I recently had an item(panties)that would not sell. It was very low cost so I started the auction at .99 and that ended up being the final bid. The winner contacted me and stated that they wuld just send $1 concealed in an envelope. I went ahead and sent the item(no reason in making a bid deal over $1). I received their payment today and they even threw in an additional $1. Great! Well, as I was going through the mail, I found another payment(money order)from the same buyer in the amount of $58! There was a yellow post-it note on the payment that stated:

non-auction
66 pairs of panties
Thank You!

Along with their address. I can only assume that they think I have a number of these items(which I do not)and even if I did, what makes them think I would just sell them without them asking first? What should I say to this person?

Just return the money order since there was no agreement for selling 66 additional items.
Tell them you didn't have that many items

A panties thread. Is this something new?

Hmmm, I'd almost be tempted to see how cheaply I could buy 66 pairs of panties from the Goodwill for.

I would just return their MO with a note stating that unfortunately you do not have the merchandise to sell in bulk.

I would email them and ask what it is for. I have received payments in the past that were meant for another seller. Maybe they made a deal with another Panty seller and put your address on the envelope by mistake.

Can't you buy cheap panties at the K-Mart or Wal-Mart for less that $0.99 each?

Then go buy 66 pairs and send them to him.

p.s. In case you haven't realized it, this guy is a pervert. Some guys are really into panties.

The buyer is not a guy...it is a lady that has a little girl(they were girls' panties and I didn't notice it when I bought them). Moderator, you can lock this thread up now. Thanks!

There's also the possibility that this buyer sent an e-mail (or thought he did but didn't hit "send," and is assuming you got it.

Or that he's just a simple pervert, as suggested above!

My favorite clerk in the lingerie dept. of Nordstrom here told me once that she has regular male customers (cross dressers) who come in during slack times, like the dinner hour, when people aren't around, to try on the items in her dressing rooms.

My eyes are constantly opening wider as I learn more about our world!!!!
