I'm a tad pi**ed off

[surfingturnip]

won an item on ebay recently from the company retrosport. Won it on the 20th of last month and paid for it at the end of the auction through paypal. I was quite chuffed with said item as I got it rather cheap compared to identical items on the bay (rs2000 headlamp bezels). The fact that they haven't arrived yet would normally just irritate me a bit, the thing thats really got me pissed off is that while browsing through their items, they have, since I paid for my items re listed the exact same item as I bought using the exact same pictures with the exact same description for the same starting price. I may be going on about nothing but the combination of a re listed item and no contact or delivery from the seller seems dodgy to me. Sorry to go on but this is starting to bug me now.

And breathe

They may just have an identical item and couldn't be arsed to write a new advert ;)

Post up the link so we can all have a look at it.

 

Also, did you look back at the feedback for the seller's other items?

[surfingturnip]

I did look at the feedback, only 4 negatives and 1 neutral in their time on ebay.

 

thats what I won

thats what they've re listed

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-ESCORT-MK2-R ... dZViewItem

 

 

 

and this would be their response to negative feedback;

I love the way people refer to buying an item off of ebay as "i won", dude, you havent won anything, you have "brought an item".

[Smudger105e]

He has bought an item, but he also won the auction for said item, so both descriptions are correct, shoooorly?

if its that company then bad luck iv heard many stories of them

 

not very professional

 

we could always bid up all his items and not buy them though/.///

[caprinerd]

ive just bought a pair of wheel cylinders off ebay they were on a buy now so i bought and with in an hour they were back on i contacted the seller and they replied that the item i bought was re advertised as they have a number of them in stock

[surfingturnip]

hooray! they turned up today. First class post sent yesterday (must have cost them a fortune ) Apparently the payment for my item got sent to the wrong email address somehow and they only noticed when I lodged a complaint with paypal against them.
