Irony

[OldGuy]

I had an auction end about a month ago and just now (yesterday) received payment. The buyer had one excuse after another for why he wasn't paying ($13.99), but I was patient and polite and I was happy to get the payment.

 

In a twist of irony that's just priceless I proceed to send his comics to the wrong person yesterday after I got his payment. The person I sent them to is being helpful in the matter, and the original buyer should be getting his books sometime late next week.

 

When it's all said and done I will be even on the $$ end of things, but with the extra shipping costs I'll be paying I'll basically be giving these comics away for free. I guess I'm the April fool in this situation.

Been there....done that. I actually lost money on the transaction....

 

Noted it as the price of doing business on eBay....

i suppose things could have been worse oldguy. the person you incorrectly sent it to could have imagined that christmas came by twice this year.

Been there done that too. I sent a book to the wrong person once. Fortunately he was one of the nice guys and just forwarded it on for me.

 

I double and triple check every packing slip now.

...send his comics to the wrong person yesterday

 

i am SOOO paranoid about doing that.

 

i quadruple check EVERYTHING and then i check again...

Me to........now.

 

The guy I sent them to is being totaly cool and sending the books directly to the guy that won them, so I'm only out about $6.00 in shipping. No harm done.
