Recently made an offer in one of those 'buy-it-now' or 'best offer' auctions. My offer was not declined, the seller made a counter offer but the listing ended before I saw it.
Now the seller is offering to honour his counter offer and I agreed. However doing a bit more thinking it occurs to me the transaction will be outside ebay's system and they presumably will receive no commission. Looking at their T&C this is unsurprisingly against their rules.
Is there any way this transaction can go ahead without ebay losing out and me losing the buyer's protection?
I am a little dubious about the seller as he has upped the postage a bit for this transaction and has a 100% but not on a large number of feedbacks. My inclination is to walk away unless the deal can be ebayed.
Any comments welcomed.
