Ok...no, I don't read dutch...but...it is close in sound to german so I thought I'd give it a shot. *I think* she's basically telling you she has not yet received the item and is wondering when she can expect it.

whenever you need to translate something you should try this site:

http://babelfish.altavista.com/

which translated (when Dutch to English was selected):

"dear salesman, largely a week suffered I have paid the object and still nothing within have got. when I can expect it."

I'm starting to feel that someone's scamming on you... also when sending overseas, it can take longer. Maybe you want to write her back in dutch - write what you want in English and put it in the translator... such as...

"Thank you for contacting me with your concerns. As I'm sure you understand, this item is being shipped overseas, and shipping time can be lengthy. If you have not received the item in 2 weeks from today, I will file an insurance claim the the carrier. Thank you for your understanding and continued patience. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have additional concerns."

translated from English to Dutch in altavista babelfish:

"Dank u voor het contacteren van me met uw zorgen. Aangezien ik zeker ben begrijpt u, wordt dit punt overzee verscheept, en het verschepen de tijd kan lang zijn. Als u niet het punt in 2 weken van vandaag hebt ontvangen, zal ik een verzekeringseis de drager indienen. Dank u voor uw begrip en voortdurend geduld. Gelieve te aarzelen niet om me te contacteren indien u extra zorgen hebt"

google has a translator too. You can even type in what you want to say in english and have it translated to dutch. That would throw her for a loop if she is trying to scam. here's the link

Ha! Seems like they are trying to scam. That translator is a good idea, I will have to remember it.

I wouldn't mind sending overseas but twice people tried to scam me so I don't bother with it anymore even though it may bring in higher bids with honest people. Once I sold a Tommy Hilfiger sweater and this person was saying how customs was keeping it in their possession because they thought it was a fake (yeah right). Who would fake Tommy Hilfiger? It wasn't even a new item. I told them I sent it the item and I was no longer responsible for it and if they contacted me again, I would get in touch with ebay about the harrassing. That shut them up. I'm rather sure they thought I would just give their money back, hell no!

Detroit, I'm not that nice and polite!

I did respond to her (we did it through ebay's form). I asked her to write in English and that the item had been mailed but would obviously take a while since it was overseas. She does speak English because she sent me an email before.

This lady is really annoying me, first of all because the listing said I ship to US and Canada only. And now she's being a wacko because it's been a week. Geez!
