Default Beware ebay trader alert!

Thought this might save other people some grief...Won three items off this chap...knew he wouldn't be too happy about the price so offered to negotiate a fair price...could I get a response out of him? Not a chance! So, sadly, after multiple attempts to get a response, I shall just neg him and move on...

Thanks for warning.
If people want more they should either start at a price near that required or put on a reserve if more than £50.

Zeb, he has no options.
If you show up to collect he has to hand them over.
OK, he expected more, he didn't get it, but that's ebay.
So get down (up) there and take them.

Did you use Paypal? If so you can get his address from the transaction details.

If you really want to force the issue Zeb, you can log on to the paypal site and pay direct, stating ebay item and stating item number.

It is still a legal contract for you to buy at the sale price and for him to supply at the closing auction price. He's a damned fool if he's turned down your offer to pay more!!

No, you can get his details ( and sometimes his phone number) go here

http://shop.ebay.co.uk/ebayadvsearch...dtypeZ9?_rdc=1

and request his contact information, you will have to enter an item number from one of the bits you bought and his user id.
When you have done that they will send you an email with his contact details, the only downside is that he gets sent yours, but hey, he's already got them hasn't he!

Try it!:lol:
