  2. Offer em £3 cash....!!
     
  3. These days something is only worth what two people will pay, the market value of a used front belly pan is £3.20 (only because you had to have it!), if it was me it would probably be €5 keep the change:p
     
  4. I felt the same when I got a new stainless front grill for 99p - no one else bid - result!

    Well, just picked it up.
    Guy had a nearly new T5, Audi TT and Golf GTI on his drive, so didn't feel too bad handing him..........




    .....a £ 5 !
     
  10. and a ride :D
     
  11. Hope you asked for change ;).

    I'd feel a twinge of guilt, but...eBay is an auction. Wrong time of day, wrong starting price, etc. I've had stuff go for crazy low prices, but's that's how it is...
     
  12. Winner :)

    You'd have got a better price if you had big boobs.

  15. On the other hand , when I sell on eBay and it doesn't go for much, when the buyer comes to collect I get them to pay extra by offering to rub my genitals in whatever hair they have. Usually gets at least another tenner for me not to complete my action

  16. The other alternative, if it fetches a low price, is to get the dog to pee on it before shipping.

    I'm with you on this @Betty the Bay I've paid more than has been asked at times if I think the seller is asking ridiculous cheap price and I think it's worth more.

    In the case of the £51 engine it was slightly mis described missing keywords like aircooled... eBay spotted the connection but it did not show up in normal search.
    It was collect from Barry South Wales which seems a long way off... it was..

    The pictures were so fuzzy it looked like it was blobby with rust and caked on gunk. This was honest.
