It drives me nuts when buyers buy an item on eBay, and THEN want to ask 50 questions about the item to be sure it's what they want. I just wanted to vent. I'm sure this happens to everyone that sells on eBay with any frequency.

I don't sell very often, but from a buyer's perspective I have never understood this either. If I have any questions about a card, I ask the seller before I bid. If the seller does not respond, I normally don't bother with the card. Unfortunately, a lot of the problems that seem to happen on eBay are common sense problems. Most eBayers have no common sense.

That has not happend to me me to much.

My biggest Ebay pet peeve are sellers that dont respond to best offers and just let the expire when they are fair offers.

Fear of loss. i believe thats what it is. Also, since theres no fear of a negative, that adds to the buyers balls

I haven't experienced it more than once or twice but it always aggravates me. If you want to buy it ask the question before. Not that difficult

I have actually offered sellers the exact price something just ended for that I lost.Like if a card I was bidding on goes for $10 and I lose the auction then I usually have a BIN w/BO lined up I am watching and I offer the same amount the card just sold for and half the time its pennies less than their BIN and they still won't accept.My maximum bid for these types of items is usually just a hair less than what the BIN price is for the same card since I figure if I can get it a little cheaper...great.If not go to plan B.But I never understood it though.I mean...I am offering close to what you want and the same price it just ended for.If you can't be happy with that then just sit on the darn thing. :evil:
