He wrote ebay to have my account suspended so I couldn't leave him
negative feedback.

What did he write? Can you dispute THAT?

Yes, it shows up in the dispute listing as "w/optional mount". The
dispute process says I'm eligible for the refund but I have to pay for
shipping charges.
They're not going to hold a seller responsible for his ethics.
If the man had told me he screwed up, I'd have been ok with it. Instead
he lied.
He first told me it should have been in the same box as the antenna.
Then said the mount isn't being made and none available. When I asked
why he listed it with the mount if he couldn't supply it, his
conversation changed to, "I never said it was included. That's why it's
optional."
The auction listed it in large letters that it COMES with the optional
mount.

I paid $36 for it if memory serves.

I went with it based on recommendations off this group and the
electronics group.

Ebay forwarded his email to me. He asked them to suspend my account as I
said I would leave him negative feedback. At that point he wasn't
concerned with getting me the mount or refunding my money. He was only
worried about his "image".
Ebay stepped in and said no, and that I was eligible for a full refund
but would have to pray return shipping.
He didn't like that.
His story changed by the minute.

Metz Manta Marine VHF Antenna w/optional Bow Rail Mount

Seller did not ship with the bow rail mount and is now disputing his
auction. He states the mount is optional even though this is the wording
on his auction. He is willing to refund amount of antenna but not
shipping and I have to pay for shipping back to him.

Metz Manta-6 Marine Antenna with optional Bow Rail Mount



Key Features
Stainless Steel 17-7ph Whip
Stainless Steel Housing
Nickel plated support


So is the antenne. it must be "optional" even though it's in the
wording.

You should be entitled to the mount, or the full refund, I saw you
gave him the neg.

Actually, buying the Metz antenna is his first mistake.

I've went through two of them before I decided that purchasing a
Shakespeare was more cost effective than replacing Metz antennas every
three months. And, as it happens, I haven't replaced the Shakespeare
in the three years it's been on the boat.

Metz are crap antennas - always have been always will be. Their
attraction is that they are cheap and indeed, they are cheap.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it. :)

Tom, I would say that you ought to know. Thanks! Now knowing that
info, what I would do is send the antenne back get whats left of your
refund, and call it a wash and chalk up to experience. either that or
keep it, make you're own mount and be hacked off.
