ezbass Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I've got to watch this. I'm sure there must be a hefty reserve, but that does seem a ridiculously low start price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashborygirl Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 When I sold my Wal I went for a 99 pence no reserve auction. With an instrument that desirable I figured there was no way it would fail to reach an acceptable price. I ended up getting double what I'd bought it for.

warwickhunt Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 There's no reserve on that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnacleBob Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 If he sticks to cash on pickup after winning it should be ok. The account though hasn't been used in 4 yrs? BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 His sale may not reach to the end... he has stated cash on collection ONLY! That's generally justification for ebay pulling a listing; after all, that circumnavigates their chance of getting more money out of the seller via paypal.

BarnacleBob Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Yes that should be enough to get it pulled - but is that only if someone actually complains - do eBay check the ads themselves? BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB [/quote] I've no idea if it is random/complaint/vigilance but I've had plenty of ebay pulls and I have a feeling that all they have to do is search using 'include description' and putting in "cash on collection only"!
