I wouldn't bother reporting it, but you would be paying yourself less than minimum wage to meet up (and that's assuming that everything is on the up and up.)

Not to mention he agreed to the shipping costs when he won the auction. Reporting it just sets you up for more headaches. The less involved you get as a seller, the better IMO.

It is kinda weird that the winner didn't contact you himself, but I have to say... I once won a Jason Jennings pitching rubber thing, it was huge and the shipping was $15 but the seller was in Colorado Springs. We met at the LCS and did the exchange, it was kind of cool. Of course, I've also won several baseball cards from people locally and just paid the shipping because meeting up was a lot of work to save $3. But for $15 it was totally worth it!

Who knows....maybe you guys hit it off, have a few drinks, spend the night together....start dating, adopt a few cats that you name Logan and Ralph, move in together, buy a Prius, get matching sweaters and celebrate three years later by getting married when that type of thing is legalized in NY/NJ.

And all of this is made possible by a simple ebay transaction. Isn't life grand?

Tell him you live in the Marcy projects and see if he will still want to meet you.
