another ebay 'great' buy

[spudulike]

Final count on the sale of the fake Stihl, £212.....thats right £212, when I sold a saw from the same factory but not a fake I got £36.

 

Ebay have done nothing, I have again complained, I feel sorry for the guy that purchased it, you can say that they should be a bit smarter but the seller is a crook and he didn't withdraw the sale when I mailed him.

 

I work damn hard to get a saw ready for ebay and up to scratch - £212, what a bummer.

what an utter [insert profanity]

that is worth £40 brand new ffs!

We should put the bids upto thousands and then just not pay for it. E bay will take more notice then??? Or maybe not. At least it will prevent a genuine sale and the seller loses out.

Yeh,I too reported it,got an email thanking me from conbay,and they just let it run,really frustrating that nothing was done.

I reported too, but obviously nothing happened, I just feel bad for the soon to be disappointed buyer

[spudulike]

Yup - the buyer will probably leave good feedback and not realise he has been done until he tries to get spares or tries to workout the model number.

 

Caveat Emptor - buyer beware!

 

Gives us honest traders a bad name!

I asked the seller for confirmation it was a genuine Stihl and for the model number, as well as asking if he had used it for cutting timber. I was surprised to not get an answer

Thing is tho, these saws are dangerous !!
