Getting Frustrated....

RunbeforeIcanwalk

its been a while since I ebayed... I use fb most of the time now. We had a TV to sell so I tried local selling sites on fb. No takers. So I ebayed. However stupidly I was not paying attention whilst listing and instead of a reserve price I entered a BIN... (those damn boxes are rather close together!!).

Within a few minutes someone had hit the BIN and I realised what I had done. Emailed him straight away to say what a bargain he had got. He emailed back to agree (he made a good saving of about £150 due to my mistake) and said he would be in contact to pick it up but it would prob be between Thurs and Sunday.

This was 8/10.

On 12th friday he emailed to say he could pick up Monday. I said ok that fine and agreed a time.

On Monday afternoon I emailed to confirm he would be coming.

He replied send me your details ((Should ebay not given him my details?? I dont think I have ever had to mail someone my address in over a few hundred transactions before) in 15 mins and I will. I replied within 2 minutes. Waited up all evening and nothing.

got a message the next day to say he didnt get message in time. He will come tomorrow.

now its tomorrow and he is still not here. I have emailed but no reply.

What should I do now.??? can I do a Non Paying thingy... A mutual cancellation? relist?

Thanks!!

I would report him to ebay as a time waster but get a reply back from ebay before relisting as you don't want to have to pay the fees again

Or the technical term is to open a non paying bidder. Wait four days and close it. This will reimburse your fees automatically.

Don't sell again until the first buyer has been released from the contract via the NPB.

thanks for your replies.

You know what. He turned up at 10pm!! I had already gone to bed I suppose a good job hubby was still awake and up to deal with him. I would never knock on someones door that late especially not when I had organised a much much earlier time.

Still done now.
