I listed a sealed 30th Gold C3P0 and some person kept emailing and asking how he can find one in a sealed boxed set. Needless to say, he never placed a Buy It Now offer after I asked if he was interested. Then I finally received a decent offer that I accepted. The UK buyer never paid after asking me twice if shipping will require a signature.

I won an open UCS Vader Tie Defender and the seller doesn't want to claim my payment via PayPal. Although feedback was low, his email is legit. I just sent him one.

My son wanted a Batman 1 Batmobile so I won one, Auction stated complete except for the road block. 16 minor elements ended up missing from both vehicles and seller shipped the set in the original lego box (wasn't listed in the auction) w/ supermarket brown paper around it. Never the less, the box was a pleasant surprise.

Feel free to also post any eBay feedback horror stories.

Maybe they didn't make an offer so they can get the product and open a snad case, maybe?!

Sounds about right :)

I must admit I have done this a few times.  1) I hate waiting up to 2 days for the buyer to maybe accept maybe not, especially if it is already a very good price and worried someone might give a better offer of buy it now

2) Sometimes it is because the ebay bucks deal is in play and worried the buyer will take too long to accept and I won't get the 10% back

3) Makes me feel like a real man

#3 made me lol and wake up the wife....got kicked to the couch. Thanks a lot!

What kind of electronics? My issues with snad cases are 99 percent electronics based. Stereo equipment usually.

NIB MOTO360

Heh, my bad.  I'm in the same boat as you if you feel any better but in my case it is eating taco bell for dinner and the unpleasant odors associated with that has me banned.

Can someone please enlighten me as to why someone would buy one of my items with a best offer option at full asking price without even making an offer??

I prefer the ones that offer more than the BIN price. I've had that happen twice in the last six months.

I clearly state that i ship international through ebay and i've had people offer more to ship directly to them, and I turn them down everytime, not worth all the scamming and hassles that ebay handles when you ship through ebay

Some eBay buyers have the cerebrum of an amoeba as I used to get a high proportion of BIN buyers who never made an offer even though they had the chance to.  In some cases, my auto-accept was 25% lower or more.  A foolish single-celled organism and their money are soon parted.  One woman even paid twice for something (cheque & PayPal) as payment was pending for a while and she couldn't wait.  I contacted her and no reply so I was paid

Might not necessarily be scamming, more likely just trying to avoid the exorbitant costs of the GSP rip-off, Canada Customs rarely charges anything so why would anyone want to pay all that cash up front?

Canada is a country i'll ship to without GSP, i'm talking south east Asian countries mostly

I fully support the GSP - but I would never use it

True, It's a great program indeed if you are on that side, if it worked from Canada outwards I'd definitely use it myself as well. but it's a skunk if you really want to import things from the US.  here one has to use third party software just to filter out search results that include GSP listings.

Oh F... I pasted the link from a very small screenshot. Perhaps this video belongs with the video exciter posted the other day about rebel bases.

Does anyone now why I no longer have the option to list an item GTC? I have 100% positive feedback so I don't know what's going on. Some kind of holiday restriction maybe?

Now that you're selling, post some stuff you've sold!

Ebay is offering free auction or BIN listings, up to 500 listings, 10 days or less, from yesterday until Nov 26.

 

More in line with the topic - I recently had someone offer me $24 for an lot of non-LEGO items I have listed for $200, which is already a discounted price.  I like to use those types of offers as a reminder to set my auto-decline settings.

Now that you're selling, post some stuff you've sold!
