He pretends? If so, then he should not be trusted. I wouldn't give him any information unless he provides proof like email correspondances and I would notify the other person too. You never know what the story is unless you hear both sides. Or, you could just ignore him and save the headaches.
Personally, I would ignore him. Who's fault is it when you deal outside Ebay without any kind escrow for large ticket items...just asking for trouble.

I just figured out WHY ME..I sold the purported seller a postcard ! I looked at this feedback and he is a BUYER and not SELLER on eBay with 400+ positive feedbacks. I will forward this email on to him....and not answer the iwona person! Sounds like ID theft to me!

Jeeze, why would anyone buy a computer from italy when there are so many of them right here??
This iwona has a card or two missing from the deck in the first place.

Neglus..
She could have picked any one of those 400 sellers that left feedback for him, but the point is she picked YOU. Maybe today is your day. If I were you, I'd run out right now and buy a lottery ticket....just in case.

Sparz..today she picked me...she only has two feedbacks so she must just get one "contact ebay member" per day. I copied the email and sent it on to my buyer and suggested that he might want to straighten it out. His feedback does not indicate he would pull anything like that so I suspect someone is CLAIMING to be him when trying to sell computers (probably through spam mail) outside of eBay. I haven't heard back from him yet. I am not going to answer iwona. Maybe tomorrow she will pick somebody else!

Neglus..
I noticed he had a feedback of 471 with no negs, all since March of this year. He's now bidding on over 300 auctions. It doesn't look like he's ever sold anything. Where would he find time to sell, anyway? I'm thinking possibly an impersonater also. Glad you tipped him off.
