Ebay & Honouring A Sale?


Recommended Posts

I've just bought something of eBay, now clearly the daft c**t has left a zero off the end, I've went to make payment and it's pending just now, has he blocked that payment and does he have to honour the sale?

they should but wont have to--to many ways round it I`ve won a few bits cheap then they`ve come up with shit excuses --nannys cats died ,item damaged ,I bought a job lot of antique furniture for 99p they said it had been water damaged , once they`ve open a case to end it ... its down to you but i`ve never got anywhere with it ...

Nope he doesn't have to honour it, sorry mate. The contract is only considered made once he has sent the goods.

 

Look up "Invitation to treat". It means whether you offer a low price, the right price or a higher price, it's still up to him if he wants to honour it. If he had sent it already, he couldn't ask for the higher price.

they do it all the time, offer a no reserve item starting at 99p then withdraw it if it's not made the amount they want, does my head in :icon_eek: . Also the auction with a reserve but nobody knows what the reserve is, what's the point of that? if you want over a certain amount for something start it at that amount, it's all about insertion fees ( wayhay!!) and paying ebay thier percentage of the selling price, it should be once you've put it in @ 99p start no reserve auction your committed to sell at what ever it goes for.

If the seller refuses to sell to you report him as a nonpreforming seller, if he makes a habbit of it he gets lower listing priority for his auctions, if he has a history of it he can get NARU'ed for it. he will also try and get his selling fee's back ebay will ask to to cancel the sale, refuse to do so and he will not get his FVF back.

 

The minimum reserve on ebay is £50 so if there is a reserve on an item you know they want at least £50 for it. If the item is worth more than £50 and there is a reserve on it just email the seller and ask what the reserve is ( most sellers will tell you) then if it's worth it offer him that for a BIN.
