Title: eBay goofs
Post by: chowder on October 30, 2015, 07:41:51 am
I only realised I'd calculated postage completely wrong (in their favour) once someone had won an auction.  Had to spend an extra £10 over what I'd charged them.  D'oh!  Anyone else have any self-inflicted eBay related mishaps?

One time I sold some Nintendo Power stickers and posters to someone and ended up not making any money and paying for the shipping :(

I shipped two eBay items at the same time, even though I was only paid for one of them, thinking I'd save myself a trip and get it to the buyer early. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand...





















YOU GUESSED IT!
The buyer never paid.

But it was okay! Because the item was just this hardware "hack":

Even funnier, someone online contacted me, saying they found a cartridge with that label at a pawn shop. ;D I wonder if it was the exact same one. ???
