Title: What some people will bid on Ebay
Post by: sparksy on March 14, 2013, 12:11:47 PM

I won a Ipad mini and while searching on ebay for bits came across this. its amazing what some people will bid on or dont simply read the description. I wonder what the winning bidder will say when its delivered.

See his listing 'revision'.

mate used to buy hand held radios from Dick Smith, and put them on ebay starting at $20 more than he paid.. sometimes he would more than double his money...


Its on ebay - it must be cheap.

If they read the description, he can't get any negative feedback.

The bloke I work with collects transformers (toys) he put a bid in on a toy and after winning the item he had realised that he just paid $155 for the empty box and the seller had empty box in the description

Lesson learnt

Seems like he took the original auction off then started a new one then ended it. 
The original auction for the empty box got to $152.50 before he cancelled it.
I save a copy of the page but dont know how to put it up.
