kurt Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 http://www.ebay.com/itm/HUGE-LOT-of-16-000-VINYL-LPs-plus-1000s-of-45s-and-AUDIO-CASSETTES-/280834568430 ?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item41630b70eeA part of me wants to blow my entire tax return on this and open my own record store. I wish I had the guts to do it. This is only a couple hours away from me. Wish I knew something about what's in there. Not horribly far from me either. Haha it would be tight if like ten of us went in on this and split up the good stuff... the question of course being how much "good stuff" is actually in there. That number may include 1000 copies of "Barry Manilow - Greatest Hits Volume II". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingvinyl Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ I scanned the pictures thoroughly for a few minutes. I didn't see one thing that looked like it could be sold for over $3. If he had some good stereo equipment, it might be worth it. But that looks like thrift store records.

That would fill my whole upstairs and I have a big house. Can't imagine how long this would take to carry and store and go through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circuit bored records Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Anybody who sell on eBay recently have any people cancelling bids and cancelling transactions after winning them? (and no, I'm not referring to TAITA : ) Recently I've had three separate buyers back out of transactions (after not paying for over a week of course ), several other people also cancelling bids during the auction shortly after placing them. I don't get it at all, if you don't want or think you will be able to pay for an item, don't bid, it's that simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like recently I won a sunny day real estate 7 inch that i completely forgot I bid on, and had apparently put a decent offer on it without realizing it was a 7"(paid around the price of a 2xlp if not more) but i still paid for it.

I don't even mind if people are short on cash, we've all been there but I also wouldn't mind a courtesy email letting me know when to expect the payment so I'm not left wondering. I've sold on eBay since '04 and never really ran into this issue much before (or at all really) but it seems like it's happening more and more lately, people just haphazardly throwing bids around and then not paying or communicating once they win it.

You are better off saying that a non-paying bidder claim will be opened if payment is not received within 4 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But apparently you cant read, as I never said in all of that, that I win auctions and dont pay for them. What you said seems reasonable, I just get frustrated when I can't get a payment or even a single response from a buyer at all after they win an item. And moonbeams has a good point, final value fees are also charged to a sellers account immediately after an item sells, NOT after the payment is received. Yet I can't open a case until 4 days after the auction ends, and fees are not refunded until 7 days after that. So I'm out the funds for nearly half a month. Meanwhile, eBay has already deducted all the fees from my Paypal account for an item I never received a payment for, and never even sold. Like I said, I also list in all of my auctions specifically to pay within 24 hours for this reason, and more recently it seems buyers don't read the descriptions and don't take their bids very seriously. I've also tried the four day route, doesn't make a difference IMO, people just don't care anymore. My main point, if you win something (especially from one of my auctions), please pay in a timely manner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
