Am i just being anal or not?

Look i put my amp up on ebay, and in the auction it specifically calls out that bidders with no feedback or recent negative feedback should not bid because i will reject their bids. The reason is that i don't want to go thru the whole mess of non-payers and nigerian scams and the works. 3 times in the past day, a no feedback bidder has bid on my shyt. I asked that if someone where to be a new buyer and really want the amp to contact me first....which the 3 people did not....so i cancelled their bids. about 5 times in the past, i've been stiffed by bidders with no feedback and thats why i won't accept them. So, am i wrong for doing so or would you be weary as well?

I don't see a problem.

As a matter of fact, you may want to go back and put that in a bigger font, in red, and bold it.

Sometimes I hate using Ebay for the simple fact that some people that bid on my items are completely retarded.

I got Nigerian scammed a few years back. Yes, I was stupid... I may possibly be stupid even to this day, but not enough to get Nigerianed.

You're doing the right thing.

And Im saying that as a person with a zero ebay history.

If I wanted to buy I wouldnt have any problem contacting you first, as that also provides me (as a first time ebay buyer) with some assurance Im not being scammed either.

I think you are being straight as an arrow. If they really were serious, they would have read the entire auctrion and contacted you.
