Retards on ebay

Why are there so many?!
I'm currently bidding on a snap-off steering wheel boss, that when I first bid was only on £40 with free p&p. I was then winning it at £41.
The exact same boss is plentiful on ebay (comes up under the same search) and they have buy it now prices of £55.99, again with free p&p. So I obviously wasn't going to bid more than that for this one, so I thought I'll just leave it to fate and put my maximum bid at £55.99.
So I check the auction this morning knowing it finishes soon... And it's on £60.78!
Frikin idiots. I hope it flashes up in their face when they win that they could buy a "similar item" (exact same!) for less money!

Haha
That's why you always do a bit of looking around first
Oh well, their loss.

Unbelievable isn't it! I've had the exact same thing happen a couple of times now - I don't understand some people.
On the other hand I've had one of these stupid buyers on the receiving end as a seller. It went for more than you could have bought in another auction for 'buy it now'. Of course I wasn't complaining then!

yep me too, on a set of alloys for the polo, listed at £20 with newish tyres wow. in the listing it read please dont message me for a buy now price or i will send you a silly offer like £70, but if you think they are worth £70 then by all means do so. the auction ended on £112
dickheads

I sold a Nintendo Wii and a Nintendo DS last year, both in great condition with manuals, boxes etc...
And they both sold for more than what they go for in the shops! Obviously I was happy because I got more than what I paid for them in the first place! The Wii sold for £34 more than R.R.P!
Some people on this planet really are thick
