What does the Yashica kit consist of? I have a Lynx 14 Bill KG4LOV [EMAIL PROTECTED]
----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 02, 2002 6:13 PM Subject: OT: my disappearing buyers (a mystery) > I've been trying to unload an accessory kit for a Yashica rangefinder. The original buyer never sent the money ($60+), so after a week or so I emailed. His wife replied that he had had a heart attack, was in grave condition in the hospital, and would not be out for some time. > > Another buyer inquired whether the kit was still available. I explained the situation, adding that if the first buyer hadn't paid within a month, I'd politely ask his wife if I could sell it. > > A month passed; the wife consented; I informed the second buyer, who promised she'd get to the bank in a couple days to send me a money order, apologizing for the wait. I offered to send the kit anyway. She wrote back, "Are you sure that's OK?" I replied, "No one has cheated me yet." > > Well, it's been two weeks, and I still don't have her money. She hasn't responded to three emails, sent to four email addresses. I don't believe I used receipt confirmation (USPS), not that it makes a difference in this case. > > She doesn't seem like someone who would cheat a seller; her name checks out as real, she's posted messages to photo.net, where she testified that another seller was honest when she bought a Contax G-1. (She ain't poor.) She's also bought Rollei stuff. > > What am I to think? Did something probably happen to her? If she was sent out of town on business, surely she could check her email. I can't believe she'd stiff me over a $60 kit. > > Why is this Yashica kit the only item I've sold to have this happen--not once, but twice? It's like the 2001 mystery: Why did three European dealers who claimed to have the Rikenon 55/1.2K not reply to my emails? That lens; no other. > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > mail2web - Check your email from the web at > http://mail2web.com/ . > - > This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
