Well, dumbest ebayer, with a feedback over 100, that is. My overseas sales, are pay-pal only, payment in British pounds only.. In case that isn't clear, I have a Square Trade seal, that spells it out, slap in the middle of each auction page.
message 1) Hi, please let me know the final price in us dollars and i will mail out your money order asap.
Thanks, Josh
message 2) (1hour later) Dear retro-technology,
Hi, i just emailed you about sending your money order out, and i still do need the final price in US dollars,.. but i think i misunderstood your description on how to pay, so if you dont except my money order ... i will send you cash.
Thanks, Josh
message 3) (12 hours later)Dear retro-technology,
I will be sending payment of GBP 5.70 via Postal Order or Banker's Draft shortly.
hi, please let me know what the total is in US dollars.
Thanks, Josh

in situations like these, I usually give up, and take US$. Which is a MAJOR pain in the arse. Cos I can't change small amounts.

yup.
With Europeans, I accept Euro cash. I can spend them in one shop in town anyway.
altough at a quite harsh exchange rate

Money orders are awful anyway. I never accept payments from abroad unless they're euro cash, or paypal.

i'd accept them for large amounts, but they never are large amounts.
There is one woman in the U.S who stalks me. Every time I list a Famicom cart, she starts bugging me. And if she wins it then From the moment she pays, until it arrives, e-mails every 6 hours.

There is a particular eBayer in the U.S.A who has become a thorn in my side.
She won £100+ worth of auctions, and then refused to pay because "it was her sisters account, she had taken it over, they were not her bids, i'd have to sort it out with her sister". Whatever. NPB filed, FVF refunded. Bidder is 'naru'd'
It's more complicated than that. For a few people, I on occasion, forwad items for them. They are not my items, I do not sell them, I simply forwad them for some of my contacts.
Never had a problem before.............. but of course, said American eBayer, is one of the people I had to forward mail to. She then sends me stroppy messgaes, saying it is not fair that I am holding her items, and I must send them at once.
My diplomatic skills, were being tested to the limit, when I replied, that they were two entirely different matters - and should be treated as such, and that I had forwaded her items for my friend.
anyway, she then bought more of my items on eBay, under a different name. Sigh.Had I known it was her, I would have cancelled the bids. A flood of e-mails accompanied each transaction, demanding to know when the items will arrive, had I sent them, what the tracking numbers are, etc etc
I got fed up with the hassle, and blocked her.
So shejust re-registered, and done a Buy-it-Now on an item.

Where does she live? Maybe one of the yankees on the board can stab her.
