Hi ya, gpg...sorry that this guy found you! Love is right, you should usually go with your gut feeling, but I would also do a little more detective work. I had a similar situation recently ~ potential buyer asked a question, so of course I checked her feedback left and found several negs, however when I checked the sellers that she/he had left the negs for, they looked as if they were all deserved...seller cancelling the sale for out of stock, which is usually a euphemism for "I didn't get as much money as I wanted when the auction ended" and will earn the seller a big ol' fat defect of the deadly kind!
@theguitarpartsguy Don't stay away so long...we miss you!
Hey Hidy! Haven't been away intentionally, it has just been really busy at work... the store I work at was nominated by the International Music Products Association as a top 100 dealer worldwide, and we are also up for best store design award, again worldwide. Awards ceremony is at the NAMM show this Friday night... it's a pretty cool honor, whether we win or not. We stay after it pretty hard and try to keep the shop very modern-looking.
With regard to this potential buyer, he just had complaints about both items he left bad feedback for. I could tell by the nature of his questions and how he asked them that he wasn't someone I really wanted to deal with. NOT worth my rep on eBay for a $40 sale to a guy who has left one third of his feedback in a manner that was VERY detrimental to his sellers. I'll just stay far away from that...LOL.
