I searched the thread and he has been nominated for this list before. I sold a Moon Girl #5 replica to him on eBay. He hit the BIN. Over Easter he sent me three messages, all saying:
"Hi,
I received the replica copy of Moon Girl No.5 today.
There is a circular scratch mark to the left of the word "Moon" in the title.
I can feel the scratch mark with my finger. It is a defect.
This circular mark is not in the picture of the replica.
I want to return this damaged copy.
Please contact me.
Robert"
No problem. The three messages were a little overkill, but otherwise all is fine. I responded with:
"You can send it back. My return address is:
XXXXX
I'll send another copy."
He responded with:
"Hi Joe,
I mailed the Moon Girl book back to you today.
The tracking number is 9500 xxx xxx xxxx
Please send me the replacement copy and please check the condition.
Thanks,
Robert"
Again, a reasonable response. Then, the next message out of the blue is:
"THE BOOK IS ON ITS WAY BACK TO YOU.
I HAVE DECIDED THAT I DO NOT WANT ANOTHER COPY I WANT A REFUND.
IF YOU COULDN'T DO IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME I DON'T WANT TO DEAL WITH YOU WITH YOU PEOPLE.
I AM OPENING UP A COMPLAINT/BUYER PROTECTION CASE WITH EBAY THIS AFTERNOON.
I AM ALSO CONTACTING PAYPAL AND MY CREDIT CARD COMPANY TO REPORT THIS TRANSACTION.
I WANT A FULL REFUND INCLUDING MY SHIPPING."
Over two days, I get a total of 5 such messages threatening eBay, Paypal and credit card complaints. The book has been refunded and the bidder blocked.
