    What can I say, it was a dumb thing to do and I had a lucky escape!!!

    In my defence I arrived home from the pub just after 2 o'clock on Saturday morning saw the Ipod on ebay and read as much of the details as my brain could cope with at the time!! Fortunately I was too drunk to remember my paypal login details and received a warning from orange6969 in time to stop me paying when I sobered up!

    Thanks again orange6969. I’ve learned my lesson!!

    I am glad Jimi has found MSE so now he will be able to save money (as long as he stays off ebay when he has been drinking!)

    I email a lot of winning bidders about this

    Make sure you use a 'spare' account to do this. If ebay find out they will make you NARU.

    We have established MSE needs its own auction house :P
    No reliance should be placed on the above.

    Yeah I realised there was a place made for Ebay posts after I had posted. I said that in my original post I think.

    Apologies all round.
