Title: ebay question.....
Post by: bertiecbx550 on 25 November 2009, 22:44:46

If somebody puts a car up for sale and it sells at a low price but the seller says ebay did not put his buy it now price which is a few hundred quid higher....Where would you stand as the winning bidder??? :-/

I'd imagine if he set no reserve the buy it now price would be immaterial & it would sell for the winning bid.

on solid ground, its his problem he fcked up the auction. You won it fair and square, threaten to open a dispute.

Agreed. He could have ended the auction when he realised his mistake, or amended it to add a note, or reported the problem to Ebay. Taking the P*ss.

If it were me he either sells it for the winning bid or a dispute is raised.
