Hi Yes there are one or two things missing here, the main one being as I told Simon the seller had a family bereavement and a difficult family time, and I did still try to contact him a few more times after his last contact when all was still go on the machine, but heard nothing at all since.
Simon asked me to pursue him through ebay and force a sale( as this was a passed on agreed etc sale with the chap) and this week said if I didn`t give him the chaps ebay details he would post about it on here etc. I appreciate you had sold a machine in lieu of this one, but I didn`t feel comfortable doing that at all considering.
I`m sorry Simon but it was just a projector and for whatever reason the gentleman has stopped communication I simply don`t want to hassle the poor chap.
I`m sorry you sold a machine to fund this one Simon, but it was a situation I could do nothing about, and I had refunded your monies very early on after a few non replies from the chap a few weeks ago.
I`ve replied to all your emails until this week as my server has stopped my service and the only one I can access at the moment is charging me up to 10p a minute dial up. I rang them up but got India !!! you can imagine how helpful that was.
Anyway I`ve logged in on a family machine now to reply here.
I`m sorry once again the sale didn`t happen Simon but I just did not want to pursue this poor fellow, I`m sure he has his reasons for letting this go and not getting back after a point and hope he`s OK as he seemed like a really nice chap.
I hope you find another machine, I had been thinking of offering you my nice Sankyo 501 for free if you paid just the postage DHL so you had a machine as a sorry.
I did try Simon, but there was obviously an issue at his end I hope wasn`t too bad.
I had explained everything truthfully and as was, in our private emails and I think it would have been best to keep it there really.
Good luck finding another and I`ll keep my eye out as well and sorry again.
Best wishes Mark.

Thank you Mark. The matter is closed. But I do appreciate your comments.
But the lesson we could all learn from this....next time we don't get the price we expect from an item we sell on Ebay...cite a family issue then stop replying to the purchasers emails? I'll be doing that next time, but I don't think I'll find a buyer as understanding or as kind as you, Mark!
I'll be using this..."I fell from a climbing frame in 1982, badly injuring my tonsils, followed by my great uncle (aged 109) passing away in 1986. Then, my 25 year old Austin Metro needed a new clutch (unexpectedly, after 509,016 miles!) last year, hence the reason I couldn't post out that GS1200. I'm sure everyone will understand?"
