I purchase a lot on ebay, i'll make offer or buy outright, I dont often actually bid.
Yes I can play hardball with offers, sometimes it works, sometimes not, its all fair and above board.
If an offer is accepted or I buy outright I pay there and then.
On this very rare occasion I listed something for sale.
I had some tyres I took off my old car from new, they had covered under 400 miles (closer to 300 TBH) and had been stored in my garage on and under tarpaulin since.
I made it an auction, but also added a "make offer" button.
I also clearly stated collection only.
Twice I have accepted an offer,(4 tyres for well below the price of one brand new) twice they changed their mind for whatever reason, one failing to tell me until the day before his payment deadline.
And why do people message me asking what I will sell for, or if I can courier ?
I thought it self explanatory, you make what you feel they are worth to you, and I will either negotiate, say no or accept, not rocket science is it ?
Or you put a bid on and hope for the best, there is no reserve.
Yet to discover my fees, but I better not be charged for the 2 failed sales !
