He couldn't even answer the ones where you gave instructions about how to do it re: the action etc. How hard can it be? Sounds a bit shady to not let you inspect it but also to suggest that you might wish to pick it up to save them delivery probs... and what's with this "we just came by it"-huh??? grr, as an ebayer myself (I buy/sell vintage(+ vintage style) clothes there sometimes and reckon you should make every effort to describe/provide pics and answerany questions!!
