So, a friend of mine had a 56 chevy 2 door post he sold on Ebay. car was pretty solid, a little rust, no motor or tranny.
So the car sells for$3250.00, a little low if you check the price of the cars. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) The buyer sends his friend to look at the car and pick it up. The guy crawls over and under the car inspecting it, pays and hauls it off. Couple days later the high bidder calls and says he is not happy with the car. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) My friend offers to repurchase the car, and is happy to do so because he had a local buyer offer more money anyway. The High bidder doesn't want to return the car, but wants part of his money back. Or if he does return the car, he wants an additional $1000 for trailering it both ways. My friend ask me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) and i said no way! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) He is afraid of bad feedback. I told him to take the bad feedback and see if ebay will take it off or just live with it. What would you do? |

what bullshit on the part of the buyer - he had the car inspected and won the auction. the seller is being more than fair. the seller should tell buyer to pay his ebay selling fees as well.

The buyer has to take some responsibility.The car was inspected !!!!! The fact that your friend offered to take it back and refund his money.I think your friend was being a nice guy.I say screw the buyer |
