I fuckin hate these shill biddin pieces of shit.....

Pure - You gonna be proud mate, from now on, no matter how bad I want the item, I'm at war with shill bidders.

Ever seen a Scotsman go to war?

We might end up at war. sometime then.
I, alas, have been guilty of shill bidderness in the past.
Mainly as a way of circumventing ebays shitty fees.
Once it's reached a price I'm happy with I let it run without intervention.

I've given up challenging you to roll around on the cobbles.....



Don't get it, I mean someone like me will bid to what you want (or would have done previously) but why not just put a reserve on?

I got this advice recently when thinking about selling and not knowing the best way to list:

"From the ebay side, i can only reommend the following advice: Auctions dont
work!!

Use a buy now price, with what you consider a far price (being greedy means
it wont sell and you still pay listing fees)

Also include an auction start price which is a price which you consider to
be acceptable.

I usually have a difference of 10-15% between the 2. If there is no interest
you can always reduce the prices during the period it is on ebay."

That sounds like a winner to me?

Yeah but everytime you list something on Ebay their taking percentage points off you.
I've got a personal war with Ebay and I want money back that they owe me.
Until the debt is cleared i won't be paying them extra for reserve fees or higher listing fees or any of that shit.
You are obviously more well off than me and maybe your not that bothered about a few quid here and there.
But I sure as fuck am.
Fuck ebay.
I put "offers invited" in all my auctions and if I get a good offer then I'll sell it off of ebay and they'll get nothing but the 99p listing fee.

Aaaaah, I'm naive you see, never sold anything on the Bay so no idea what they do on the fees side.

End of the day, and this is nice and fuzzy I guess, the best place to buy is here!
