Quick! What would you do? Cancellation request....

[moo*cow*corner]

A buyer with low FB just purchased qty 3 from a listing.

Sent me a message that she only wants qty 1, not 3.

I don't see any way to cancel a partial qty from an order.

Would you---

A. Cancel the entire order and ask her to repurchase qty 1, risking that she may just go away and not rebuy? Qty of 1 plus shipping would be a $56.95 sale I don't want to lose.

or

B. Confirm her request thru messages, do a partial refund thru Paypal, ship the qty 1 and then call ebay to get FVF refunded? FVF to be refunded would be in the neighborhood of ~$10.

This is somewhat better than no sales at all, but jeez o' Pete....sigh....

At the moment, I'm leaning toward option B...

Thanks ya'll.

That's ok. No judgment here. That kind of music seems to be something one either loves or hates.

After 25 years of waiting, I finally got to see Weird Al in concert a few years ago. A musical genius. Front row balcony seats in a beautiful old vintage theater. I actually cried.

Yup, I'm strange. That's ok too.

Oh, I used to be a fan of Weird Al.  Do you know the song, One more minute (With You)?  It's hysterical.

One More Minute

Alfred Matthew Yankovic

Ah

Well I heard that you're leavin' (leavin')
Gonna leave me far behind (so far behind)
'Cause you found a brand new lover
You decided that I'm not your kind (ahh)

So I pulled (I pulled) your name out (name out) of my Rolodex (oh)
And I tore all your pictures in two
And I burned down the malt shop where we used to go
Just because it reminds me of you (dippity dippity doo)

That's right (that's right) you ain't gonna see me cryin'
I'm glad (I'm glad) that you found somebody new
'Cause I'd rather spend eternity eating shards of broken glass
Than spend one more minute with you

I guess I might seem kinda bitter
You got me feeling down in the dumps
'Cause I'm stranded all alone in the gas station of love
And I have to use the self-service pumps

Oh, so honey, let me help you with that suitcase
You ain't (you ain't) gonna break my heart in two
'Cause I'd rather get a hundred thousand paper cuts on my face
Than spend one more minute with you

I'd rather rip out my intestines with a fork
Than watch you going out with other men
I'd rather slam my fingers in a door (yeah)
Again and again and again and again and again

Oh, can't you see what I'm tryin' to say, Darlin'

I'd rather have my blood sucked out by leeches (leeches)
Shove an icepick under a toenail or two
I'd rather clean all the bathroom in Grand Central Station with my tongue
Than spend one more minute with you

Yes, I'd rather jump naked on a huge pile of thumbtacks
Or stick my nostrils together with crazy glue
I'd rather dive into a swimming pool filled with double-edged razor blades
Than spend one more minute with you

I'd rather rip my heart out of my ribcage with my bare hands
And then throw it on the floor and stomp on it 'till I die
Than spend one more minute with you

Absolutely! One of my favorites!

The jukebox in my head has a HUGE Weird Al section. I can sing along with probably at least 80% of his entire catalogue.

Including (wait for it) ---  Ebay.  I found it on Ebay

There. We are still on topic.

If you liked that one, his other great breakup song is--

You Don't Love Me Anymore by Weird Al Yankovic

We've been together for so very long
But now things are changing, oh I wonder what's wrong?
Seems you don't want me around
The passion is gone and the flame's died down

I guess I lost a little bit of self-esteem
That time that you made it with the whole hockey team
You used to think I was nice
Now you tell all your friends that I'm the Antichrist

Oh, why did you disconnect the brakes in my car?
That kind of thing is hard to ignore
Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore

I knew that we were having problems when
You put those piranhas in my bathtub again
You're still the light of my life
Oh darling, I'm beggin', won't you put down that knife?

You know, I even think it's kinda cute the way
You poison my coffee just a little each day
I still remember the way that you laughed
When you pushed me down that elevator shaft

Oh, if you don't mind me asking, what's this poisonous cobra
Doing in my underwear drawer?
Sometime I get to thinking you don't love me any more

You slammed my face down on the barbecue grill
Now my scars are all healing, but my heart never will
You set my house on fire
You pulled out my chest hairs with an old pair of pliers

Oh, you think that I'm ugly and you say that I'm cheap
You shaved off my eyebrows while I was asleep
You drilled a hole in my head
Then you dumped me in a drainage ditch and left me for dead

Oh, you know this really isn't like you at all
You never acted this way before
Honey, something tells me you don't love me any more, oh no no
Got a funny feeling you don't love me anymore

Alright, I'm a 60's baby, how come I have no idea what you guys are talking about?

Probably because you actually had a life in the 70's?   

As opposed to sitting in your room on a Sunday night listening to the radio while hammering out the homework for school on Monday...and waiting for Dr. Demento....which is what I was usually doing...

Update-
This buyer did return to the ad and bought the last lot of 2 bowls available in that listing. I relisted the 3 lots from the cancelled order as a new listing.

After she got the order of one lot delivered, she promply ordered another lot from the new listing. The new order shipped today, and I'm sure that she will be pleased with those too.

And to add to the recent seller weirdness, she gave me great feedback...not on ebay, but via text message from her phone to my mobile ebay number that is printed on my packing slips. Huh.

Not complaining!
