Had an issue this week with someone bidding and winning an item I was selling as collection only. Wanted posting to Spain.
Told the guy I wouldn't send it when he asked before bidding.
He's left me my first negative feedback in over 10 years of being on eBay and it's really pissed me off.
Anyone else had a similar experience?

Bac to ebay. Ebay is happy to take your fees but cares very little about experienced sellers.

There needs to be a decent competator to run ebay out of business. Just my thoughts! :)

Sold a lawn mower a few years back as spares and repairs , guy came to look at it and told him all, the faults etc , he tried it and told me he would be bidding , he won it for 99p and collected it the following day . 2 days later negative feed back saying it was too expensive to repair ! I called him and he said it wasn't what he was expecting , but he paid 99p for a working brigs & Stratton powered ride on mower ! Since then never sold anything through eBay , just use it as advertising !

Appeal to eBay to have it removed, I say you've a fair chance of them doing it, I have had it removed before.

It's great for buyers, but changes in the t&cs for sellers has made me very cautious when selling.

I'm a cautious seller anyway. Did everything I could the guy is just a first class dick.
I've already asked eBay to sort it but no joy as yet. May have to call again.

Surely it's your responsibility to put accurate postage prices on the auction before you list it.

As per Tom, eBay will remove negative feedback if the seller gives them a valid reason - it's been done to me and the negative I left was valid (well IMO anyway) but the seller got it removed.

What I don't understand though, is if you said collection only and he/she contacted you and you still said collection only, why didn't you just remove their bid (I presume you can still do this, last time I sold on eBay it was an option).

Waiting on some one to collect this car as we speak. If they start picking at it and want the price knocked back, I'll be telling them to get back in their car and leave. They'll have negative feedback before the get home.

You can set your account so that all auctions you post cannot be bid on by over-seas bidders.

Doh! That is right, its changed. You use to be able to, but now all you can do is report them. How is anyone supposed to highlight the twats that cause the most grief.

Thankfully, everyone was happy and they drove away with their car *smiley*

To be honest, I've never really had much of a problem buying or selling that wasn't resolved satisfactoriy.

Not that long ago I bought something from hong kong for my r/c car, waited an acceptable amount of time, nothing turned up so I messaged the seller saying I'm happy to wait a small time longer but nothing has arrived, due to the time it would take i wouldn't like another sent out and just a refund instead, they sent me the money straight away no questions asked! Can't say I've had a negative experience on eBay, but I can imagine it frustrating for those that have.

had it with EBAY loads of times had one dick buy some thermal blinds for his camper he messaged and said he really needed them for next day as he was going on holiday in 2 days. fair enough I said as a favour I would send them parcel farce 24hr, and to be fair they tried to deliver the next day but the knob wasnt in! they delvered the day after left with neighbour as the knob wasnt in, got negative feedback for not delivering on time and ruining his holiday....COCK... took about 3 hours of messaging John Smith or some made up name who was clearly in mumbai or somewhere to eventually remove it but it can be done but god its an arse....

Well had the little dickshines feedback removed now so back up to 100%.
Still no action will be taken against him. Should at least let me make a negative feedback against him for all the hassle.
Think i may mail him something smelly or disgusting to make me feel better about it ha ha
