Well my hubby isn't a happy chappy. He has been selling some bike parts on ebay recently and had some brakes that ended today. Was rather pleased when they went for £119 and not too worried that the buyer had a 0 feedback and had only just registered today. We all have to start somewhere right? Wrong! By the time he got home from work this person was no longer a registered user, with a private -4 feedback! Wondering what the heck was going on I had a look at what else this individual might have bid on. Well that was certainly an eye opener!
Firstly this is the item my hubby was selling:
for sale (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7117066800)
Then I looked at the bidding history of this moron:
First Moron... (http://cgi6.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MfcISAPICommand=ViewBidItems&sort=3&userid=jraphealonline&completed=1&all=1&rows=25&sacategory=-1&nojspr=y&sspagename=h%3Ah%3Aadvsearch%3AUk&sofocus=bs&sosortproperty=1&satitle=&catref=C5&sorecordsperpage=50&sosortorder=1&from=R7&nojspr=y&pfid=0)
10 pages of it!! All bid on today and a lot of them pushed up to ridiculously high prices!
And he isn't alone! Another one who registered today and racked up 7 pages of bids:
second moron (http://cgi6.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MfcISAPICommand=ViewBidItems&sort=3&userid=step_mark&completed=1&all=1&rows=25&sacategory=-1&nojspr=y&sspagename=h%3Ah%3Aadvsearch%3AUk&sofocus=bs&sosortproperty=1&satitle=&catref=C5&sorecordsperpage=50&sosortorder=1&from=R7&nojspr=y&pfid=0)
And another idiot who thinks it funny to push the bids for cars to silly money:
another moron (http://cgi6.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?MfcISAPICommand=ViewBidItems&sort=3&userid=linej90&completed=1&all=1&rows=25&sacategory=-1&nojspr=y&sspagename=h%3Ah%3Aadvsearch%3AUk&sofocus=bs&sosortproperty=1&satitle=&catref=C5&sorecordsperpage=50&sosortorder=1&from=R7&nojspr=y&pfid=0)
Some people have far too much time on their hands! There were others too... all registered today, won masses of auctions for stupid money most of the time and then were removed by ebay! Looks like my hubby was just unlucky to get caught up in their 'fun'
