"Bidder seemed to bid against themselves (raising the price) and won tens
of thousands worth of auctions."
It doesn't pay to bid against yourself on eBay because now they charge 18 %. It clearly says when you bid you enter a contract. So if you have to buy it from yourself it costs you 18 %. If you fail to buy, then you might get in trouble with eBay.
Buddy and I did some business on there. I fixed the units and he sold them. I am pretty sure we got scammed at least once.
I have heard too many horror stories to sell through them again. People get stuff for free by claiming "not as described" or some stupid shit. Didn't they see the pictures ? Or some kind of damage but they won't send pictures to make a claim with the shipper.
We got totally sick of it. I use Craigslist now, but he lives in a different neighborhood now and because of the situation there people are reluctant to come there. So we are pretty much out of business. It happens.
