I bid as much as I can afford, those extra 9p are just out of reach of my wallet:(

I just don't think it's worth more than the 5k i bid

It’s not just saws-  I was gutted this morning when I looked closer at my trailer and realised it wasn’t a genuine.

I feel your pain Matthew. 

 

Was tucking into my favourite festive snack over Christmas, then my heart sank as I took a second glance at the label.:(

I thought Daniel was just messing, top bloke for pissing off the offending seller on the Bay, bad sellers piss me off having spent the time making sure all I sell is as described!

The seller is obviously a cock and feels that because he was done, he can do un to others......cock, cock, cock!

I reported this twice and have just done it again, there was a day when this would get pulled, what is the point of having a system to report fakes and then leaving them on their system:confused1:

I've been trying to buy a second hand ms440 to cut firewood for my landlord. I bought one 'ready for work' from a garden tools ebayer for good money. I think 'ready for work' meant completely fecked but had given it a quick blow with the airline before sending it off. Fortunately ebay meant he had to refund me. Since then, I've been contacting sellers local to me, saying I would like to check over the saw first and pay cash on collection. Strangely, all 3 I've contacted so far are 'away' so I cannot collect and they will only post the saw. Seems like there are a lot of scammers out there around garden / arb machinery.

Maybe they meant you should be prepared to have to work on it to be able to use it....?

 

I think ebay is descending into a puddle of dishonesty. Quite often when I buy things now marked as being in the uk, they've actually come from far flung places like china malaysia HK etc.

The way people get ripped off by others seems to only make more people more dishonest

my misunderstanding xD

 

Are those new old model stihls (ms200 / ms260 / ms440 etc) that seem to be sold by people with eastern european sounding names legit, or are they those 3D printer copies ? They look real, but it's difficult to be sure from the photos and can't be sure of receiving the actual machine pictured.
