I agree, but what is worse is that they take a fee on the POSTAGE AND PACKING costs, so they even take a cut of something that they have done no work towards.

Tell me that ain't the p!ss take of the century?

no the piss take of the century is non UK residents taking out the EHIC card allowing them to claim full medical costs against the NHS even though they have never set foot on UK soil, and our government is allowing it to happen, Rick

The final scammer has been and gone.
He offers to buy the camera and gives it a good look over and everything seems good. He then puts an SD card into the second slot, this camera has SD & CF slots, and nothing. The camera doesn't recognise the card and he walks away from the sale.
That's odd, I say.
Anyway, he gets back in touch to say that he can offer 25% of the original price as a spares or repair camera.
On your bike, I say.

Camera shops says nowt wrong with it.
Grrr!

That's why I don't sell things privately if at all possible.

Lucky escape i reckon.

I knew it wasn't knackered, so he wasn't getting it for 100.
I think I've had a change of heart and am going to keep it now... Too much hassle with Ebay and people...

If I was you I'd buy a lottery ticket.

You've had so much bad luck with to553rs on FleaBay that your luck has to change soon.

Cheer up! Soon be Christmas!

Ebay couldn't believe it when I spoke to them.

I think I've had my lottery luck, I had a £7.10 win last week.
