    ebay, oh what fun :]

    some people, i listed my phone on ebay, then removed it as ive opted to keep it.

    whilst it was on ebay, i pimped a few people with

    Code:
    Ive noticed your recent interest in a Nokia 6230, should you still wish to purchase one, i ask that you take a look at my auction.
    
    Its buy it now at a similar price to your bid!
    
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=myitem#

    this one guy replied saying - sorry but i only buy brand new.

    i sent a message back saying, no problem ive withdrawn the auction now anyway.

    then he sends one back saying "Withdrawn, but i pay to your PayPal already"

    so now, the fun begins

    Know how you feel mate! I had a 1 port Router for sale and a buyer with a healthy 300+ FB was the highest bidder with 5 mins to go.....But then this 'A___hole' with a lowly 1 FB comes in and wins! Now 5 days go by and i email him and get this in return: I am sorry i nolonger want the item as i have purchased one elsewhere! ARGHH!! "IF ONLY HE LIVED AROUND THE CORNER'' Does'nt it make you sick! Now the original bidder does not want it as he too has bid on another! Not his fault of course!

    Ps The A____HOLES 1 + FB said: quote" buyer refused to pay" How strange!

    i've not bid for anything on ebay in ooooh must be at least 3 or 4 years. The last thing was either a Quad Head Matrox G200 PCI or some old NES games. Usually buy and memory cards and phone accessories on eBay, but always with Buy now from stores.

    Scum bag

    Those stupid kids need to be shown they are entering into a contract to buy. I would like to see what they would say at a real auction... "ooh sorry iv changed my mind" "Well tough s*** son! I have had loads of these jokers myself mate, gutting

    Im not a fan of bidding for an item myself really. Its a sellers market tbh.

    Are you kidding? As an occasional seller myself, it pains me to see that so many bidders are actually able to use the maximum bid system. It minimises the money the seller can make. I think it is a buyers market myself.
