Buyer sends this last Night after buying and paying for his #665 Cubs WS Card...about 8 PM while me and my wife were out having a steak dinner and drinks (About a $200 night):
Them: Just paid for this
I need tracking confirmation as always. .penny sleeve, top loader, bubble wrap and bubble mailer.. "if tracking is not included, I have no problem sending you an extra buck or so"
. please no paperwork or pricing with it as always as it is shipping to a gift recipient, hence why I need tracking, to make sure it gets there.... please send the tracking # ASAP... THANKS a ton my friend!
(First off I should have never answered this...I can see right away there will be no pleasing this person...but alas I answer this morning after I get through my work e-mail)
ME: Will pack it up and send it out first thing in the morning! (It is the best I can do...I mean I am at work will get off at 5 pack it up and take it to the post office during a break tomorrow, just like I do every other card I sell...once again I should not have replied)
Them: This morning? I paid last night.. its the holidays and it needs to be shipped asap.. Please no paper work or pricing info with it as its a GIFT
Please send the tracking # asap
Thanks
(Good grief...what am I suppose to do? Leave work, go home and get your card (wrap it as described)...I mean can't miss the extra layer of bubble wrap! "AS ALWAYS!" take it to the post office and mail it out??? For a $12.22 card. Sorry but taking a few hours off to take care of this is not part of the bargain! At this time I want out! Why me why do I always get these "BUYERS"?)
ME: Best I can do...I have a day job. If you want I can refund you and you can buy from someone else.
THEM: I have a job too.... it takes 2 mins to ship it through the ebay system and send me the tracking # just about the amount of time it took you to emai me twice
I want the card... ship it when you have time.. Thanks
(Why put a smiley face...your not smiling or joking! You are talking to me like I'm a F'n idiot!) I say to myself: I'm never getting positive feedback from this guy, even if I put gold bars in the envelope! Why did I even reply? Why do I even sell cards?!...life is too short to deal with these folks and Christmas present or not I am sure this card will be coming back as not meeting the standard!
ME: I can not access eBay while at work...I apologize.
So far thankfully there has been no reply! I'm honestly looking forward to the negative feedback I will be getting...after that welcome to my blocked list...I mean who needs this type of aggravation for $3.25 profit? It didn't even cover one drink from dinner last night...
