I won this week ago, and paid last Monday. However, he/she hasn't replied to any of my messages, and his last two feedbacks have been negative (something which happened after I bought it). The feedbacks are from sellers, not buyers, and he says in one of them that his internet broke.

Should I be worried?

Maybe not as I sold him it a few months ago. He has even used the same photo I used when I listed it here.

Ah right. Small world eh?

Is he reliable?

Well he paid straight away via Paypal and left feedback as soon as he received it. His location is correct and if you check his feedback he has bought some of the games he listed. So he seems fairly reliable compared to many people on Ebay.

If he has posted the GC by Royal Mail Parcels it can take a few days to get to you, so I would give it a couple of days.

Aye, I hope he has, I'm just a bit confused that he hasn't replied.

Fairplay if his internet broke though.

That person I had trouble with has now got -3 feedback, hes tried it on with two other people since me. Id like to let Ebay know about his activities, he might find someone gullible enough to send the console out to him soon..

Bad luck with that twat Marcus, i set a few buying conditions on my auctions if its a higher value. Usually the twats don't bother registering a paypal account.

When I advertised that I thought about stating I wouldnt sell to 0 feedback people, but Im sure a lot of genuine people would join up to ebay were they to see my sale and want the item were they not members already. I had several bids on it from 0 feedback people. What buying conditions do you use GT?

[eastyy]

I have only ever bought stuff from ebay i have never sold.

Must say though -3 for the first transactions definetly not a good sign

[smallvillex]

Well i've just qualified as a POWER SELLER!!!

HELL YEAH!!

[Street Turk]

1 bid retracted though...Hmmmmm

[Ginger Tosser]

What buying conditions do you use GT?

Depends on the value of the item, but usually 'Buyers without a PayPal account' and 'Buyers with no credit card on file' are excluded. This does exclude a number of users from purchase but i feel if someone wants to use ebay they'll register with them properly.

For smaller items i don't bother. I have been quite lucky with ebay, only had one none payer and that was for ?10.

Street Turk, bit harsh fella....

Not bad otherwise though

[Street Turk]

Yeah-very impressive. Not even a 0 Feedback git ruining your 100% feedback..

Do you make a lot on those games? Seem to be selling them cheap? Is it a case of sell lots for small profit?

[eastyy]

Well i never buy of anyone with no feedback and who do not use paypal

[smallvillex]

Well tbh sometimes i just can't be bothered so i give some lucky Ebayer snap up a great deal, however with those saturn games i might split em and sell them seperately and start them at ?1. I'm starting to get a lot people coming back to me and bidding on my auctions.

As far as those gits you are talking about....i pray that they stay away from me and my auctions. Plus i cancel peoples bids if i think they might be dodgy....makes me so...
