A closing thought from the starter...
Una / Hussy / Steve, I never received your latest text saying you wanted to meet tomorrow (Wed - didn't you have to go to Kent on Wed?). So let's say you ran out of credit and the text never got sent...
I just had a strong feeling that you were trying to dodge the meetup and didn't want to sell the frame anymore, also judging from the fact that you mentioned twice to end the sale, plus the fact that you posted the ad here on these forums as well asking for considerably more money than what it went for.
Had you simply asked to end the sale because unsatisfied with the ending price or change of mind, I may have understood.
But your "frame scratched = not selling anymore" doesn't really stand as a valid reason, if you see what I mean.
One would normally say "frame scratched, sorry, if you still want it fine, otherwise end the sale".
This is eBay, and there are rules that make it what it is, bad or good. No one would be bidding anymore if auctions were allowed to end at random...
Hopefully you'll understand there were no bad intentions in this thread other than raising awareness for what happened and trying to find some advice from expert FGSSers.
