in Baby
Well im furious!! I sold my luna mandarin to a lady a coupleof days ago who said it was for her sister told me some sob story, i said id sell it her even though the bidders went up, cos i said i wouldnt go back on my word! and i would outbid myself through different accoutn!! i sold at a fraction of the price outside ebay! which i know is against rules but i did, cos i felt for her but she did wrong also for asking me to! Anyhow been on ebay and there is my pram being sold by this woman all individual and for a hell of alot more than i sold it for to her! she has lied on her ads saying she bought it for 280 etc ive been in touch with her furious and she said nothing i ca do and its tough! Ive got all her previous emails and also she has got loads of prams etc for sale on there so clearly she is a con artist!! I told her to return the pram and i will refund her the money and i will sell it properly, cos she is a damn liar!! I KNOW I PROB CANT, BUT DOES ANYONE KNOW IF IM WRONG OR HER, SHE SAYS IM HARRASSING HER??

Ebay wont help as you went against their rules but her name and address is on there.
i felt sorry 4 a woman on there when i had a pliko pramette with all the extras, footmuff raincover etc. I sold it to her for 100 pound all in, then when she got it she said she was reporting me to ebay cos there was a small hole in the basket and i had to give her a tenner back, she then sold it on ebay saying it was brand new only used for a month i was furious and she had seperated everything
I am pretty sure that I have seen the exact ad on ebay that you are referring to and this is absolutely shocking. It is true that there is probably not a lot that you can do with regards to going through ebay but I am one of these that will give it a go anyway....despite the fact that you did go against the ebay rules you did it in good faith and probably have emails to prove it. I also agree with akaladyk it wouldn't hurt to give the local police a call and find out if there is anything you can do! From the grammar and spelling in her ad she does not appear to be an educated woman so I am sure that she probably is a little toe rag that is doing this to other people as a means of making a living which I am sure ebay will not like and deception and fraud is illegal....I would definitely be rasing it with ebay and pleading innocence that you did anything wrong. FYI you are actually allowed to end an auction early if you have sold the item by other means.
Sorry that was probably a complete ramble but I got taken in on ebay once too and after complaining the sellers account was suspended.
This sort of thing really gets my goat!
do you have a link to the auction ???

Hi ... is this the pram originally sold by Sara and is currently being investigated by ebay & the police for a deception claim ??? If loads of people do it she may re-consider ??? I'd be prepared to do it ...
I'M SOOOOOO ANNOYED FOR YOU
Also I presume you have her address ... if nothing comes of it ... you can also go the junk mail route & sign her up for every catalogue, bank card offer, free draw .... OOOOH NO, now I am just being nasty !!!
ops:

just asking whether it was the pram originally sold by you that was being investigated for fraud and deception.i was just trying to help you out as ive been ripped off selling on ebay before too x
