This is exactly why I don't leave feedback as soon as I'm paid ...

    Sure - and I expect that the majority of ebayers are like this: good, genuine people with whom I will have no problems.

    Unfortunately, it is a case of the few who spoil things for the many. I'm sorry to say that your good record is nothing to do with the fact that you leave feedback immediately - it's more to do with good luck that you haven't had to deal with many idiot buyers like the one in my OP!

    Hi ****.



    Thank you for my early feedback. Ebay as it should be none of this I will leave feedback when you leave mine.



    I know now why you have such a fine record. I try to be the same if I buy I pay sap.



    Many thanks

    "suggest bobmacuk is someone to avoid on ebay . "

    why avoid me, I am a buyer that as soon as the sale is complete pays within seconds - only reason to avoid me is you are going to sell me an item that isnt what you say it is

    It's good to see that ambition is not held back by ability. :p


    neither of these ensures you anything in life, so dont belive that you deserve anything if you have bundles of both. The benifit offices are full of people that think the world owes them

    Ah great, just noticed that the high bidder on one of my current game auctions is a zero feedback bidder from the US, bidding on a game that clearly states that it will only play on a UK console. I'm getting that sinking feeling already. I really hope someone outbids them ...

  • I'd send them a message pointing this out AGAIN and ask them to withdraw their bid if it's not right.

    Why should they make contact? They've paid haven't they?! :rolleyes:

    they should contact so the seller can sort out the problem and or offer a refund/replacement!
    thats what i would expect from a seller and also as a seller i would do it for the buyer!
    If I help you please say Ta! :D

    Always look on the bright side of life!!!
