fullscreenaging Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 (edited) It’s simple to get round that. Just ask a mate to put a bid on for the price you want. If they win then through eBay the seller can cancel the sale or vice verse. Just a loophole in eBay No one knows the winning bid is a mate.

Gerontious Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 No point. There will be a bidding war over this. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonio Posted June 16, 2021 Share Posted June 16, 2021 Yup. I've usually had good results from sticking something on ebay starting ridiculously low like this: gets people having a poke and then feeling some kind of commitment to winning. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem with this is that the seller (OP) will still need to pay eBay a percentage of the sale price fee if it's 'sold', something like 6% or something.

Because they dropped Paypal, its all done done by Ebay!! They reckon it works out cheaper, I've never noticed it!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, That's why if I have, with offers on some stuff, and then people offer half, they get up tight that I won't sell for nothing. The other month I had a set of Honda Deauville downpipes! Brand new, guy desperately wanted them but didn't want to pay what I wanted, 3 offers he made! Then they sold to someone else at asking price!! He had a right go because I sold them!!!
