Ok so am selling some figures someone puts a best offer in which was too low. Send a counter offer they counter it with the same original best offer. What makes them think I would accept the same amount when I countered it. I give up.

The one that gets me is when you put a fair best offer in, say an item is 10 quid & you put an offer in of 9 & they then come back to you with an offer at the full price they have it listed - WTF even bother having a best offer option :?

What an arsehole! I will never understand why these negative people bother getting into a hobby which is meant to be fun?

Wow what a twat. Bet he'd be the first person to be doling out negative feedback if it was a couple of days late. :evil:

Personally I would scrap the best offer choice. A lot of sellers will only reduce a little. Once I put a bid in and it was rejected, tried again and ended up with 50p knocked off the figure !!!!!! Hardly worth the effort :roll:

Ebay just attracts morons and scammers. I barely go near it now. It's such a shame as the basic idea behind it is fantastic. But the muppets who run it have made it a paradise for retards and cunts.
