Post by: Lee GLS on December 08, 2014, 11:14:24 am
I'm selling some brushes on eBay that run out today and the prices are crazy. Here is one if them

Have I advertised it wrong or are people just a little bit stupid?

My theory is "cash" window cleaners.

Don't want records with wfp companies etc.

I have sold ALOT of wfp stuff. loads of its "my gf's account"

True, but the title and search would lead people to what they're looking for, if you see what I mean. List in Ebay UK next time though.

HTH  :D

Am following all 4 of your brushes , they are almost at new prices now  ???. I look at ebay as a way of getting cheaper things not paying more than they are new.lol.  surely they must look at gardiner,s website to see their worth ???

Similar experiences here.  I've sold brushes that were totally and completely knackered (and openly described as so) for 80% of new cost.

I don't think people are just a little bit stupid; I believe that on Ebay people are very, very stupid.

Ebay has changed   :'(

If the customer gets the item and finds it cheaper or don't want it ebay will let them return it to you for a full refund EU laws ;D
