Posted September 30, 200816 yr Can you guys have a look at this ebay item. I bid on it based on the assumption that it was for the stac shown in the photo and nowhere in the ad does it say the price was per sheet, is that the impression you guys get from it? Now that it has ended the bloke has sent me a message saying "I hope you realise the rice was per sheet " I certainly won't be paying that per sheet, I could buy new for that price :yelling: Item incase it doesn't work, item no: 290262540220
September 30, 200816 yr Author I certainly won't be paying it, I'm waiting for a ebay live help person to talk to now
September 30, 200816 yr I would assume that it was for the lot as well not per sheet. I would say he is just trying to screw you for some money! Edited September 30, 200816 yr by Elly spelling
September 30, 200816 yr CRAFTWOOD - MDF AND LAMINATED ASSORTED COLOURS SOME SHEETS WITH WOOD GRAIN, BLACK, WHITE. Read the first sentence ! and the one below ALL NEW USED AS PACKING SHEETS THE TOP AND BOTTOM OF PACKS SOME MARKS ON ONE SIDE ONLY HE SAYS Assorted and ALL !!!!! He has no leg to stand on!

September 30, 200816 yr Author The thing is if it was something I could get posted I would happily fight it but I'm gonna have to go and pick it up off the guy, which is kinda scary as he may get kranky with me He is probably a builder or something and he would have got this all for FREE as it is used to protect building wood during shipping so he should be happy with whatever he gets for it Edited September 30, 200816 yr by KAZ emoticon didnt work
September 30, 200816 yr I wouldn't pay for it if you feel you have a leg to stand on which it seems you do, e-bay has policies on misrepresentation I am sure. Good luck.
September 30, 200816 yr Good luck, Mate - I know what you mean about the FREE STUFF - Dave gets stuff from site every now and then ... Have you got anyone to go with you to pick it up ?
September 30, 200816 yr I had the same problem with the pavers I won the bid on ... But it wasn't the fact of how many pavers there was it was how many people WON the bid
September 30, 200816 yr Author AV said she would go with me if I could organise it when she was free, but, hmmm.. I'm still a little scared
September 30, 200816 yr I have just been in & had a look at the ebay item,If you go in & look at his feed back page,#290244668806 he stated 30 sheets, on this lot he did'nt state how many sheets,He has no come back on you.How much dose he want you to pay.Iwould put it into despute if he will not execpt your bid.Fire off a email to ebay & let them handle it,tell them the other # number with the sheet number & this # had no number of sheets,& they should make him accept your bid of $25.
September 30, 200816 yr So agree Macka... he has nothing to stand on!!! Let ebay deal with him, and if you get the lot for $25, I'd be taking back up with you... BIG back up!!!
September 30, 200816 yr Author Ebay said I could open a dispute and they would force him to accept my offer or he would risk repurcussions from ebay BUT I still have to make the scary journey to Geelong and face the bloke to pick it up
September 30, 200816 yr Ebay said I could open a dispute and they would force him to accept my offer or he would risk repurcussions from ebay BUT I still have to make the scary journey to Geelong and face the bloke to pick it up I guess it comes down to how badly you want it... I live in Geelong and could come with you... BUT I wouldn't scare a fly off a mouse poo!!! :mouse: (and therefor wouldn't provide much back up!!!)
September 30, 200816 yr Author Spoke to my OH and he reckons the guy's trying to take me for a ride. If it comes to it and I can push pick up back a week or two I might be able to organise it for when he's in town and he's over six foot tall and built like a brick sh*thouse (there's one for you Elly :bliss: ) so he'd be good back up

September 30, 200816 yr I would vote for going with your OH, it will take a few weeks to fight it through ebay anyway and your OH scares me and I know him!
September 30, 200816 yr Author He doesn't even scare the kids! That's why mummy has to be the scary one :rofl: The kids know who's in charge...the dogs on't even listen to Leigh
September 30, 200816 yr Yeah but if you met him in a dark alley you would serious think twice and that and he's in the navy and his nick name and geez scared the c**p out of me the first time I met him! (No offence to your OH but dude he is large and navy like and well scarey!)
October 2, 200816 yr Author Well basically I spoke to the guy, he offerred to give them to me cheap (but not at the price that I bid) and I told him I didn't want to drive all the way to Geelong for the price he was offering. I suggested that in future he should be clear in his listings as to what is actually for sale and make sure he states it so that there is no confusion. I'm just gonna let it go as he seems like a nice bloke and it really is more hassle than it's worth. Edited October 2, 200816 yr by melbournebudgies
