Item: BNWT! Emily The Strange "Emily’s Bad Art Gallery" Black T-shirt (S size)

URL: http://page.auctions.shopping.yahoo.com/sg/auction/83296399

Buyer: wj_cher

Dearest buyer wj_cher bidded the buy price of $20 on Dec 17 18:54.

On that day, I was out from 5 pm and only came back till 1:30 am. Of course I was too tired to check my emails.

The next morning, I had a rude shock.

wj_cher, with no apparent reason, gave me a bad rating.

And the comments given were: Title: BNWT! Emily The Strange "Emily’s Bad Art Gallery" Black T-shirt (S size) which of course was nonsensical, considering that I haven’t even emailed her the payment details yet!

Being a bit baffled and angry, I of course gave her a Bad Rating and left these comments at her rating board:

Hi. The auction for that T-shirt closed 5 hrs when you rated me BAD. Please kindly explain. Not too sure if it's a mistake on your part on not. Will revert your ratings if you get back to me at zel_pastababe@yahoo.com (Dec 18 09:42 2003 SGT)

Then I thought that I might as well email her the payment details. So I posted these on her rating board::

I've also emailed you the payment details in case you are a sincere buyer. You have 3 days to make payment. Otherwise, this bad rating stays. :) Thank you for your time. (Dec 18 09:47 2003 SGT)

Was in the midst of pressing the SEND button of the email and then decided not to. Thus, I posted another message to her on her her rating board:

I've changed my mind abt emailing you the payment details. If I do not receive any email from you by tomorrow Fri Dec 19, I'd assume you're not interested in the T-shirt and I'd just resubmit it.

At Dec 18 18:02 2003 SGT,

wj_cher reverted my former Bad Ratings to Good and this was his/her comments as seen on my rating board:

Sorry..i din noe i rate u as bad..

I emailed this to her immediately:

Hi

I am not too sure what you are up to exactly by first awarding me with a BAD rating and then reverting it to GOOD. I'd revert your rating once payment's made.

Email me again when you've done so.

Thanks.

Zel

Anyway, I’ve cancelled her bids, reported her to Yahoo! Admin and blacklisted her.

Sellers, you decide if you want to deal with a person who makes a mockery out of Yahoo! Auctions.
