Bidder from Nigeria...

emmedi

I'm so piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii**ed off!!!!!!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad:

The winner of my item wanted me to send it to Nigeria.... :rolleyes::rolleyes:

I have offered a second chance offer to the other bidders.

Can someone tell me how can i report the bidder to ebay and also will I have to pay the fees only if another bidder offer the second chance offer??

Thank you, I'm sure there are answers in the forum already, but I'm fuming at the moment!!!!!!:mad::mad::mad:

To UK only.
Bidder has a German address, and sent me an email to post it to Nigeria. Even if it was genuine, I've stated it was UK delivery only.

Tell them to take a long running jump into a pool of bleach.
Leave them negative and report them.

Its about time ebay made it easier on themselves and new sellers buy giving out tips and things to watch out for when selling certain items.

They could make it so when you add an item you get little warning popups waring you of potential problems with say selling a mobile and how best to protect yourself.

...Or you have to have good feedback and sold at least 20 items before you can bid on stuff. Or you can't bid on stuff over a certain amount unless you have decent feedback.

Ebay can't single out countries or they would be accused of c untryism:rolleyes:

But they do tell you not to sell your phone abroad.

I recently sold an old phone (got upgrade) and put in my description

SCAMMERS DON'T BOTHER in red caps.

Not a soul from Africa bothered. The last phone I sold was a bit different, I didn't know then, but just ignored them and relisted.

Why should you be forced to sell 20 items before you can bid? what if people don't have 20 items to sell or don't want to sell because of the problems of being ripped of or scammed?

Cant bid on items over a certain amount? That's a bit of a silly idea as its an auction site and so prices go up as people bid.

You can block bidders to a point on feedback but what hope has anyone got when there's people out there ready to give negative feedback or marks for things as silly as not putting the postage price on items they post.
