Annoyed
« on: 30 May 2008, 15:55:06 »

I specifically travelled from Cardiff to Cheltenham today so that in the morning I can meet the buyer of the Disco.

I've just had an email from her stating that because she couldn't sell her car, she now has a payment problem

I could have worked from home today and saved my costs and time - to say nothing of the £50 in listing/final value fee's it's cost me.

So much for protecting the buyer - another instance of the seller getting shafted  >:( >:(

Interesting how they won't answer their phones to discuss alternative dates too.

You had a fair idea something was amiss after the payment method  >:(

If they can't buy it outright, or they want to pull out, why can't they do the decent thing and just tell me !!

If they let me down tomorrow, I will not hesitate to start an unpaid item dispute and relist it immediately!!

Finally - a call.

They can't buy it because they don't have the money until they sell something else.

Charming.

They have 24 hours else I log an unpaid item and relist it :(

Surely if the delivery charge was initially on his listing then he hasn't got a leg to stand on!

I have never used e-bay and never will due to all the hastle and fraud that clearly goes on.  Savings there may be, but the risks outwiegh the advantages in my opinion. :)
