I bid on a few items on ebay and won one of them. I was the high bidder on the Sam Rivers Mosaic, $75. After I won, the seller emailed me that he was not going to sell the item. He didn't give a reason. That sucked. Today I saw the Ellington Mosaic on ebay. The high bid is only 9 dollars with no reserve. That kind of strange to ask only 9 bucks.
Just last week I saw Horace Silver's "Total Response" LP and was going to bid on it. It was $9.99. But the seller wanted $15 for shipping in the US. $15 dollars to ship just one damn album:mad: Crazzy.

I hope you posted negative feedback on the Rivers seller and informed ebay. Deadbeat sellers are just as bad as deadbeat bidders, though I must say its very rare I hear of deadbeat sellers.

But basically he entered into a contract to sell the item. He's slime if he fails to.

Yeah, I should enter a negative response. Didn't yet. When I check his fee back, there were over 18 negative posts and about 30 positive posts. Not a good ratio.

That's a ratio that would have kept me from bidding at all!

Care to share his user id so we can all avoid him?

There was a Buck Clayton on there for $9.00 too.. no reserve.
As I have it I didn't investigate further, I assumed the seller figured it would sell high anyway.
was going to point it out on the BB for those unaware of it... but you know the kind of "flaming" posts that creates.
