eBay...would you be affended?

So I currently have a 4x4 on eBay.

It's being bidded up by 2 people, both with no feedback and one joined a few days ago, the others in June. Now I don't know how I can tell if they are scam?

I've messaged both of them just introducing myself and stating that the reserve is close and I'd like to make contact as they have no feedback?

Don't know what to do or if I've done this right thing? :er:



Expand.... :lol:

I don't see anything wrong with that. They sound a little suspicious but who's to say really. If they're genuinely new to eBay they might not know everything about the site yet. I reckon just be patient and hope for the best. Either someone turns up on your doorstep with a pile of moolah or you relist your Landie.

Normally it doesn't bother me. I have sold quite a few bits on ebay and just let the auctions runs. Only ever had one none payer and they had good feedback.

Everyone has to join with 0 feedback to start.

I agree we all started at 0 but there is no reason why you can't check to make sure you ain't being scammed
