strelly Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) Didn't they change the rules so that you have no choice?Its the first time ive been on ebay in a while... if thats true then ill give up on ebay. I can always give the person who actually bid realistically a second chance offer. Edited August 13, 2008 by strelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendrix Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 Was that bid considerably higher than all the others and out of the blue?Most likely a scam, unless someone entered the wrong price and didn't notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-baby158 Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 There from Germany so it will probly be a scammer, have they payed for it yet ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strelly Posted August 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) Was that bid considerably higher than all the others and out of the blue?Most likely a scam, unless someone entered the wrong price and didn't notice.Seemed that two people (0 feedback) bid it up high, and the loser then unregistered.According to ebay:Completing the SaleThe listing has ended and your item has sold. Good communication with your customers and prompt dispatch after the listing ends is crucial to your success as an eBay seller. (What if your item didn't sell? )Once your item has sold you need to: 1.Contact your buyer . 2.Receive payment . 3.Post the item . 4.Leave feedback (optional, but encouraged). 5.Pay seller eBay fees .There from Germany so it will probly be a scammer, have they payed for it yet ?No payment yet. Not expecting it. But if i get it then ill be pretty happy! Edited August 13, 2008 by strelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deonn h Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 (edited) Maybe they meant to type £45.40 ?Was already at 72.77 Edited August 13, 2008 by Deonn h Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revolver Posted August 13, 2008 Report Share Posted August 13, 2008 The fact that it says someone who's deleted their account biddd before at 444 makes it so obvious its a scam=/Relist it maybe, or do the second chance offer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
