Ebay collection only sale

ANNA · 2017-03-13 21:52:28

I have an Ikea flat-pack listed for sale on ebay as "collection only", as well as stating I want cash on collection. I don't have time to return it to Ikea. I want it to go asap, so its competitively priced. I keep getting enquiries asking me to wrap and post. I'm a busy person, so don't feel obliged to answer these…

Ikea stuff sells at almost the original price on my local facebook group?

Is it not possible to sell collection items on eBay with a really high courier price (e.g. £200) OR then offer cash on collection? That way if someone is stupid enough to accept such a high courier price and pay PayPal, then the hassle is more than made up for with the money you get??

Or would that not work?

No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)
