<VV> Ebay Corvair Parts Warning

[Alan and Clare Wesson]

What is interesting to me about this is that she never seems to leave 
retaliatory negative feedback to those who leave it for her.

Either she is the most amazingly conciliatory person or (as I surmise) her 
life is in crisis or something, and she lists this stuff and then never gets 
round to doing anything about it.

No comfort, I know - but in almost every instance of looking up neg 
feedbacks on eBay, if you look up the reverse feedback it is negative. This 
person just doesn't seem to leave any. The only feedbacks she has left for 
anyone since November are all the same - ' Great ebayer A++++++++++'.

Hardly imaginative, I know - but not exactly poisonous and vindictive, which 
is what I would have expected.

Cheers

Alan
