SteveJeff with all due respect, what you have been saying makes little to no sense. (To me at least) How do you know that he is the only person that thought it was worth what he paid for it? Just because he was the only bidder does not make that a reality. Maybe for that day it does, it is very possible that other people feel it was worth what it sold for only they were not online or saw the auction, or for 100 other reasons. I agree with you that he could have replied to your offer but he is not obligated to. Also, and in closing, just because he put it up on ebay does not mean he wants to sell it, he may be seeing how many offers he would get. I can think of more reasons as to why people put things up on ebay w/o wanting to sell, (unless it is at there price) To say you wanted to help him get out from under a bad buy is a stretch IMO. (Even though I believe that was your intent.
