O noble eBay experts, I have sold a lens - but as you will see the auction clearly stated that it was UK only - unless I was emailed first. In the event, the lens was won by an Italian bidder who even sent me a checkout for the winning bid plus �6 postage - which was specifically identified as Royal Mail Special Delivery - a UK only postage method.
<http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3800813776> I have emailed the winner, who included these lines in the ebay checkout: ---------------------------- I will be sending payment of �186.00 via International Money Order shortly. Hi I win the CANON EOS EF 85mm f1.8 USM LENS BOXED . How can I pay it you???? Only... not by PayPal. Thank you. Nicola Barghi - Kriminal1980 ----------------------------- But he has so far not responded to my 2 emails directly to him: ------------------------------- I see you have bid and won my lens - are you aware that the auction clearly stated that the auction was open to UK bidders ONLY unless emailed first ? I assume you are happy to pay in UK funds and can provide an address in the UK for the lens to go to? Please respond to this email immediately or I will relist the item and leave appropriate feedback. Thanks, ------------------------------------------- and -------------------------------------------- >I will be sending payment of �186.00 via International Money Order shortly. > > >Hi I win the CANON EOS EF 85mm f1.8 USM LENS BOXED .

The �6 postage WAS FOR UK POSTAGE ONLY. YOU MUST PROVIDE A UK SHIPPING ADDRESS OR THE AUCTION WILL BE CANCELLED AND THE ITEM RELISTED. I WILL NOT SEND THE LENS TO ITALY - IT MUST BE A UK ADDRESS. PLEASE REPLY TO THIS EMAIL OR THE AUCTION WILL BE CANCELLED, YOU DID NOT READ THE INSTRUCTIONS PROPERLY. -------------------------------------------------- Am I taking the right line or do you think I am too soft or too hard? Any advice gratefully received. First time it's happened to me. His feedback is not many, but seems good. There was a second-highest bidder, if I get no further reply, should I offer it to that using 'Second Chance Offer'. What action can I take?? What would you do next?? Many thanks.
