I sold two individual items to 1223coo on ebay, a man with impeccable feedback. His name is tomiaki hotta
who runs the very dubious looking website www.out-put.net . A clearly wealthy and not untypical of Japan, collector of punk memorabilia. Despite the recent shit weather in the UK, causing severe delays with postage and despite his refusal to pay for International Signed for postage, the IDIOT launched an early dispute against me with Paypal, who immediately froze the $261.00 he sent for the items. Despite having said they would wait until January 4 2011 to give the post a little more time, I awake today to an email and subsequent phone call at my expense with the case closed and no reasonable explanation as to why the set date was not adhered to.
Morals for this story - don't neccesarily assume that 4300 positive, 100% feedback on ebay means a person is honourable, sensible or decent. I have been fucked up the arse on Christmas Eve for £165, selling in part, a treasured item of mine for over 30 years due to the fact that I am ill and out of work - not even to buy a holiday or a jet-ski, just to pay my fucking BILLS! What was it Churchill said? "Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. but it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning."
Watch this space.
