If you are buying these look out for the postage costs.

Quite often i see things and dont check the postage, snipe and forget about it.

I think that's really naughty, can you report them to eBay?

SaMAlex · « **Reply #2 on:** March 27, 2007, 03:47 PM »

I wonder what would happen if you won them at 99p and then you said youd go and pick them up?

They do it to save on ebay fees on the final selling price, as you don't have to pay them on postage...

You go through the safety centre and click on the links to complain about excessive postage. It's there in b&w now, he's stated he's done this to get his price and that's a big no-no in ebay rules....

Copy the item number and go to here:
