Greg is correct, I am slightly late paying for a bike I won from him last week on ebay. We concluded negotiations for it the middle of last week. I have been extremely busy and did not make time to pay him. However, as of this morning, he has been paid.

I am sometimes a little late paying for stuff, not through malice, but through mild disorganization. But I'm good for my word and always pay up, as my feedback on ebay will indicate.

I am surprised, and sorry, that Greg felt it necessary to vent his pique on a public forum rather than e-mail me privately first...but it's a free country, after all. I felt the need to defend myself, and to note that if anyone here I deal with has a beef with me, I'd prefer they let me know about it privately first, before they go public with it.

Sorry for the somewhat off-topic post. I won't mention it again.
