I bid a tenner for this,expecting it to go for more. Just a bit of fun i suppose. I didn't expect someone to bid 83 quid though!! I think they've paid way over the odds for it,but if they like it then.....

Ha - how about this then...?
A friend of mine bought a leather motorcycle jacket and wore it for over 25 years. He then sold it on eBay to a biker in Japan for more than he had originally paid for it!

It did seem a bit off to me!Imagine wearing some greaser's old leathers!
The same guy used to buy broken Apple computers on eBay and either fix them and sell them whole or strip them down and sell the parts. He once bought a fairly decent one for £20 which was 'dead' but it turned out to be just a blown fuse! The computer worked perfectly when he replaced the fuse and he made a few hundred pounds on that one ...

I decide what I'm prepared to pay, days before the end of the sale, and stick in a bid in the last two seconds if it hasn't been reached.. What's the point in advertising to other bidders that you are interested, or in giving people the chance to react to your bid? I don't use sniping sites. It's far more fun to put in a last second bid personally.

I don't bother bidding in increments, I just ask myself what's the maximum I would pay for the item and stick that bid in on the last day. I sometimes (quite often actually) get things for much less than my maximum if nobody bids too much - but even if I'm outbid I'm not bothered because have the satisfaction of knowing that the winner paid more than it was worth to me... and there will always be another one for me to bid on later.

You should report the winner to Ebay Tommy. It says in their rules that winning an auction is a legal thing where you are committed to pay for it. He could get chucked off Ebay for wasting your time (and losing money).

That's what Fleecebay would have you think but they are wrong, in the US Fleecebay is an Auction site, but in the UK it's a Marketplace due to some old laws we have over here, if it's an Auction you are correct the willing bidder is liable to pay for the goods & can be pursued through the courts if they don't. Fleecebay are unable to enforce that, hence why it's a Marketplace.

I suppose the UK site is reprinting the American rules then. Oh well...
