I have an item, put up before, so I relist it after a very long time... so someone bids on it... I don't know why I did this, (because I usually don't bother with this at all) but I clicked on the feedback ... (799) and wow, nice praises... then (again, something I don't do) I clicked on 'Feedback Left' well this BUYER has left 27 feedback, only THREE are positive.
It looked strange, so I read some of the negs... EXTREMLY HIGH SHIPPING with a response that said, 'It was only $3.85 as stated in the auction.
Well my shipping on this is $3.85.
Would anyone forsee a problem with this guy?
All his neg fb left was all about shipping, like a vigilante on shipping or S/H charges.

My sentiments exactly. I would cancel and block. Even with his high feedback rating, the only feedback you can expect from him probably won't be good.
The light at the end of the tunnel will turn out to be an oncoming train.

I had one like that. At the time he had nearly 500 positives and 10 negs. He had left over 100 negs as feedback. NO POSITIVES AT ALL. Every neg had a complaint about the seller not accepting a business check or high shipping charges.
I canceled his bid. He is now NARU with lots of negs for being a problem bidder. I am sure he signed up under another name and is hassling some seller as I type.
Ok if I cancel his bid, how would I word it, or do I need to? You know, after all this time, I've never had to cancel anyone on an auction. Doesn't it need explanation. Yes, I could use one that read Leaves nothing but Negatives.
I went through all his negatives! All shipping. Up to the latest, which was still available, and looked, and there it was, the EXACT Priority shipping stated.
Most said that he only sent $1.50-2 when it was stated $3.85. His response to those would be, thats all it costs.
I really felt for those sellers, all who gave him praises, and he did that to him. Glancing at his fb, he must pay by PayPal.
He does have something like 1000 pos with 799 being unique, and 9 negatives.
Been registered since '99.
Do 'vigilante buyers' have time to buy all this, and then p*ss on every seller? This is incredible.
