adamtrials Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 50 quid is too much,will pay fee for posting up the item, sounds fare enough.no kissing matt + a bit to stop him moaning...Otherwise he is unlikely to accept just the fees.

Ducko Posted June 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 + a bit to stop him moaning...Otherwise he is unlikely to accept just the fees.maybe so.fee's would be acceptable, i still have my story of my account being 'hacked' that should work if so he will not have to pay to re list anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisboats Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 (edited) I can pretty much guarantee this won't go to court. At the end of the day its nothing compared to when my sister logged onto my mums ebay account (automatically stored passwords, gutted mum) she went round bidding on dvd's cd's and everything she could think of that she wanted... it was over 30 auctions she won within one afternoon. We found out later that her method for consistant wins was to put a bid of £100000 on and she would win everytime. Obviously my mum didn't want to pay nearly £3,400 on ebay auction winnings so she just ignored everything to do with ebay and forgot about it. We looked a while later and she had received negative feedback from everyone my sister bidded on, but my mum still had full use of the ebay account and could still buy things off it.Be prepared to receive negative feedback, but don't bother offering a bribe, ebay will pay his relisting fees so theres no need for you to pay him anything... especially if you want the account being hacked excuse to be remotely beleivable by ebay. If they find out you give him a bribe you'll most likley get banned from using ebay.You've told him what *supposedly* happened now forget about it and go out riding.

Mark W Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Plus, if you can't afford whatever he was selling, it's pretty likely you couldn't afford to pay the court fees 'n' compensation or whatever miracle he's expecting to happen... but yeah, just gotta think before throwing down on eBay in future I guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Hardman Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Not really. People that bid and then don't pay are the thorn in eBay's bollocks.He can't take you court."Oh sir judge, this man bid on an item and didn't pay"- "Give a shit, i've got murderers to convict"I've not heard of one case of someone being taken to court.Also, they will take one look at the IP log and account activity and trends, and notice straight away you are bull shitting. They'll probably still ban the account, either way, and possibly you for ever. E-mail, IP, name, paypal, etc etc, you get the idea.I don't even use eBay, but thats from past knowledge.IP is your internet address. Its unique to you, and doesn't change that often, sometimes never.They don't do a very good job of convicting murderers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanie-b Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 Bid retraction form .One strike. You won't be going to court dude . Can I just add , it costs a minimum of 35 pence to list an item . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Extreme_biker0 Posted June 30, 2006 Report Share Posted June 30, 2006 So, you failed to get the loan! Probably for the best seeing as you can't manage your finances Retard!He can take you to court, but will have to pay a lawyer up front, and i'm guessing he could sue you for everything you have and have way less than the court+lawyer fees. Like onzaboymark said, if he has any sense he wont, but technically could.You're safe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly minimum, then you pay more for a background, a title in bold, pictures... putting a reserve of £50 costs something silly like £7.

deagledaddy Posted July 2, 2006 Report Share Posted July 2, 2006 QUOTE(deanie-b @ Jun 30 2006, 09:15 PM) ← Bid retraction form .Can I just add , it costs a minimum of 35 pence to list an item . 15p is what i paid for most of my most recent auctions. Don't know where you got 35p from? can be done for even less on certain days or if you use buy it now auctions. Kris, don't think its anything like £7 for a reserve of £50......get your facts right lads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
