Happened again on another game that ended at 99 cents.  Different seller though.  Right after the auction ended I get the following email in from him/her:

Do NOT send payment item has been lost

I reply back with:

You know I'm gonna leave negative feedback on this if we don't complete the deal, right? You are the second guy this month that has "lost" and item that ended at 99 cents. I'm getting sick of sellers backing out of the deal because they didn't like how the auction ended. This is the risk you take when you put stuff up on ebay. Next time list it for higher if you don't want it selling so cheap.

And she (he?) gives me this response:

If I find it ill let you kno and I am a woman I have to check the box I put it on again

This person is brand new to ebay and only has one feedback (positive).  I hate to enforce the rules, but this is getting ridiculous.

If she can fit games in her box, she's probably a whore.  NEGATIVE FEEDBACK, GO!

Hey, I was watching this auction—Hannah Montana Singing Star for Wii, right? Sadly, I don't have a microphone, otherwise I would have put in a bid.

I won an item for a penny and the seller acutally shipped it   :shock: granted it was $7 in shipping.  Man you have some bad luck there.  Hope next time things go well.  also hope you get to play singing star - it really is a great game  :mrgreen:
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

The part about it being a woman is not surprising. The vast majority of sellers I have run into that do not honor auctions were women.

I've had a few instances of this sort of behavior (sellers refusing to sell items for very little money). For me the problem has actually been more with ebay power sellers than with people with only one feedback though.

That's one example, I had another super ultra mega seller (not video game specific) sell me an item for about 1/4 of what it goes for as a buy it now or on amazon. Then tell me "Sorry, we already sold the item". At which point I wrote back and asked "What do you mean you already sold it?". And they replied "We sell our items on multiple sites and it was sold on another site before ebay". So At that point I reported them to ebay for violating terms of service and left negative feedback. But being a super duper mega seller I'm sure ebay did nothing besides send them a message about it and remind them of the TOS.
