Cheese,

He offered to PayPal me the listing fee (about $34.00) but not the final value fee of $100.00. I e-mailed him and told him I was going to have to do a non-paying bidder report in order to get credited for the $100.00.

truckemup,

The guy with the 4-wheeler sorta disappeared. I left him a message earlier today and he doesn't seem to be getting back to me.

who in their right mind would travel from Tenn. to NY and back(hi gas prices) to trade a 4 wlr for a dirt bike when they can do it closer to home??.

Yup. Which leads me to believe that maybe he was in cahoots with the high bidder...trying to get me to end the auction early or cancel his bid.
