Ebay and second chance offers........

[stickthis]

I find these to be quite dodgey sometimes.

I just bidded on this one. Someone outbidded me.

less than an hour after it ended. The seller sends me a second chance offer saying the winner brought it by mistake.

Now click on the bid history. Then click on the winner. Yes the name is hidden. Click on his scrambled name anyhow.

You will see this "winner" has only ever bidded on one persons items. I asked the seller if this "winner" has ever brought from him before. He said NO. The bids this bloke has made on this seller and won are in green. So he has won 5 of his items. bidded on 4 of them in the last hour or so.

No point trying to fool an eBay veteran.

hmmmmmmmmmm


Good lesson here for the people not so into eBay. Be aware of second chance offers.

An ended item. The same "winner" of the holden item is also bidding on a ford part from the same seller. For good $$ too.

I wasnt going to reprot this to ebay. But think I will now.

Your offer price is now a whole lot lower than original I would suggest, teach them a lesson.

Here is the winner of the item I bidded on. Looks like he buys (bids and doesnt pay) from this seller a fair bit.

The seller claims to never have sold to this bloke. Now if someone had brought that much from you before I think your would remember!

Fish tanks and bunk beds. I think you would rremember him picking them up wouldnt you??

And same bidder won this item from the same seller.

And here's one of the guys items with a bunch of bids pushing up the price from one user, who coincidentally has bid on 15 items in the last 30 days....... all from joker_ss

notice that both the feedback and also the feedback left he tends to use a+++ a fair bit in both. Sugesting the same bloke is the buyer and seller

hmmm, i have almost had it with ebay at the moment. People like this make it 10x worse for the honest user. I have had quite a few items go for far less than their actual value, maybe i should have pushed up the price with some dodgy bids... I WOULD report him stick.

[stickthis]

Sure have Mook.

eBay is a big place for me with my business. I dont need wanker like this stuffing it for others.

This is one reason why I list everything as a buy it now. That was you know your paying the exact price you should be.
