ilovegrannys Posted September 20, 2008 Report Posted September 20, 2008 60 WATCHERS & 4 BIDDERS....£660. There is no way on earth i am letting it go for that. The final bidder had feedback of 1! Very dodgy stuff. Everyone wants some thing for nothing. Some scumbay wasted my time on Thursday, uming & aring over the said price of £850 cash!!! Then drove all the way back to Nottingham... waste my EFING time!!! I am going to keep it now until someone actually wants it off me!!!
lotusless Posted September 20, 2008 Report Posted September 20, 2008 there are a lot of chancers about at the mo coz of the "credit crunch" they think everyone is desperate to sell, if you are in a possition to keep the granny then try + do that till things pick up again. fook knows when that will be though
Mrs O/H/C Posted September 20, 2008 Report Posted September 20, 2008 Hi Chris, i was watching your granny as i would love to own it .. GUTTED that it only went for £660 If i was you i would put a reserve on it if you decide to put it back on the bay
bortaf Posted September 20, 2008 Report Posted September 20, 2008 Unfortunatly that's allways been the storey with the granny They cost so much to run but concidering what you get for the money they are a top old ford with many modern touches Keep at it somone will want it it
mk2_escort_chick Posted September 20, 2008 Report Posted September 20, 2008 Now surely if the auction ended at that price and the e-bayer comes over with the money you have to do the deed? I thought it was a binding contract as such. I know it must be a pooper that it only reached that amount, but you should of really put a reserve on it.
Mr.Sumo Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 i was watching thta as well....£660 is cheap . If the Nana had sold i"d have paid a grand .......but she didn"t , so i can"t

Oh i see so it did sell and you backed out of the deal sorry that makes you the ebay scumbag for not sticking to the rules i bet the winning bidder is saying the exact same thing on his/hers home forum sorry not aimed at you Mk2 quoted your answer by mistake
Cookie Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 How on earth can you call Ebay bidders scumbags when the car ended at what it ended on and you won't sell at that price? ????????????? It really annoys me when people want to play the Ebay game but not by the rules........... If you want a certain amount put a reserve on it or start at minimum you will take, but then be prepared to not see any bids, unfortunatly thats the way the cookie crumbles, you pays your money and takes your chances.
richie_stix Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 my comiserations for your loss or low priced sale but the point of ebay is an auction and thats the way the cookie crumbled! if you got it for 660, would you consider yourself an ebay scummer.. no just lucky? again, my comiserations and i don't wana be rude but it's a two sided street!
FlashCadillac Posted September 21, 2008 Report Posted September 21, 2008 Thats why ebay has starting prices and Reserves.... how many more ways do you want them to give you of being able to get what you want for it at the moment mate nobody wants to spend, iv just sold a 2002 volovo estate and had to knock £600 off the price to shift it... makes me sick as i know its worth more but people just arnt spending.... im not looking forward to putting the escort up for sale tomorrow eve
