Not CL, Ebay, but here's my most recent seller fun. I purchase a Trek of EBay, Buy it now, local pick up. I do the buy it now, pay right away. I send the guy an email right away, "Hello! would it be possible to pick the bike up on day this week? Can you give me your address and some times that work for you?"

the bike is like 65 miles away but its at the beach so I figure i'll take my son and make a day out of it.

5 days go by, no answer. On the 6th day, now at the end of the week I wanted to pick it up I get a response.

"i never received your payment"

me
"uhh, yes you did, i paid as soon as I won, here's my receipt for paying with paypal, here's the email it went to"

two more days go by

seller " I have your payment, you can come this saturday or sunday before 2pm. i'm behind the Dairy Queen"

that would have been this weekend, including fathers day, so I said, yeah i'm sorry I can't do that, how about one evening next week?

seller - "sorry man, I'm in another state during the week. Do you want to just end the auction since it seems we can't meet up?"

Now i'm getting pissed. First the idiot doesnt even know he has the payment and waists 5 days I could have picked the bike up, now he wants to end it and is making it very hard to pick the bike up.

I told him i still want it, i can wait until a weekend i can come and get it before 2. that is unless he can take it with him to the other state he's in during the week because thats actually closer for me. That was 3 days ago, no response.

you can be damned sure i'm getting the bike and you can be damned sure he's getting negative feedback after I do.

the seller has all positive feedback btw.
