as dose your £6:00 for adding the bin price in the first place....

i've sold a few speedboats on ebay,
the advantage to ending a listing early is you dont pay a final valuation fee!
the seller knows this, and if you know this it a good bargining point.
so if your going to veiw a boat
it always pays to go with a few quid in your pocket to strike a deal....

I know you're right - it's just a good excuse for a rant.


Next week it appears on ebay again, the new seller leaves it on till the end and pockets a few hundred quid profit over what he bought it from you for.

I beg to differ, according to the majority of my customers, I've made so much I don't know what to spend it on!
