I have an item on ebay, I advertised it locally, for £110, no interest at all, put it in ebay, starting at £70, hoping to get about a £100.......it's up to £330, with a day to go!
I put a photo, and accurate, but brief description, new ones are at least £500.
I'ts cash on collection.
What happens if the buyer thinks he has paid too much, is it just tough, as that's the risk with an auction. Obviously I want as good a price as poss, but I would value opinions please.

as long as your description is accurate it should be fine- if the buyer did refuse to pay you would have to report them to ebay. I think the funny thing with ebay is that some things do seem to get decent money - sometimes i bid for second hand stuff then find them cheaper in the shops.......0
