Message:: [QUOTE="Saor Alba, post: 768933, member: 21607"]When I sold stuff on fleeceBay I had some items sell at ridiculous prices, one way or the other.  In the end it all seemed to even out, which is why I did not fret when stuff sold for a pittance.  I sold other items at three times what they were worth to me, because someone or a group of someones really wanted them.  Those profits balanced out the losses on other stuff. Buying stuff, I have bought stuff for a pittance also and the seller not only honoured the sale, but packed the items well, and sent them quickly.  I bought a set of Irish banknotes last year from Centurial Collectables and the auction closed at about 20% of catalogue value.  They sent the banknotes quickly, securely and gave a quick feedback even though they could have been like the OP's seller.  As a result, I have looked at their website and bought quite a bit more stuff from them since then.  So in summary, sellers should honour the sale make someone's day and take a short loss.  It all evens out in the end, and unlike the "Don't get mad, get even" types that threaten lawsuits and want to go to the trouble of going to someone's home and shoot up the place because their personal lives are a miserable sort, the rest of us try to get along and treat our fellow people as we expect to be treated.[/QUOTE]
