They might look to back out of this deal now. I e-mailed the seller (didn't reply to Ellen8411) and asked when I could pick it up, but haven't heard back. It is early, but I'm thinking they have serious seller's remorse and are concerned about their having e-mailed me as Ellen8411 (if they realize). Maybe I should have e-mailed Ellen8411 -- she seems to respond quicker  '> I'll keep you guys updated.
Thanks for the advice Eric. The consensus seems to be that this is a good deal and I'm willing to go through with it for the $375. We'll see if they feel the same.

Take a printout of ellen's e-mail with you, along with a copy of the bid history and tell him you think you should only be paying $350. He will be embarassed but will probably accept and still leave a + feedback

Not to belabor the point, but I don't care about paying $375 versus $350, but more that I don't like that this person was engaging in this behavior. I know there are some who compare this to setting a "reserve price" but I just don't see it. Regardless, I'm happy to get the machine and I'm sure I'll have a great time restoring it. Now on to machine #4 '>

Thanks Collecture. I need to go pick up machine and make sure there are no problems, but hopefully I can make the auction end time and my picking up the V110 match up.

I finally went and picked the machine up today and am very happy with it. A lot of surface rust, but I think it will clean up quite nicely. As for the seller, he was apparently removed from EBAY without me ever raising a complaint. Someone else must have turned him in for the same type of activity is my guess. He seemed like a nice enough guy and it sounded like he might have lost his job recently. He certainly wasn't destitute (big house with two car garage, Seadoo, 5 vehicles) but if he needs an extra $50-$75 that badly he can have it. All and all, I'm very happy with my Vendo 110 for $375. Now time to pour money into restoring it.
