OK, because of stupid crap in the past, Brian and I have one eBay account under my name. And one Paypal account also under my name. (Not griping about this; I don't mind.)

Brian bid on a couple things this past weekend and won. I recieved an email today ...

Quote:
Hello there, this is regarding an item you've won. It has been a couple days since the auction ended and I haven't received payment yet. Please respond letting me know what is going on.. If I do not receive a response by Tuesday afternoon (7/15) I will assume you plan on not paying for the item. I just hope this isn't the case.
This auction ended July 11th at 18:30 PDT (which is what? a couple hours behind me in EDT?) I got the email at 5:16pm last night.

He didn't even bill us!

So, I responded ...

Quote:
I have every intent to pay for this. That is why I bidded on it. However, I would like to have the check clear my bank (probably today) first.

Plus, I'm pretty sure ebay gives me a week before you are allowed to call me a non-payer. Four days, last I looked, is not a week.
Studip people! Bill me before griping after three days!

Don't you love getting the notices from hubby's little shopping trips? I get a amazon purchase confirmation at least once a week. ^_^

I don't mind using my accounts. It's not like they were gifts for me or anything. What really ticks me off, though, is that he spent a good twenty bucks on stuff we don't need and really can't afford right now because I'm not working. Oh, and guess what? That check I wrote him Friday for the pizza he said he would get and then couldn't afford? paid for these two auctions of his.

Rick is always bidding on stuff we can't afford. He does tell me about them (after the fact), then grumbles when I tell him we can't afford it. Tough! Check the account BEFORE you bid!

From the seller ...

Quote:
wasn't meant to offend, I've just had a few cases of people forgetting about paying. I just want to make sure I don't have anyone ignoring their bids.
My response in total and complete sincerity ...

Sorry for being snipy. A tree-sized branch fell on our van this past weekend. I'm a bit stressed out right now and I'm sorry for taking it out on you.

Glad they were nice about it. Most people realize that others sometimes just have a bad day.
