Would this look suspicious to you? Ebay bids

maybe they run a market stall - used childrens clothes? are they designer labels? things they could feasibly sell on for profit if they are a trader?

This sounds very likely, why not check and see what other items they are currently bidding on?

No history of bidding on kids clothes, loads of auctions for nappies won though! Also mobile phones, books and accessories. 100% feedback.

Now here's something odd, after they won their first item today, I emailed them to say I would invoice them with combined postage when all auctions ended (was planning on sending it all in 1 box by cheapest means possible).
Have just had an email back requesting I invoice them individually! We are talking £35 to £40 of postage here if not combined! (Baby bundle is £10 alone, others vary between £2.50 and £3.

in that case, wait until they end, send it all in one carton, and invoice her the full quoted pp!

:rotfl:
Can't do that would have to send them all individually for my conscience's sake! Seems a bit odd to me that you would want to pay full postage for each item!

They could be buying on behalf of several other people who don't have eBay accounts. In which case, they would need individual bills for each item to claim from the actual buyers ....
