    Can we please have it understood that if we get a buyer on here next week asking what to do as they never received their Asda gift card..that someone else deals with it.

    I cannot see how any one who has any common sense could possibly bid on that.

    Just to add, I should not encourage auction interference but is there anyone out there with a throw away account they could use to let the current highest bidder know this is a bad idea, or even let them know about this thread?

    The current highest bidder has herself sold vouchers before...has over 400+ feedback so should know what they are doing. Also registered in Birmingham same as the seller...could be a coincidence :rolleyes: .....

    Or could just be looking for somebody born yesterday :p to buy.

    how can you see the highest bidders profile? i thought all bidders profiles were hidden when an item reached £100 or over

    all i can see is the categories of items they have bid on and that their bid activity with the seller is 24%. hmm
