boxst Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 There is a program somewhere (the name of which I've forgotten (very helpful!)) that scans ebay for misspelt words. The theory being that they are less likely to get hits and hence have a low price. Otherwise just trawling manually seems like an uphill struggle to find bargains unless there is something very specific you are after.

Nic Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I don't understand that seems a fair price, not exactly cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmx1lew Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 I don't understand that seems a fair price, not exactly cheap. £148 for 2 bride seats, i would class that as a steal, most people pay more for 1 secondhand, you know what they cost new and with a clean up they would look swish!

_Shane_ Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 A shop a few years back listed a brand new hks boost controller for £0.01 and shipping with £28. Me seeing this bought it there and then Got an invoice then for 28.01. About 5 mins later another invoice comes through this time with postage £320 and item £0.01 Argued and fought over this for about an hour with them and they just laughed and said they were not sending the item for that price etc and i could contact ebay if i wished bla bla bla but no way were they going to send the item Left them a right amount of negative feedback and bought another 10 items from their shop and left more neg feedback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SILKYSMOOTH Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 I had some bargains for sale on ebay all for 10 day listing and had watchers and potential buyers asking to buy the stuff. In the last 1 hour or so ebay decides to cancel all my ads and withdraw all bids, all because I said " These items are also advertised elsewhere so I have the right end the auction at any time". They have been advertised for almost 10 days then they decide to take them off in the last hour....idiots..I cant be asked to advertise them again now.
