–Heard from eBay on my missing iPhone appeal. I’ve been instructed to file reports with the police and with the postal inspector. This is really obnoxious. It’s the second time an eBay seller has clobbered me by filing fast. I left scathing feedback, but it didn’t show, and now it’s all up to me to get a recovery. Seller says “I filed a claim; PO didn’t respond.” Case closed. Unbelievable.

–Did some polishing; not all that great. Need some coarser rouge (at least).
