If you didn't trsut him, why did you bid. The auction I looked at only ended Aug 10- - the guy could simply be out of town.

I have several auctions where it's taken 7 to 10 days for people to get back to me...

reading comprehension my son.

"I dont trust him now"  means now, after what has happened.

Yup... that seems to be the thing with some of the
EBay sellers now.

A month or so ago I bid on and won an A3000 (nicely equiped)
My bid met his reserve but I guess he wanted more.
He didn't respond to my EMails. I guess its cheaper for
them to keep it and list it again later than to let it
go for what was bid.
That is what a reserve is for, to at least get your
bottom price. His reserve was actually a little more
than the usual going price but I thought 'What the Hell'

I would really like to have had that A3000.

You have to remember not everyone is a Computer Geek and online checking emails every other second.  Give the guy a few more days or a week.  He may be out of town. Maybe an accident?  Have you tried calling him?

I have had this happen before.  Actually I was on the other side recently.  I injured my knee real bad (tore my ACL!) and could not get out of the house let alone out of the bed to go online for over a week.  Yes I about died! lol  I had sold a item on eBay and had not shipped it out yet.  When I finally did send it out the buyer was so pissed off.  Crap happens, life sucks... lol

he replied quickly during the auction, after (about 2 hrs later after it ended) he replied then nothing.  Well, if not I guess it'll be ok cause I bought 2 more A500's other then those two.
