ebay ahhhhhh

It really annoys me that some guys sell and make lots of profit for something you can get half the price from a proper shop check out this boot liner for a surf:

You can buy them direct from complexsion for 25 quid crazy (plus 7.50 p&p)

Thats why you use forums etc, to find what is the best for your own needs, and use the experience of others. I know thats why I use forums.

Ebay is not always the best, but to be honest I have got some good deals there. As always it pays to shop around.

In this case I would check for rubber matting in general and cut to suit, it could work out a lot cheaper.

auctions are auctions you don't have to bid ! If some people are daft enough to pay over the odds let them. top marks for enterprise

I usually email the bidder if I come across something like that. A couple of times I've been emailed about an item cheaper, so what goes around etc etc

After getting burned once on ebay I am very careful now and check the price to buy the items elsewhere. To be honest though, I tend to be looking for something specific when I buy on ebay anyway so I already know what the value is - for example my latest ebay purchase was 2 bilstein rally shocks for my 205 which are £80+vat + delivery each elsewhere. I got the pair for £79 inc the postage :

I guess it's a free country with no price controls. If someone is too stupid or lazy to shop around then that's their problem.

Now where did I put that piece of haddock that Brittany spat out...

That's why my mate calls it DelBay. "Watch out Rodney, here comes the old bill."

some guy bought the wrong ink cartridges once - i got them delivered for £15!!! that was for 3 black and 3 colour for my epson (cheap ones retail around £9-10 each) - My best ever bargain.....

Whats yours???

[stan]

I've bought and sold stuff on Ebay really cheap and over the top, it all goes around.

Best profit was a Argos nail gun and compressor, that cost me £90, I kept the nail gun and put the compressor on ebay, and got £95 for it

But on the other hand, we put a nearly new fish tank set-up that cost about £200, and some lucky guy got it for £50.

Stuff is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. No one forces you to buy it.
