No reserve price m8 ??? risky

[adam]

Im on it jasper, put a good bid in. I would like it but not if it goes silly.

[Twinfan]

[Jasper]

Not risky,'cos i haven't decided what i'll take for it yet!So,i might end the Auction early and just keep it!

[Jasper]

Christ we are £155 already!!It's only been on 3 hours!!

[KeefyB]

Now £205!
Sell,sell,sell!!!!!

[Twinfan]

[deej]

[Twinfan]

They're not keen on it geting out are they!!!!!

[adam]

well they should come up with a compensation deal as they will not allow it for sale. They obviously recognise this bike as important so should bear this in mind when dealing with it.

[Jasper]

HOW ANNOYED AM I!!Would you believe that this has got nothing to do with Minichamps!E-bay have ended the listing,are you ready for this?Because...................................... ..............I am not allowed to say"add 5% if paying by paypal".Like every bloody other sale i've done.Instead of contacting me and telling me,so that i can edit my postage details they just ended tha auction.How dodgy does that look now!!Barstewards!!God,i'm annoyed.:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:He re's the e-mail:I will re-list it,but how many people are going to thinks its a fake etc now!!:mad:

Jasp, see my post on "rarest of rare" topic

[Jasper]

Yes,I saw it mate.I don't think the item has been stolen,there has been no indication that it has been stolen or any wrong doing;therefore i don't see myself as a "handler".Thanks for the post though!

[Festa748]

Just put buyer pays pay pal costs in the listing nice bike if you still want to sell it i know someone that will be very interested and give you a good offer

[Jasper]

It will be back on ebay tonight.By all means Festa,let them e-mail me!;)

[antonye]

The point is that you're not supposed to charge extra for PayPal - it's in the terms & conditions of using both ebay and PayPal.

If you're going to get £250+ for this bike, what's the problem with paying a tenner in fees?

[Jasper]

First i didn't know.Secondly they could have let me know 138 sales ago.Thirdly,if i'm going to sell if for £250+ and thet are going to get their cut,why can't THEY swallow the £10!!:mad:
