Ebay.....
 

Well I won something on t'Ebay yesterday and thought that I'd been a bit screwed over and the person had bid up the price to my maximum (bidder ID's kept private) so never paid for it straight away.

Just remembered and the guy is now no longer a registered user. I was thinking about reporting it to Ebay. Do you think I still should? How do you do it?

Should I still go through with it or not?

i had simalar thing bid on a lazer my max bid was one 150 it went to about 170 then hey presto i won it wot a suprise contacted seller told i didnt want it as i had bought a new one after i was outbid he took the right hump within ten minutes of me pulling my bid all the bids dissapeered (bump bidders) be careful dude report em cus its nobs like that who get ebay a bad name report him:(

there's been a lot of shield bidding lately on ebay, ive had 3 second chance offers in the last 3 weeks

Think I'll leave it well alone to be honest. Wouldn't mind but the guy looked like a shop in the US and had been registered since 2004 with over a 1000 +ve feedback!

How do I send a complaint to Ebay, can't find where to do it. :(

bring up his profile there should be an option in there

Look for him on this forum or this site

i use ebay all the time its ace
 

just rememebr when bidding if for eg something was at £1.99 current bid it doesnt mean thats all that guy has bid you can leave higher max bidds like £30 or what ever and every time you bid a higher max bidd will auto bid higher than you till you reach there max limit bid it does look like ur being ripped of but not so it just means that that current bidder has left a higher max bid hope that helps

I think the point being made, is you end up bidding against a non-existent bidder to push the price of the item up, so instead of paying say £20, you bid against someone and end up paying £30 because the other bidder won at £31 and then withdrawn, leaving you at £30 and not £20.

Wow, cheers for that bigred, I do know how Ebay works! :mad:

I put my bid in and was highest bidder, then was strangly bid right up to exactly my limit, which I thought odd. The fact that the bidder ID's were being kept secret was also strange.

Ever tried looking on Ebay for a book about grammer? :D :D

G

who gives a s+++ about the grammer that's very petty of you
you understood it didnt you why ask for advice if u didnt want it :p

I just don't feel that people should type in forums in "text speak". It's causing the younger generation to think its normal.

Sorry to offend.

EDIT: Yes I did read it, but it was hard work. Don't you think its much easier to read something with commers, full stops and correctly spelt words? Interested in your opinion.

now now fellas, this forum is a place of fun and laughter, not like some of the ongoings you get in other forums.

lets loweer the tone, and keep the bad lanuage to the minimum :D

I've bought quite a few things off ebay and never has a problem (apart from a Citroen ZX, good pikie tow car but the wife said it was crap).
My rules are,
Don't bid alot, if you don't get it then ther'll be more.
Always look for sellers with good feedback.
Read descriptions carefully looking for stuff that's 'bulled' up.

I dislike sellers who don't give feedback untill the buyer has has done so. As a seller I always give feedback as soon as the buyer has paid.
As a buyer as soon as I have paid my part of the deal is done and I expect feedback at that point.

Just returned from work to find Jimmy telling people I bite... hmm... I scratch too!! *attacks with killer nail*

Oh and by the way boys... it's grammar and comma Jeez... GET IT RIGHT! *ahem*
