RESERVATION NO. NINTENDO DS LITE + 2GAMES + TRAVEL PACK
Argos reservation number auction currently at £67.00!! And not as if the high bidder is a newbie!

OK, so enterprising seller, but even so surely this is a bit ridiculous??

Even better is that the store is now shut and the reservation has therefore run out!0

LOL. That is just nuts! If the shop is shut till Monday, this is worthless! Who is more stupid, the guy who put it on to end after the shop shut, or the guy who is now bidding £77.01 !???0

Eighty quid for a reservation!
Anyway I thought I read somewhere that Argos had done something to stop this type of practice. Did I dream it?0 -
It sold for £80 and the code expired today. Incredible!0

OH MY GOD!
Whats wrong with people?????????
I saw something similar to this when the xbox 360 was released, someone was selling an empty xbox 360 box, but they thought it was an xbox 360 console and needless to say, they didnt read it, and it got bid up to about £200 LOL!!!0 -
Does anyone have a disposable account to let the buyer know, as they have a score of 509 and 99.4% feedback and don't really deserve this0

That's the amazing thing - it's stunning that such "experienced" eBayers are failing to read the description. The title is not misleading, and the description is totally clear and really quite concise.
If you have a look at her completed listings you will see that she has sold 2 similar reservations recently at BINs of £7 and £9. I would have thought that she is really rather surprised by this "result".0 -

Yeah it is clear! i have actually emailed the winning bidder! because im nice like that! just said, are you aware you have just won a reservation number?0 -
Tried to contact member but ebay is not allowing me as I have had no contact with ebayer regarding sales and it is for protection reasons. Did try but I hope they realise before they pay0
