... I have no dealings with Mr. Bondi, Chuck:

Last September he won on one of my auctions on Jackpot, $41.99 for a set of Hot August Nights chips. Two weeks went by and I hadn't heard anything from him. I e-mailed him, and he finally responded, saying he had no money and asking if I could wait until his next payday.

I agreed. Payday came, and he said he was still broke. He offered to pay me in $5 Vegas LEs, which I declined (I don't collect them, and I wasn't going to Vegas for several months). Meanwhile, he was bidding on several other auctions, including one for $90, more than twice what he owed me.

Either he wasn't broke or he had no intention of honoring those other bids if he won. I left him a negative feedback on Jackpot, which was his sixth negative in his 12 most recent auctions at the time.

I've now blocked him in my auctions on eBay and Jackpot and refuse to deal with him, whether he's in the club or not.

I don't pick on him, Chuck. I just don't acknowledge that he exists.
