Today I got a very funny email from eBay. I replied to them but do not envisage a reply any time soon and even then, it will be some non-connected automated rubbish that will be a laugh in itself. They asked when I was going to pay for a lot that was waiting in my 'shopping basket' !! The lot was a $450 bogus set of stamps from a Libyan Dealer trying to sell something that wasn't....and I never even saw the stamps on eBay, I ONLY saw them advertised on Facebook !! Somehow, the lot found it's way to a shopping basket on eBay in my account !! So I will change my password and wait for a few years for a reply to my queries. In the meantime, do I go after the Libyan dealer ? If anyone else has had an amusing or annoying run-in with an auction site, post it up. I am sure there are many. Londonbus1

A first for me yesterday.I was biding on some large queens from U.K. dealer and my bids were current high,when seller sends me an offer to match what he has been "offered" by a waiting buyer.I declined to pay what amounted to over market and his listings were withdrawn.Wonder if he just became nervous they wouldn't realize what amounts to reserve?? Not a great loss and I didn't have $400 to throw at the queens right now.I was only bargain shopping.Still a new one for me.
