I bought a monopod and manfrotto ballhead and had it shipped to me without any hassle. It was as smooth of a transaction as it could be. Great seller.

I wasn't going to bother responding, but that comment bothered me. This kind of attitude probably won't win you many friends here. Kind of surprising that you would manage a 100% rating on eBay. Not like it means anything here. Best of luck.

"unfortunate circumstances" happen for a reason. it is all about how you do business which you will obviously never understand anyway. i have been selling on ebay for over 10+ years with a 100% rating, so i know full well how a proper person does business.

the support from the 580 ex buyer that lives 10 minutes away is case in point.
For future reference... unless a sale is local and is face to face chances are that 99% of the listings here will be Paypal based.

If you dont use paypal, then you have to be prepared to miss out on certain items. Sorry.

Sellers should also ALWAYS post what forms of payment they receive in order to minimize confusion. This is just being considerate. That does not mean that the seller should have posted "no certified wells fargo bank checks". typical listings would be "Paypal Only" or "Cash Only in Person"
