san diego -- some consumers are discovering that when they bid on ebay, they're opening a portal to problems.
tina schimke and her husband, dwayne, began having trouble with ebay when they placed a bid on a bike from what looked to be a legitimate seller, san diego television station kgtv reported.
"he had quite an ad on the site -- it had lots of bikes. i admit, i didn't completely read the ad," tina schimke said.
when the schimkes e-mailed back with a question about the shipping cost, the seller allegedly blasted them with a nasty e-mail.
"as soon as he got my e-mail, he was pounding the keyboard and venting," tina schimke said.
the anger didn't stop there, she said.
the seller allegedly left her a message that said, "hey there, schmuck boy -- not answering the phone now?"
the alleged ebay bully was on a roll.
"i know exactly where you f---ing live. e-mail me again and see what happens to your little b---- a--," the accused bully said in the message.
"i was afraid this person was a maniac and was going to show up on our front door," tina schimke told the station.
the schimkes aren't alone. this ebay bully had struck before, the station said.
he allegedly called the burleson household 37 times.
