I have emailed the last "buyer" (the $1,000 one)to se what his thoughts are.
I am still waiting for a responce from eBay. I chatted with someone this evening about it, they said I should have a reply soon. It's been 3 days now, the auto reply said I would have an answer in 24 to 48 hours.....
I have yet to call the "seller" again.
With luck I think it should work out, I only worry about the confrontation in the end. I don't think he will be happy. Perhaps I can recrute my 6'6" 300+ lb friend to go with me.
