dollywobbler Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 You can relist (or not) but you can still get your listing fees back either way. I did this with the Pug 309 and sold it on Gumtree instead. That was a while ago though, so don't ask me how! Took some searching but got there in the end.

Jim Bell Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Is it possible to relist without paying the fee by some complaints procedure? We all frequently see "relisted due to timewaster", or do they have to pay each time? Report the buyer as a non paying bidder. Youll automatically get the fees back. You may have to wait a few days though. Cavcraft and Junkman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garbaldy Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 An Autoshite member did that to me for three months, so it's not just ebay mensa members.Well I waited a full 12 months for a member from here to collect a free set of wheels. You file a none paying bidder with ebay and you get your final value fee back £20. You can then relist it for free but only if it sells not sure how that works as I've never relisted anything. I think to keep relisting things atracts the people who think they can get it for nothing since you have been messed about already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derskine Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I keep stumbling across your BX on ebayThe old story goes "if I had cash I would buy it" but in this case I genuinely wouldEbay is hit and miss, I'm not a fan and the £10 listing fee for cars is ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willswitchengage Posted January 7, 2014 Author Share Posted January 7, 2014 Sold... Pretty bizarre experience too. Tramp-like voiced bloke and I exchanged a few phone calls and we agreed that they did in fact have the money (his wife had received her disability benefits, and he had managed to scrap his old car) so we proceeded. He couldn't get up here despite it being a few stops on the same train line so I agreed to deliver him the car and then drive me back home - it was only 45 minutes or so away. Turned up, mistakenly said "yes I do like dogs" and got slobbered on by the fattest Staffy I have ever seen, and exchanged paperwork. Two fat ladies on the sofa being for some reason very rude to me, although they were quite happy when I said they could cash in the remaining tax and put it on their disabled rate. Journey home was very odd and seemed like an NHS anti-smoking advert as the bloke puffed his way through half a dozen rollies (I mistakenly said I also smoke) and he periodically sprayed germs all over me. Seemed to not know an awful lot about cars either. Bonus though: gave me an extra £20 for my efforts His old car was a 406 TD whichs gearbox had died 500 miles after he bought it, so was "taking the dealer to a tribunal". Does he stand a chance? I'm intrigued, people on here have often debated seller liability stuff Rusty_Rocket 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
