Anyone remember the seller who charged £5 a day...

For late payment - late being anything but immediate?

Well, he started a thread on one of the Ebay forums moaning about problem buyers. (Edit to say ebay removed it but someone kept screen shots hence the link!)

If you fancy a chuckle, have a look here.

Ebay removed the thread but some kind soul did screen shots and uploaded them. Some of the postings disappeared as they did them but you get the drift!

    I have just looked but they've all gone.
    He really is a muppet of the highest order, can't believe people are still buying from him!

  • Is he allowed to say this in his listing:
    ALL LATE OR NON PAID ACCOUNTS WILL BE REPORTED TO A CREDIT REFERENCE AGENCY AND WILL BE HELD ON FILE FOR A PERIOD OF SIX YEARS, THIS COULD AFFECT YOUR ABILITY TO OBTAIN CREDIT FOR THE FUTURE

    You can see it on this item: Sony Vaio Laptop

    Surely you are not entering into a credit agreement, or am I wrong?:confused:

    I saw that and thought !!!!!!. I'm sure it must be put there just to scare people. Not sure if they are allowed. Doesn't seem right at all.

    As he requires immediate payment surely it's irrelevent anyway because it won't let you pay late.

    Gawd that took a long time to read.
    Why people still buy from this idiot is beyond me.
    It's BOUGHT (to Buy), not BROUGHT (to bring) AND you cannot be frauded, only DEfrauded.

    Please do not buy animals from a pet store. Visit your local sanctuary or centre and give a good home to an unloved or abandoned animal.

  • £29.99 for postage on that Sony Vaio laptop!!

    Sounds like a right knob. Not by any chance the secret eBay arm of PC-World is it??

    £15 postage for a clock!!

    Sorry, but anything with an LCD screen I wouldn't have shipped anyway. They're deemed as containing glass and none of the couriers will insure them. Have been down that road before.
