[evil knievel]

Blimey steve you've thought that through

Ebay's an Auction site ............ you bid what you want to pay, if someone wants to bid more they buy it ?

 

If they knew what they wanted for it surely they would list as a buy now or a classified ad ?

 

 

I do the same though

What bugs me is people bidding on stuff with 8 days of the auction left. All that does is push the price up . I always wait to the last minutes to bid.

.........Another niggle with ebay when sellers start with 99p but the item is worth say 6 to 7 grand why not start at 5 grand its obviously not selling for say 1500 quid

Listing fees are cheaper for lower starts I think

Or in some cases free

 

 

Although why someone selling a £5k item is so tight that they dont pay £14 for a classified item that last's a month is beyond me

[Skimmer]

I never knew that but most times a low start never gets anywhere near the true selling /wanted price .....Cheers

i asked someone if they had something off the car they were breaking and they replied back with.

 

"yep"

That gets me every time Darren. You've got something for sale and I want to buy it. Tell me how much you want and i'll have it off you - simple. fookin idiots!

[mk2 mike]

I had someone contact me about a sky box i'm selling, it clearly states post or collection, yet he backed out of the sale when i told him i wouldnt deliver it! flipping cheek

 

Even with all it's problems, i'm still addicted to it. Bought so many bits for the mk2 in the last 3 weeks i think i've got an addiction

Unless it's a classified ad with a fixed price then, being an auction site, I would assume it's the responsibility of the prospective buyer to place/offer a bid.

Well I'm cheesed off today as I bought a set of internal door rods off there.

 

Asked in advance: "are these the rods that link the internal door handle with the latch mechanism?"

 

Was told: "Yes"

 

Arrived yesterday and they in fact the ones that link the external door handle with the latch mechanism.

 

I get told: Send them back for a refund

 

Great I think, are you funding the return postage and are you going to refund the postage I paid for them in the first place given that they're not what you said they were?
