Right I am a regular poster but just in case the twat who I have dealt with is familiar with MN I don't want my details shared so I have namechanged.
Sadly my nephew was stillborn last week. My sister is a mess and still in hospital due to retained placenta and pph.
I logged on to her email (she'd asked me too) so I could email everyone and let them know the very sad news and there was a message from someone she had bought an item from asking when she was going to collect.
I wrote an email explaining why she/bil couldn't collect and offering to send a cheque so he didn't have to wait for her to pay paypal. Also told him to resell item as wouldn't be able to collect for a while and due to circumstances no longer wanted it. I thought win win for him - item and cash.
Got email back basically saying "sorry for your loss, but I don't believe you". I was so angry - I'd offered to pay and he sent this message knowing full well that sis will have to read it.
I emailed back (still at that point intending to pay what was owed) but telling him I was disgusted at his unecessary caveat to his apology- I mean what sort of a sicko makes stuff like that up?!
Have received another message - which again sister will see in ebay and I can't log in as her to delete basically saying saying I've lied on her behalf.
Until I got second shitty and threatening email I had intended to put cheque in post today but now I feel like turning up on his doorstep with photos and copies of the birth/death cert. I am raging for my sister
Item was £50 so am I unreasonable not to pay (although probably academic cos sis is so sweet that she'll make sure he is paid as soon as she is out of hospital)
Oh and soz this is so bloody long
