[QUOTE="ToughCOINS, post: 2280848, member: 20480"]An old customer contacted me last week about a coin I had listed online and asked if he could leave an immediate deposit on it and pay the balance over the next two months (as far as I know, this is NOT a CT member). I agreed, committed the coin to him, and took it down from the website. That was last Friday. He later emailed me, indicating he'd sent me the deposit via PayPal, which I haven't seen. I confirmed that he has my correct PayPal address, and asked that he confirm it was properly sent. I haven't heard from him since. Interestingly, and perhaps not coincidentally, another coin of the same date has surfaced in auction format on eBay, and is still well below market, although I expect it will climb . . . in fact, I may well bid on it for inventory. Who here thinks this buyer spotted the other coin shortly after agreeing to buy mine, and plans to welch on our deal if he can buy the other coin for less? I'm okay with him buying the other coin, if that's what's going on, but he should not be asking me to tie my coin up if he knows he may not buy it . . . especially if he hasn't put any money down on it. Naturally, I have no proof that he hasn't tried to send me the payment, but I've seen nothing on my end, and he's not contacted me about any difficulties making a PayPal payment. I already know what I want to do, but I am also curious as to what the majority of you think is appropriate . . . - Mike[/QUOTE]
