can a seller state free postage (Which it has to for ebay rules) and then put in the description £4 and if i won it is there away of not paying the £4. i think the seller might be more hassle than the games worth and also theres no pic.

your opinion and thoughts please

I think everyone is missing the point!

Call of Duty 5 is rubbish compared to COD4, so save your money and don't buy it!!

There is another thread in this topic here from a seller: -

We can see if the item is pulled or not....

Yea, but not by choice, as i say i agree that the seller is asking for trouble and if he had any sense he would add the postage the sale price, i just don't agree he is ripping people off or deserves a neg.

if you don't like it buy elsewhere, if you don't read the whole listing and therefore don't realise that he is going to charge extra hold your hands up to partial responsibility for not reading the listing and request a mutual withdrawal, only if he refused a withdrawal would i neg him, but i suppose that's just me, then again i wouldn't be in that situation because i read listings before i buy and make an informed decision

If you don't agree with Ebay rules SELL elsewhere, it is a free P+P category and seller obviously don't agree with it, so he should not use Ebay rather than buyer who is more than happy to get such free P+P.

COD 4 online replaces the need for any sort of social life but be warned, it's highly addictive.

i have a shop on ebay and changed all my postage to free but in my listings say 75p
i was not ending and changing and paying again as it is unfair as it is just another way for ebay to get even more money out of you

You will get reported or some buyer will buy and rightfully refuse to pay it and neg you. If you keep it up your selling career will be very short.
Just add the postage to your start price whats so difficult in that, Your choice

the postage is free so i have nothing to include into my price as it is already added
the item is less the £2 with free postage postage USED to be 75p which is what it states in the listing. It is the fact i revise my listing to take the 75p out of the description is the point i am making as MY POSTAGE IS FREE.

I'm not entirely sure I follow you, but if you mean that you are not charging any postage and just have a stray statement in your auctions about a 75p charge which you do not apply then I think you still have problems. If buyers think you are going to charge them then they will do as has been mentioned on this thread and others over the past couple of days and either report you or just ignore your auctions and you effectively destroy your business.

As for not fair, there was at least 3 months notice of this change surely you had some chance of revising your auctions before now?
