I have done it this time and I'm really going to go ahead with it!!

Currently, the computer is selling for: ?1

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... &rd=1&rd=1

I cannae use Ebay, and I cannae see it from school, but it it's good I'm buying it right now lol!!!

I'd love to put a low bid on it, but I can't, and wouldn't win anyway!

The current bid is: ?410

Only one more day left. :'(

Yeah, well.. if it keeps on like this then I'm not selling it. In fact, if it doesn't sell, I'm not even going to bother selling it... I'll just give it to my girlfriend.

Should have put a reserve on it. But, knowing eBay, they'll be a last minute surge, espeically as it will be fairly unnoticed until soon before it sells (if people look for computers they will have to go through a lot to find it).

Well, it sold for ?410. So I relisted it. See [url=http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110123769802]here[/url]

Hang on, are you saying that if it sells for a price you don't like, then you don't even have to sell it to the person who wins the bids?

That sounds rather sinister.

But seriously, ?410 for my PC? Maybe next year.
Also, the person who won the bid was a friend who didn't want to pay for it anyway!

If this computer doesn't sell this time, then I am going to do something else with it...

Why not set the starting bid price a bit higher. Like ?800-?900.
Then, people might start bidding and you might get lots of cash.

I've set a reserve on the PC this time around, and the price has climbed higher in less time, so it may be worth the extra ?15 it cost to list it with the reserve!! Mental pricing. It only cost me ?3 last time.

It costs you money just to list the thing???

Yeah, that's where Ebay gets their millions and squillions of pounds from. That and the extortionate commission on PayPal transfers.

Where does all this money go? Other than maintaining the site?

They're a company. They make money. It's called profit.

The black market.

Oh, yeah, and the drugs they give to the people who made those adverts.

And to support the art of child pornography.

Man eBay is whacked... Though we forgot their support of pilot training in the Afghanistan mountans...

(note to all outsiders who lack braincells - this thread is a joke)

This forum is a joke.

Your mum's a joke!

Just kidding.

Not.

Not.

Gotta have sense of humour otherwise it gets boring here.

Very true.

Did it sell?

He didn't get enough cash so he kept it, I believe.
