The winner of the auction refuses to pay up. Here's the story.
The guy emailed me about a day before the auction ended, and asked me to cancel his bid because he thought it included the shock. I was going to do it, but then I asked him why he didn't do it himself.. I wasn't quite sure how to cancel his bid. He replies back with it being too long, and not letting him. I was fine with that, but the next comment sort of set me off (I'll admit, I was in a bad mood and I should have just found out how to cancel the bid to save me some trouble) - he told me that the picture was deceiving because it had the fork in it. Okay, I understand his point, but I didn't have a very long item description. I listed the parts that were going with the auction, and then listed at the bottom that the fork and wheel weren't a part of it.
He ended up winning, and his emails went on to say that it was falsely advertised, that I wasn't truthful, I was a scam artist, etc etc. Prior to his 2nd email to me, I had checked out his email and saw a negative feedback. This has been on going, with him refusing to recognize that I didn't advertise it falsely. Heck, am I supposed to list that those boots and boxes aren't included in the auction too? I've never had to deal with this before, but I won't be making the mistake of using a picture like that again for a similar auction. It just so happened that I had lent the digital camera to a friend, and we HAD to get rid of this frame, so up it went, with the best picture I could find.
He's told me to call him, implying that he was just going to try and reason this with me (about how I'm wrong). I replied saying that I don't have the time to deal with that, if you didn't read the item description, it should be your fault, and you should follow through with the auction. He ended up requesting my information from ebay, and called me.
His attitude over the phone was horrible. Straight on the offensive side, and it didn't make me feel like I wanted to deal with him any further. I told him to give me his shipping address and method of payment, or I'll just report him to ebay. He started up again, and I said, that's enough. Do it, and that's all I have to say, and hung up. The guy proceeded to call me back numerous times, and even left me 3 pleasant voicemails, which I've uploaded below.

I've also received 2 emails from ebay, one titled: Urgent fraud prevention group notice, and the other titled: TKO Notice: Urgent Safeharbor Department Notice. Is that his doing? I'm not quite sure what to do here.
If this guy happens to be on RM, that's fine. I'm not afraid of anything, I don't think I did anything that was totally wrong. Judgin by his tone and his method of speech, I'd say he's either young or really immature. Threatening to pay me a visit? Kind of childish.. how should I go about handling this?

neaky:
He's more than welcome to kick my butt, but he can choose to deal with the cops or another huge group of guys - I doubt he'd be comin out here with a plane full of people :eviltongu
