The Down and Dirty ADM Thread

Message at the top of the listing says:

"This listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing."

Lol! Ya the error was the seller's...believing he would get more money. Hopefully the guy gets banned from eBay.

That will only happen if someone files a complaint with eBay.

That's odd. Supposedly you can't end an auction early if the reserve has been met, which it was in this case.

Anyone can end the auction early and did he not state that the car was for sale locally and could end the auction at any time based on his comments in the ad?

Am I missing something here?

Am I looking at the wrong car and if not I suggest that we should have no complaints with him or eBay?

There was a base model I was watching on eBay that hit 60,100 this morning. White with blue stripes and already titled with an owner. Was being sold with 13 miles. That guy ended the auction today 36 hours before it ended. Guess he got a good offer. But didn't think the base model would be getting to such a high amount. That's $10k over which is very good.

So what is your point?

I thought the car was being sold no reserve. No reserve means car (or whatever is being sold) goes to high bidder. Basically you can do whatever you want on eBay cause what's gonna happen? But the rules, published by Ebay say that once reserve is met item is sold. Otherwise why would they have reserve? People would just offer everything no reserve then yank it 5 minutes before the end of the auction if they didn't get enough money.

Sorry, I wasn't saying it should happen - just that there's only one way to get someone banned if you believe eBay's policies have been violated.

I guess I am confused by your comments and maybe I am looking at a different car than you?

You mention a no reserve auction and then mention once the reserve is met and then talk about the item being sold?

Based on your comments you and I may be looking at different vehicles and obviously are not on the same page therefore suggest that we just move on.

Yea I saw that and it's was for sale locally. Must have received a really good offer. Saved himself a bunch of fees too.

I live in Oregon, called 35-40 dealers last week within 1500 miles of me. Nothing I found was available at msrp, ended up with a gt350 ow no stripes, tech package, for 6,400 over sticker. Picked it up Friday. Best price I found was in Oklahoma, all black no stripe, tech pkg for 5k over but it would have cost me 1400 to have it shipped, think it sold on Saturday.

The fees are actually not bad. To sell the car on eBay it cost like $75. Now when your receive some money through PayPal that's another small fee but again, not a lot.

 

[Myshelby3425]

It's like 3.5% through PayPal. They rip. Idk if it's different with a car purchase

I would not be using paypal to make a 60k+ purchase =), nor would I allow it if I was a seller.
