I'm not sure...

Seems like a catch 22. Good thing I don't care whether I sell on ebay or not.

Have they paid or was it cash on collection? I've 'sold' a cooker twice on ebay now and no-one has pitched up to pay and take it away - it's very irritating!

It is irritating. They have paid but the thing is the size of a Robin Reliant.

Lots of horror stories on here about ebay refunding collectors EVEN WHEN SELLER HAS A PHOTO OF THEM COLLECTING IT!

DH is being very cool about the fact that he has just gained £400 per month in overtime.

Will be about £1200 off the mortgage.

I had a collection only item (granite worktop) on ebay which the buyer paid Payp@l for. Was really worried as it was a brand new account (that day) with no feedback but figured I wanted shot so if I got a chargeback and lost the money I was no worse off; waited for weeks in case of any issues but never heard a thing. Luck of the draw I guess.

Outstanding, love seeing how OPs affect the mortgage!

smallholdingsister

You're right that most people are still normal and reasonable. The bay does seem to attrac5 scammers though.

Did the buyer show up in the end?

There you go, reducing that mortgage already!
