I listed a item for 99p or buy it now for £20. Someone bid the 99p. Its now up to £6odd with almost 24hrs left and 29 watchers. I just had a message now off the woman who bid the 99p on it asking me if I would put it on a BIN for her at £10. Erm, no! :mad:
She has the loaded handbag of someone who camps out and seldom goes home, or who imagines life must be full of emergencies..

it's actually not too bad.... you hear al sorts of stories, like people who buy first then try to get a lower price saying that your items is not worth that much after all, of that they are unemployed/disabled/terminally ill etc etc (sadly)0 -
£10 offer on something you lave listed for £20 seems pretty good to me. I have something listed at £130, and have been offered £40 :rotfl:You're only young once, but you can be immature forever

Its not the fact shes asked for it on a BIN (Gawd knows I have pushed my luck on best offers in the past lol)..its the fact she knocked the BIN off by bidding and now she knows shes not getting it for 99p she suddenly needs to buy it on a BIN as shes going away and needs it quick..more like she wants it for £10 as we all know its going to go higher than that lolShe has the loaded handbag of someone who camps out and seldom goes home, or who imagines life must be full of emergencies..0

I just ignore people like that, send them a polite refusal.
I've sold cars on ebay before, cars that are worth around £1200 easily and people would offer '£250 cash, I'll pick it up tomorrow' ... :rotfl:Trying to spread calmness, understanding and optimism on MSE
