I bought an early Bentley manual from him on eBay recently. Before 
bidding I noticed that he had just changed his eBay identity and had 
zero feedback but had just posted about 50 items -- red flags that to 
me indicated that he's a volume seller but probably had lots of bad 
feedback or complaints in the past (which might explain why he got so 
upset about your feedback) -- but I bid anyway and the item was as 
advertised and the transaction was smooth. Sorry to hear about your 
trouble with him. Sounds like he hasn't learned from past mistakes.
