Just a quick heads regarding this Ebay seller ...I recently 'won' a facelift grille from the above, but trying to get contact info regarding payment/collection out him was like trying to get blood out of a stone & i still haven't heard from him ...even tho' he's relisted it (& surprise surprise it's now at a higher price than i won it for)

He's got quite a few Subaru bits & bobs, so be warned

 

makes honest people look bad doesnt it
i always chuck a few bits on there and get them posted out within 2 days of auction ending( subject to immediate payment)
thing is when i sell stuff on there its usually just odds and ends that are cluttering the place up so i put it on therer really cheap as well!

 

just to make things absolutely clear, this seller has absolutely nothing to do with us (despite a very similar name!).

Heres the link I think you're referring to

Sorry Neil, didn't mention that he's nothing to do with you

& here's the item i 'won'

IMPREZA TURBO FACELIFT GRILL WITH BADGE IN PRIMER on eBay, also, Subaru, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 13-Sep-08 20:52:56 BST)

Luckily i was going to pay cash on collection so i'm not out of pocket ...but to then relist & it suddenly is worth more with a few days to go smells a bit iffy to me

So if you're reading this 'scoobysworld' aka Gav from Rednal ...just put a 'reserve' on the item's you're selling if you want a minimum price & stop mucking people about!

 

Looks like he has listed it again? i have sent him a question..lets see if he replies..

 

does my head in when people are idiots on fleabay i won a cat convertor for mine on there, paid by cheque(they had no paypal etc) which when was cashed about a week i sent an emaik asking when it would be delivered, he just sent me a cheque back for the same amount, with no explanation or anything,

 

Isn't that the point of eBay feedback? This guy has 100% positive, you need to leave feedback on eBay to help buyers avoid

 

I was watching this when you won it i think and i am watching it now. Maybe I'll just avoid it.

 

If he was an idiot he would not have sent you a cheque back..

 

*was* a bit wary of doing so, as it used to end up as t1t for tat negative comments ...but i've just read that ebay has changed feedback rules for buyers!

so now his is down to 83%

 

If you have the original item and listing still, report it to Ebay. Surly they could d something about it, but then they probably could but probably wouldn't

I don't agree with buyers being able to hide there details and only being shown as Bidder1, Bidder2 etc You don't know if your bidding against the seller or a friend of the sellers. I had that before and I traced it back to the sellers wife. She was the one I was bidding against
