    just sold my phone!

    my free upgrade came in, a nokia 6230, i chucked it on ebay and make £200 that covers my line rental and free mins for almost the whole year, seemed like good business to me, as my nokia 7210 pretty good just lacks the mp3 player and camera, which i can live without

    Hmm, I would prefer the 6230 over the 7210 to be honest. Its a cracking phone. Still if you are happy ...

    Make sure you file a non paying bidder request-thingy. You can claim your ebay fees back then...

    i just got this after i gave her an ear bashing

    "Yet again my sincere apologies for the inconvenience caused, unfortunately it could not be helped. For your information, the phone was meant to be a present for my mothers birthday. yesterday she found out she has breast cancer and its terminal therefore i have more important matters to see too i can only apologise."

    What can say to that!

    so it's relisted now

    What can you say? I'd say its Bull.

    Report to ebay, Nail em with bad feedback.

    Personally, I refuse to accept bids from anyone with <5 positive feedback.

    I reckon is bull also! But I can't take that risk and hassle them, it's just not worth it. The buyer was a lady and works for the local government judging by her email address, I just don't wanna push it incase I’m wrong, but yeah it sounds like bull

    My hands are bound

    your well within your rights to report them to ebay and leave narsty feedback - doesnt matter about the circumstances or who it is. A contact is a contract, no matter who its between

    MY LETTER TO HER - BLAGGED IT A BIT WITH THE CREDIT STUFF

    Jayne

    I just noticed in your feedback that that you have just purchased a nokia 6230! How strange! You should be ashamed of yourself making up lies about your mother like that! What kind of sicko are you? I will be passing on all the emails and filing a full report to ebay and the credit scoring agency that I use. I’m disgusted! To say all that and then buy one anyway! For £30 more as well! It cost me £5 to list and sell that phone to you.

    You are without doubt sub human scum and you really should be ashamed of yourself making up such a lie like that… sick man just sick!

    Maybe a little harsh.... nah.

    She doesn't sound too bright. How many places all over ebay deos it tell you to NEVER bid on two identical items in case you win both. But to then buy the more expensive one?

    I wouldn't worry too much, she'll probably die in a hair-curler related incident before too long.
    They told me I was gullible ... and I believed them.

    You should at least get your listing fee refunded by ebay?
