    The same happened to me. I bought a GORGEOUS pair of silver starburst sandals for £2.40, couldn't walk in them :( so re-listed them a couple of months later and got £28!!!! Couldn't believe it!
    Were they "well worn" by then? ;)

    lol em, no! I explained I was selling them cos I couldn't walk in them! lol I think they went for more money because of when I sold them compared to when the original seller sold them. I bought them in March and sold them at the end of May - so being sandals they sold better then! :rotfl:

    When this happened to me (our car broke down so its was no more buying anything anymore) i contacted the seller and just paid them a few pounds to cover their listing fees and to apologise for me wasting their time.

    I just imagine what it feels like for me when people dont pay.

    Just put yourself in their shoes (as it were lol), what would you want the buyer to do?
