    LOL. I havnt ended it yet, the guy who wants it never makes his mind up. so, when he actually gives me the money thats when I would end the item, I dont want to end it and then the guy saying he doesnt want it anymore.

    I should find out by tomorow, I probably would get more on eBay, but he is a very nice guy and helped me out quite a bit at work.

    Hmm... so if this friend doesn't pay you for a few days then technically you're going to be 'selling' an item that has actually been sold?

    Nope. By tomorow I'll find out, I was going to give the phone to him last night but didnt, so, the phone is going to be out of my hands for half a day max.

    He will let me know asap, my auction ends in 4 days anyway and there are no bids.

    lazy...try reading what I said...which is that you ARE under-aged..and YOU DO USE SOMEONE else's account.... we know it's your sister's ..you've bleated on about it enough times.
    Low feedback also has a LOT to do with it..especially where buying mobiles from someone with low feedback is concerned...and 10 is LOW!! ..and the feedback is surely your sister's not yours since you can't legally have an account??

    Now you not only admit you're using your sister's account ( again) but that if any of your deals go wrong....it's " her fault" !!

    And you're right ..there's nothing I can do about you having an illegal account, like I care anyway about a second hand cheap mobile phone seller !!! ...but that's precisely why I try to avoid sellers like you who act illegally and are happy to let other people carry the can if it goes wrong..........

    Your comment about letting your sister carry the can if it goes wrong sums you and your type up perfectly lazy.................

    If you don't care why are you so concerned? ? ? Nearly every thread I make your in it....what is it with you?

    'second hand cheap mobile phone' - hmmm, I don't see anything wrong with that, everything I sell is described well with more than enough pictures. Actually, more than half the feedback is due to me, effectively it is my sisters but they have come due to me.

    She is my sister, I dont know about your family, the way your going on about it they dont seem like a fmaily but mine do care and would do anything to protect me and vice versa, and this isnt really about protection. All I was saying is that my sister knows she will have to take the burden if something goes wrong, which won't, I never said I would shift the blame onto her and thats it.

    Do you know what, Im not going to even carry on. At the end of the day I've got happy customers, thats all that matters. I'm not selling dodgy gear, conning people or anything like that, YES I use my sisters account, and as long as she lets me I dont give a toss about you or other people who love to have a go.

    Maybe your just jealous that a 16 year old boy, who in your stereotypical mind is a deceiving, lying thug and who doesnt care about others, can manage to use eBay (with a little help from HELPFUL members on this board), sell, buy and have 100% postive feedback.

    EDIT: BTW 10 feedback is LOW, everyone knows that but it's quite abit when considering it took 1 week to get, everyone yes including you started from 0 one day, you cant just get some magic tool that gives you 100 positive feedback!!

    Yes you can. How do you think scammers accumulate positive feedback so quickly?
    Can I help?

    They get others to give them postive feedback, and there are tell tell signs e.g. all feedback given at the same time/day or by the same person. You can also check by the items bought. You cant possibly get all that right.

    yyesh Give the kid break , at least hes not out robbing old ladies , or selling drugs ,Yes he's not old enough to sell on ebay , but at least he has explaned himself and if his sister is happy to keep an eye on him , well done ,(you can leave school and get an adult job at 16 ) My kids (12 - 14) use my id under my supervision to sell all their unwanted ,games and outgrown toys , It teaches them the value of money , and they appreciate that i get into trouble if they get it wrong (they never have btw and we now have over 500 + feedback)
    I dont know lazymonezy history , but he seems grown up enough to ask for advice .

    all the best andy

    Thanks. Your comments are spot on, atleast I aint robbing, doing drugs like 90% of the teenagers in my area....trust SOUTH LONDON, is not a nice place. I look at it in two ways. 1. I earn a little bit of cash 2. I study business and buying selling, anything to do with it is a bonuse for my course. As long as it helps I dont care what anyone thinks.

    So, lazymoezy has your friend bought the mobile or is it still up for sale?
