I bidded for this item that i didnt want (accidents happen!) and when i unfortunately won it as noone else bidded i decided to play dead. So a week goes by and the guys e-mailing me for payment and eventually he tells me if i dont contact him within 48 hours he will report me... So i stopped playing dead and said to him, my son bidded and its all his fault blah de blah, sorry!! I cant buy your item!. He e-mails me back sayin how i should be responsible for my kids etc etc, hes still gonna report me. I told him hes a b**tard and he dosent have kids as they somtimes get outta control. He said he does. I said i felt sorry for them. He said he will report me for my attitude and slightly bad BUT CENSORED! language.

Will they do anything?

PS I dont actually have a kid. It was a better excuse than "i was stupid and did it by accident" or "i was drunk and didnt know what i was doing"

This is from the guy on ebay:

Hello to one and all. My name is Haggis and I am the author of the auction
in question. I would have posted in person however it seems that Aol users
cannot use these forums:( so I have asked the guy that caused all this storm
to post on my behalf.)
I have read the forum thread with some interest (and thank you for the link
that was emailed to me by the various peeps( you know who you are :) thanks
)) ,it has provided some laughter for us here in Haggisville, on otherwise
what would have been a dull and boring day. I thank you all for all your
support, comments, interest and opinions, they are most appreciated and
welcome and I agree with the majority, however I ask you all to remember
that to err is only human, and everyone had to start somewhere, sure this
guy had some bad advice and done the wrong thing to start, but lets not
forget that he done the right thing in the end and that is what counts, I
believe that he is only a youngster especially in the ebay ways and
therefore my philosphy is that everyone deserves a second chance. We need to
be able to learn from our mistakes and I hope that this has been a learning
experiance for this young chap. With this said I have decided to conclude
this matter and not strike against his name as I believe that this was just
a momentry lapse of sanity :).
thank you for listening and I hope that everyone has a good day.

Ain't that the truth. They treat it like a big game.

What's going to happen is that he'll report you to ebay as a non-paying bidder. That will go on your record and the third one will get you booted off ebay.

Lied - yes, what he dosent know wont hurt him, only reason you all think this is so bad is because i TOLD YOU i lied :)

Cursed - a little, the b word... once.. i found him to not be particularly understanding.... What if i DID have a kid and what i said was true??

Ruined auction - no, i was the only bidder, thats why i won.

You realize that he may very well have been charged money because of that auction?

Do you not see how much of a jerkoff you are for your actions?

All of 35p.... Im sure that BROKE his wallet. I was the only bidder, had i not bidded the outcome would have been the same. He would STILL have lost money. If there was other bidders i would gladly refund the listing price.
