Thumbs down Ebay Auctioneer To Avoid

I was looking at these side markers on Ebay and noticed they stated were for Blazer rear side markers.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...category=33715

I emailed seller that they were for the front markers and that Blazers don't have rear side markers, as the tail lights acts as them. Instead of a thank you I got a rude email reply from a Heidi, essentially to stop emailing her comments, read the auction, and essentially mind my own business as the buyer knows what he/she wants. I emailed her back one more time and told her I was considering buying from them, but with the comment returned, I won't deal with you and I hope my fellow forum members will avoid you like the plague.

It's funny how people can be so rude when they know they're in the wrong. I emailed an ebay seller once because he had what he claimed to be an all original rust free 1st gen Z28. He said it was numbers matching, and gave the suffix code of the block. The code he gave was a truck code, so I sent him an email letting him know he may have mistyped something. When he edited his listing, he said something to the effect of "thanks to a knit-picking ebayer, I was informed of a typo in the block code", and it went on to the correct code.

I just don't understand some people, you can be nice to them, and they just treat you like sh*t.

I get a TON of emails every morning from Ebay members. 9 out of 10 the question is answered in the description. It really burns me when they email and ask if the 30 over pistons are for a 30 over bore. Or if a gasket set for 80-89 will fit a 96. WTH?!?!?

I'm not saying that this is what your question was like, but I have 1100 items on Ebay almost daily. When I get 400 emails to go through along with orders everyday, some of my email responses can be kinda not nice.

They DO have excellent feedback.

Those are for certain stepsides, right? Not that I would buy from them, but didn't they use the red markers?

At least they finally realized their errors and did the right thing, but they need to work on their diplomacy when dealing with people, well at least from my point of view.

Still a darn good price....
