Why did i bother?

******ed. Someone emails me and asks if I'll change an auction to bin for $20. I change it and then they email me and say will I take 15 instead. I changed to best offer and they offer for $10! What a waiste of time. Should have just left it at the auction!

I emailed them and said really? I thought it was $20! So I ended the listing. Not cool.

Best of Luck!

I had a guy bid an item in, then messaged me to ask me to end it early because he had been looking for this item for a long time.

When I said no, he canceled his bid! So I blocked him as a bidder.

I imagine he tried to bid there at the last and got a sad surprise.

I had some dummy from Brazil that wanted to bid on a $500 item that I had listed but he couldn't because I don't accept bids from countries I don't ship to.
I agreed and changed my listing preferences in order for him to bid. So the next day I get a best offer from him for $200 .
I told him I paid more than that for the thing and thanks for wasting my time.
I changed my preferences back to where they were and put him on my blocked bidders list. Low balling piece of...
