Let me add to the people that have had "issues" with Richard Bucci. To date, these are his "known" ebay IDs

I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND blocking these ID's from bidding on your auctions if you sell on ebay.
Here is MY story. For the first time in over 3 years, I've listed some parts on ebay.
h1kawasaki (rick bucci) hit the "buy it now" on this seat pan
http://www.ebay.com/itm/311771766986?ssPageName=STRK:MESOX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1559.l2649
I had it in the mail within a couple of days. Took a while to get to the East Coast (Milford, Connecticut, to be exact), but well within the time frame stated on the auction, and I provided a tracking number, so it was easy to keep tabs on.
The USPS attempted delivery on Jan 21st, but nobody was there to collect so they left a note and brought it back to the post office.
Here is where it gets "weird".
the guy REFUSES to go pick the package up?, and then opens a Claim with ebay stating "I did not get it". Ebay, therefore freezes the funds in my Paypal account.
We go back and forth via messages (through ebay, thankfully, as the guy contradicted his "story" repeatedly, which plays into the final result), where he states.....and I quote
You shipped it It is your obligation. Not mine
All the guy had to do was drive 3 miles to his local Post Office and collect it?
I don't know what kind of scam this guy was trying to pull, but in the end he was caught in a LIE. bucci "claimed" that his post office didn't have the package.....Which I found a bit odd, as I had already called his local post office the day before, spoke with the post master, who physically put his hands on the box I sent and said "we are waiting for Mr Bucci to claim it").
Last night, I get three more weird messages from him, and instead of replying to him directly, called ebay customer service once again.. This time explaining that I think there is some sort of "Fraud" going on.
The rep read through all of our messages, saw that attempt for delivery had been made, and agreed that "it appears that this guy is up to something", and closed the case in my favor.
In closing, An hour or so ago, I figured I would click the tracking number to see if my gut was correct....and WHAT A SHOCKER!!!! The seat pan was picked up this morning.
