Advice on unsold item
Still new to ebay and advice please I had quite an expensive item in a listing which was unsold. Someone has emailed me to ask if I would accept a lower offer after auction ended.

Just waiting for the excuses to start....
I won an item on Friday from a seller with about 50 feedback, generally positive with the odd quibble about dispatch time. This would normally go for £6-7, I got it for £2.30 with free delivery, meant to be sent first class recorded. Now am I being too cynical, as I'm sitting here waiting for the "oops it's broken, can we…

Question regarding Amazon Delivery Address
Sorry for putting it here, but I need to ask about ordering from Amazon to a different address. My Mom wants to order a TV and the one we've found for her is cheaper on Amazon. She doesn't have the internet herself, so therefore doesn't have an Amazon account. Would I be able to order under my account and have it sent to…
