Thread: I thnk I have been outbid by the seller!!

  1. #1

    Angry I think I have been outbid by the seller!!

    I bid on a dvd on the happy auctions but have been outbid. I thought I would have a look at the buyers details who outbid me, and they come from exactly the same place as the seller, joined today at around 17.59 and placed the bid with a proxy just after. One and the same person I think! I have a sneaky feeling that this maybe the seller covering their backs as they do not want to sell to me for £1!!!! I know it was a bit naughty but I couldnt help but voice my suspicions to the seller in a question too!

    Thought I was going to get a bargain for a minute!!! I would never dream of setting up another account to outbid buyers if I thought the bids were too low!

    Hi Kelly, have you reported it? let support investigate it for you, it does sound suspicious.


    My auctions, good prices, fair p&p.

    Laughing is good exercise, it's like jogging on the inside.

    Do you have the sellers name? To warn others whilst it is being investigated.
