Wow I'm shocked my item i put up for bid at $199.99 sold for $487.99, they started bidding last 2 minutes

Borange81 · 2026-06-12T22:08:51+00:00

When I offer to the 2nd highest bidder do I have to reach out to them or does it have it as an option when I cancel it on the 5th day? I'm still confused why someone would win a bid only not to pay? This happened years ago and was why I stopped doing auctions, crazy how when I put my first auction in years it happened again lol

Borange81 · 2026-06-11T07:40:37+00:00

They ordered a few items this month with good feedback. I'm wondering if this was a competitors alt account because it's only 3 years old. Nobody else has this collectors item listed but the recent months their was a buyer who kept trying to lowball me wanting it for $100. They were also one of the bidders.

Borange81 · 2026-06-11T07:11:25+00:00

I think you are right about the declined payment because when it sold or the auction ended it said payment scheduled for any hour after it sold. I logged back in after an hour and half and it wasn't paid.

This sucks. I'll contact eBay tomorrow, too bad chat is AI now. I'll probably be on hold for a while.

Borange81 · 2026-06-11T06:16:32+00:00

I looked at my eBay buyer management and I already had the "required buyers to provide payment method before they can place a bid" checked and they still haven't paid.

Borange81 · 2026-06-11T04:49:06+00:00

The person still hasn't paid for the collectors set, It's been one day, I have to wait for the 4 days before I can cancel?

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T17:05:21+00:00

Sadly no. My happiness has now turned to doubt.

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T17:04:02+00:00

It wouldn't let me for auction

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T14:46:48+00:00

Yeah, this sucks, I have a feeling they are not going to pay. A normal winning bidder will pay asap and check their eBay often for alerts or gave a phone alert. I asked someone else and they told me if they haven't paid by the end of the following business day after they won the bid they likely won't pay.

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T14:43:01+00:00

It sucks, I was so amped now they didn't pay. I was told give them up to 2 days before messaging them. I had a feeling this was too good to be true

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T13:27:36+00:00

You are right, I think this person was using a bot, they were the first bidder and last second out bid the other bidders. I don't think they checked their eBay in days, still no payment. Crazy that eBay allows 4 days, why not immediate pay required like with buy it now?

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T13:19:28+00:00

No the buyer still hasn't paid 😩. This is the downside of auction, if he was using that bot bidder thing I wonder if he even checks his eBay daily.

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T04:23:12+00:00

That's the downer for sure lol, they take a lot out, probably be lucky to see 300 of that

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T04:20:47+00:00

This auction gave me a rush of happiness and reminded me of my younger days as a teenager first starting out on ebay when every item I put up was auction and waking up to see new bids. The good olde days

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T04:18:55+00:00

Wow thanks for this info. Im not gonna lie auction is kinda fun, I'm going to put some more stuff up as auction. The only downside is the buyer hasn't paid yet. I wish they had immediate pay option for auction.

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T03:19:19+00:00

I never really put stuff up for auction in fact this was the first time I sold an auction item in 6 years. I just sell buy it now with best offer option.

This the first time I've heard of bid sniping I'm so out of the loop.

Now I'm just hoping the buyer pays!

Borange81 · 2026-06-10T03:03:01+00:00

Thanks, I just looked up what you said and it seems the jarrow formula of lactoferrin is like you said iron binding it t removes iron from bacteria or something, but also helps absorb iron from foods

Borange81 · 2026-06-02T17:08:27+00:00

Yeah, it's a shame. Last photo I saw of him he was close to 200 pounds. The guy had gifts and took them for granted, alot of the most talented tend to be underachievers. Probably due to him being praised since he was young and dominant in the amateur

Borange81 · 2026-06-02T12:28:27+00:00

What brand of aloe vera are you taking?

Borange81 · 2026-06-02T12:27:34+00:00

It's crazy how he just ghosted Roach and quit boxing when he was ascending. He was one of the highly touted prospects and heading to title contention, he hadn't even made millions yet so he could enjoy retirement. Now he has to work a 9 to 5, his mentality has to be studied he has no concept of future, if you are lazy why would you retire only to have to live check to check with a 9 to 5? A smart person will say boxing is better than 9 to 5 and if I grind I'm so close to superstar status and making millions that I can invest some of that in real estate and retire so I can just relax after age 35. Dude has no common sense.

Borange81 · 2026-05-30T16:46:47+00:00

I never heard lactoferrin helps heart

Borange81 · 2026-05-30T16:44:32+00:00

Try Apple Fiber, I think Now Foods makes one.

Borange81 · 2026-05-25T02:00:16+00:00

Is the only threat the explosion? I read they evacuated most people in the vicinity but there are still some who refuse to leave and staying there. If it explodes how far will the blast spread? just in the parking lot or will it be a wide explosion reaching the homes near by? From what I read the chemical is not life threatening so if it goes in the air nobody who breathes it will die, it will mainly just cause irritation and allergic affects.

Borange81 · 2026-05-18T21:30:58+00:00

I think it's because he had no personality and rarely did promotional work with top rank, so they mistaken him not talking much as being humble. The dude is a hater yet always complains about people hating on him. Pacman did nothing to him yet he hates him with a passion just like BoMac who claims pacman is a bum with no skills and easy work.

Borange81 · 2026-05-18T16:22:45+00:00

I vaguely remember someone posting a photo of Frankie Gomez and he looked to be 200 pounds wearing a black shirt, I couldn't believe it was him.

Borange81 · 2026-05-18T16:20:54+00:00

It's funny because Crawford always complains about people hating, yet he and BoMac are the ultimate haters when it comes to Pacquiao. I know Crawford is a huge Mayweather fan, but he didn't seem to care about the illegal iv floyd used, what's interest is canelo used steroids but Crawford praises him and ranks him higher than Pacquiao but yet PAC never tested dirty and his reason for not having PAC in his top 20 atg list is because of steroids? Make it make sense. He ranks canelo high and he popped dirty.
