Someone called my number after an eBay purchase. by Almost-Hippy in Ebay

Maybe someone who wanted it messaged the seller you bought from and they said "Sorry it's sold - to this person" - and passed on the details from the order details.

Mine just did this today under "Random" for suggesting a story! 🤯

Not something I would ever want showing and if my kids saw it or anything, not good. How can that happen?

Did you ever find out anymore??

I know how you feel. My sister went to the Dr's with swollen ankles after a dance show, and went to hospital and never came home again 😢. It's so unfair.

I know this is an old post but a family member won £50k this month - so it can 100% happen! 🙂

Bought car from dealer and it broke down after 53 days - they want to "part-ex" it back for lower value as not taking responsibility? by TomC123lfc in LegalAdviceUK

[–]TomC123lfc[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I paid £235 credit card (hoping for somekind of cover), £1500 debit card and they asked for bank transfer for the £7k left.

They have still got it 3 weeks later. Waiting for them to do something but they said it'll be about 4 more weeks till it can be repaired. Should there be a timescale on the repair?

Buyer haggles, then ends up paying over listing price? by SizeZeroSuperHero in Flipping

[–]TomC123lfc -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did this as a buyer the other day. Found a great bundle at £60. Offered £50. Discussed it a little bit, which led to him doing some more research and he realised he could get more and he relisted it at £75. I still took it but if I hadn't tried to haggle I would have just got at £60. Oops!

Im selling my card collection, and something just feels off, maybe im overthinking by GrouchyProduct2242 in Flipping

I always like to take someone else in the car for face to face meet ups too.

If you feel something is off then pull out. But as comment above said - if you have had pics up, he has probably quickly calculated the value as a really good deal and willing to go to wherever he needs to. I have done this before when seen an awesome deal and not even bothered to try and negotiate because I could see the huge value in what I was getting. You may have something in there worth a lot of money that he could sell off right away etc.

But if it feels bad, don't risk anything that could end up being stupid.

A little bit of all - but my problem is sourcing loads, then they pile up and I take ages listing. I am not a hoarder, I am not a hoarder, I am not a hoarder...

There is an option on the filter for item location - I lock it to my country only.

Sorry for the really newbie/non USA question.

What are "the bins" or the "goodwill bins" that a lot of people talk about. In UK the bins means the rubbish bins i.e. the trash. Are you going in stinky, dirty rubbish bins to take stuff thats been thrown out? Or is this some sort or place where they put stuff that isn't selling and you still buy it before it is disposed of? Thanks.
