I can't remember who was discussing their ebay issues or if the problem was related,
but apparently ebay is wacked this holiday season! Beware if you are buying off ebay
(at the moment)! Maybe they're not equipped to handle the high volume or something,
but something fishy's going on.

A word to the wise: Make sure you contact the seller in person if you are having
payment problems.

Hi,
Thanks for writing to clear this up. Ebay is having trouble with the volume
of sales right now. I am finding many mistakes regarding payment and the
way Ebay records the payments. If you received the item from me, then I
received your payment. I will straighten out the confusion over this item.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience it caused you.
Happy Holidays!
Karen
