Or maybe it's Janine, Miles' soon-to-be ex-wife, who's taken up with a noxiously vain health-club proprietor. Or perhaps it's the imperious Francine Whiting, who owns everything in town-and seems to believe that "everything" includes Miles himself.

    I sent an offer to the seller for this item that was accepted. After asking about delivery my order was abruptly cancelled no explanation. Several messages went unanswered. Seller advised she was out of town last minute and would return in a week. I said I would wait and the seller said message in a week with my offer. I messaged and got one reply saying send your offer! The item was not relisted. The seller has now ghosted me. I'm requesting the seller be removed from ebay!
