Crazy!!!??? What was the buyer of your item thinking, that the item would magically land in her / his lap the moment they paid for it ??

I am determined NOT to 'wear' my situation either. Haven't actually rung ebay yet but if I hear nothing in response to my email to them by the end of Monday, I will be on that phone telling them exactly what I think of their defective 'defect' system and making a few demands.

Don't know how far it will get me, though ! Might just make me feel better to vent to a live ebay rep !!
