Ebay bidding

[C26Pinelake]

obviously all EBay bids are not genuine. Seems like you discovered one that was likely bogus. Wayne

Yes it was the black 36 3w , I replied next day I wanted car when could I come to see it , he replied it was sold .Tough call but I agree its best to look first ! Could not understand why he would sell for 40k when it was bid up to 61k before , oh well .

I had always wondered how that worked, you see a car that is worthless and it always has 1 bid on it.

A few Ebay rules I live buy
Always check the sellers feedback... Less than 100% or very few sales are a red flag
Never pay more INCLUDING shipping then you would pay at a swap meet
That means...don't bid more money on an item ( just to make sure you win it) than you are willing to pay.....some one else may be doing the same thing and you might get stuck
Ask questions and ask for more pictures if you are not comfortable.
Make sure you remind the seller to pack the item Very Carefully
(some sellers are "packaging challenged")
I have bought a bunch of stuff on Ebay over the years
I have sold some items/cars too
In general by sticking to my rules......... I'm OK with my experiences
a few minor disappointments here and there.. but for the most part I'm good
