I just don't understand some people

A while back I had this IPY sheet from Finland on auction, you know where.
After some serious action from 5 or 6 bidders, this sheet realized, yet again, a higher selling price on auction then what I am selling it at my store.
3 days ago I received an email from one of the bidders asking me for a "second chance". I responded that I could not do it because I would loose too much at his final bid.
He got back to me offering me $3.50 for the sheet. at the beginning of this blog I mentioned that my intentions were to be transparent in my opinions and dealings. and this not only on this blog but in all my dealings.
So, I'm selling this sheet at $3.95, I explain to this customer that if he orders from the store and uses his coupon code for an instant 15% discount he would be paying $3.36 for the sheet instead of the $3.50 he is offering. Moreover I offered him to combine his winning lots with his purchase at the store.
Guess what? I haven't heard from him in 2 days. Can somebody explain to me the logic of some buyers?

  1. Sir! If i don't make mistake, Your family name suggest me, that Your come from Yugoslavia, and there people know to say "who don't hurry - arrive farther".

    Probably person "think" few day, probably some other reason to wait for some time - because two day, is not something terrible.

    I have in my experience, where people come back with answer after six-seven months!!!!!
