GOOD Job Channing! congrats to you. see its not what he did , but what you did that matters as he may be a rip off, or crazy or whatever... But you handled it in a good way. When people duke it out on ebay they end up spending so much time and money and it also can make you stressed, so responding kindly not only shows the customers and ebay that you are trying to negotiate a fair settlement and that's what's important. Also as we have seen on Mopo anyone that is dishonest or does poor business eventually builds a track record and never seems to last.. So if the greek Buyer is not being honest he will lose his ability to bid or more. Why people do this I suspect is because they are angry or have issues with desiring items they can not afford or they feel they can pull of scams. >From what I have seen it never seems to last long and they regret it. You did the right thing and can sleep.. If he wasn't honest well he has to sleep with it its great exercise
