eBay douchebeans

[Jschmuck2]

My auction for my old BB Pearl finally came to end and I actually got a decent price for it. So naturally, this is the message I get from the winning buyer:



hey uhm im not going to be able to purches the phone intill like
mid november..or i think even bfor that but if yu want yu can undo
mi bid..

Ugh. Gross.

EDIT:

Wow, after telling them that I was reporting them to eBay, here is the response I received:


SO WHO CARES iLL JUST MAKE A NEW ONE WHAT iS EBAY GOiNG

It's the second time this has happened to me in as many auctions

 

[Ksyder]

buy it now + immediate payment required

 

[Adrenaline]

Just ask for positive feedback then and return the favor. Then relist it with a buy it now price.

Really?

Just do a second chance offer. The next bid is probably like $1 less. You can also report this to ebay. I think they might require that you wait a week though before they slam him with a unpaid strike.

Doesn't always work. Douche buyers will still buy it and you end up in the same boat.

The problem now is waiting another 8 days for the buyer to pay while you do an NPB. The guy gets off without any marks on his account as long as he doesn't get a second NPB in a few months.

Then he loses out on ALL fees... plus the buyer could try to nail him for "fraud" to extort the phone or money.

This is the only way I have been buying off ebay in the past year or so. I don't bother with auctions.

that doesn't make any sense. the original problem is that the buyer didn't have money to buy the phone. immediate payment required = money right now or no bid.

of course that strategy doesn't "always" work since ebay now sides with the buyer now. all they have to do is complain to ebay and probably be able to scam some of their money back.

yes I agree olds ... auctions are a waste of time unless a) it is a one of a kind item and you aren't going to find it anywhere else or b) you are about to get a steal in term of price. I mean really, who wants to wait a few days to see if you "won" an item? kind of silly.

Wow, here was there response to me telling them I would report them to eBay:
