    The buyer would have been paid today if they had waited but unfortunately they said I was a horrible ebay person with unkind words and so I would rather dismiss their items. They do sell great products for a good value however.

    We agree upon a price of $250, and then within hours after accepting your offer you ask me to lower the price to $148. After I refuse and say we're going to have to stick to the terms of the bid, you tell me you only have $167, and conclude with "G-d d----t, gotta cancel." This is no way to do business.
