Just looking at some furniture and saw this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Upcycled-decoupaged-wardrobe-/152585387898?hash=item2386cc3f7a:g:-CsAAOSwrfVZQRc1
How would he be able to send these large items free of charge using a courier?
What am I missing here?

It would appear he is paying for the postage & not charging the buyer.Dwy galon, un dyhead,
Dwy dafod ond un iaith,
Dwy raff yn cydio’n ddolen,
Dau enaid ond un taith.0 -
Nevermind the shipping; the item is listed as 'for parts or not working' and uses a photo of an item that clearly isn't decoupaged or, for that matter, a wardrobe. Very strange. I've half a mind to bid just to find out what the product actually is.
With a whopping 1 feedback, I would be inclined to think the seller is new to eBay/the eBay app and doesn't know how to list things correctly. They'll live and learn.A witty saying proves nothing0 -

For a total outlay of 99p it must be worth a purchase
They may mean that it was once a wardrobe but has been upcycled into what is shown in the photo
They have a few others bits of furniture as well - all on with a "buy it now" of 99p .0 -
Hacked account? Get a few 99ps before someone bothers to report a 99p item. Hoping you will contact them for info and they offer a deal off eBay? Forgot to mention it's not for the item but for the chance to buy them item?0

He has sold that one for 99p with free courier. Wonder how he is going to get it delivered?
He has also got another identical one listed now.0 -
Feedback builder? Mates are "buying" the item for 99p and it never actually moves (if it exists)I need to think of something new here...0

Maybe they have realised they have listed incorrectly - After selling a few at 99p they have now closed all their others
