If you can get more than £4 for it, do you want to buy 100 of them?
I notice no shill bidder. I see someone has placed a number of bids, does that mean they're a shill bidder?
It might, maybe it doesn't, i honestly don't know.
One thing i have picked up on in my time here is that quite often MSE members are very very quick to judge others. So quick they often get it wrong. Has that happened again? Maybe not but also maybe? I don't know.0 -

If that's an admission that you've been quick to judge don't berate yourself. People are offering MSE advice and alternative suggestions, not something you should feel you need to judge.0 -

We can all post links, it's not a problem.
Here's one for you: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/282725003311
There you go, didn't end all that long ago and total price was £23.50, what's your point?
Anything is only worth what someone will pay for it. The ones you linked to were worth what they sold for. The one i linked to was worth £23.50 because that's what it sold for.
I also suspect there's a better chance of the £23.50 one being posted out than the £0.99p one. Who knows, maybe it did get posted out, i'm sure you'll have a link for that.
Like i said, i'll take your word for it, i wasn't calling you a liar, just like i wasn't lying when i said i've seen them sell for more.
It is also worth remembering that just because the buyer paid £23.50 doesn't mean that's what seller got for it. The item went for £15 excluding postage, so assuming postage was reasonably accurate the seller would only have got a little over £12 after fees.
A lot of seller, myself included tend to work on the 'worth' from the sellers point of view i.e. as what the seller gets in hand, not what buyer pays. I am nearly an expert at running through ebay sold listings to check on items I see at auction and 'seeing' the net value to me rather than the sold price and I suspect a lot of other sellers work the same way. That's why value to us s completely different to ebay sold prices.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

You didn't notice the bidder with 100% transactions with that seller?
Check the threads where items were sold and then buyers decided they paid too much and held the seller ransom claiming a partial refund or claiming the goods were faulty. Knowing its going to cost you £5 - £8 to get it back and then possibly have to sell it again.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -

I too think like you as a seller. Someone asked me to go £5 including postage on an item. I thought maybe, until i then worked out that i'd get 20 something pence after deductions and postage so told them no thank you.so assuming postage was reasonably accurate the seller would only have got a little over £12 after fees.0 -
Have you sold it yet? These sell well on local Facebook groups for cash on collection, so no packaging would be needed.0
