[Rant]
Why do people think they can just ignore the winner of an auction just because they feel the price was too low.
At least.. I think they are ignoring me.
I won a set of 17" alloys on Saturday morning for a very reasonable price (Still >£100 though), and have sent 2 messages asking when I can pop over and collect them. I've heard nothing back, and I even included my mobly number in the messages. I think the seller probably thought they sold for too little monies (they sold for less than half of the 'buy it now' price.)
I know their postcode.. Maybe I'll just go and stalk their road. Look for a big man (his recent feedback included an XL shirt) with a 306. Or maybe he has sold the 306. I need more clues. His name is Lawrence!! Maybe I should go and ask people if they know where Laurence lives.
Why do people use eGay if they aren't willing to accept the fact that maybe their items are not worth £435032.25.
I was going to do cash on collection like I normally do for these things.. Maybe I should paypal the money over and see what happens..
I'm going to eat some cheesestrings now.

I think I have to paypal the money over though to have any grounds as eBay rules state that must be how money is transferred?

Is it sad that I have tried this already? haha did you find 1?
My dad has had this happen to him 5 times on different cars in last 2 weeks as he's looking for new car. He's had 318 for £700 he rang the bloke which replied its not mine I'll ring you back and heared nothing. Today he won a 53plate Alfa for £850 and she being ignorant. And more but I'm not going through them haha.
But if people are going to put their items on eBay and they should be prepared to let them go for what they sell. Specially if your too much of a slimy flint to spend a little extra on a reserve!

I'm not one of those sellers. I've let shit go dirt cheap before! Look at the £130 twin pass I let go for £57.

I bought a full powerflow system on eBay nearly 3 weeks ago before I went away, still waiting for it to turn up. Thing is the guy accepted my offer as he needed it gone and other things he had at the same time have got to people :|

Oh god.....I feel sorry for the seller now.
On a serious note, its not all ebayers! I sold a towbar today that cost 110 pound 6 months ago, for 40 f*cking quid, I still kept to it and let the guy have it though.
