That guy that messaged me 10 times wrote a book in my feedback profile (what he wrote here is very similar to the jibberish I got in messages). He ran out of room and started messaging me again.
I had notifications on his coin to see when it arrived, which was yesterday. I've been waiting for a storm of messages from this guy.

Watch, he'll buy another item just to continue it.
What does his fb for other sellers look like? the same?

It was a big mistake when ebay increased the feedback characters, and unnecessary.

Agreed. You don't compensate for the lack of quantity or make it more attractive by increasing the capacity of the already failed item.

No he won't. After the first inappropriate message I blocked him. But I shipped his coin to try and avoid too much drama. He seems happy with the coin, so I don't have to answer any more messages.

Maybe lonely?

I had problems with a toon on a cut coin necklace. He was yowling about filing for an SNAD because the item didn't match the description. In two separate messages. It did, to a T, and thank goodness I checked before replying because it was still for sale. I didn't respond, blocked the toon and reported him to eBay for abuse and took the necklace down for good measure.
Coins seem to attract people either off their meds or in need of some.

Be thankful it was positive. The extra characters stick out even more when neg or neu. Add to the fact people try to condense and squeeze in as much as possible it doesn't always make sense. With your 122 feedbacks this month it will disappear in about a week. I sell much less and mine will take a month.

Wait until he finds out he resides on your BBL......lol
Blocked from buying but not messages.
(Again, I never wish to sell coins!)

Surprised this was a medallion and not a Loonie ("Loony") (sorry, bad joke)

Yeah, I said coin, but it was a Canadian commemorative silver medallion of sorts.
To me all round metal things are coins.

Oh, yeah, lonely and wanting to chitchat. At least he doesn't seem hostile...
I think he's assuming that he's talking to a fellow collector rather than a seller who is paying attention to him (at least temporarily) because he bought something, similar to a car salesman who pretends to be fascinated by your witty commentary because he just wants to sell you a car. Your buyer thus wants to talk about everything under the sun. Hopefully when you stop responding he will go on to someone else. (What does his Feedback Left for Others look like?)

Agree with those thinking he's lonely..
He probably had no idea there was a limit on FB and was writing as if it were another PM..

It's kind of sweet. I like that kind message better than the alternative. Probably lives in a very small limited number of people community, just trying to reach out. I'd probably chat a little with him if it was me.

At least it was Positive and all you can really do is laugh about it. I found it amusing myself. lol
