Though we might be giving ebay buyers too much credit. The amount of (used) things I've seen bid up to more than you can get one new for (sometimes even on ebay under the exact same search terms) is staggering, frankly. Do a lot of people bid while they're having a drinking session or something? )
Well sure, but I mean it's bad for the buyers ) And it's also not great for the original seller.
If you want to bid on ebay (against bidders who may have no intention of buying the guitar and may not even exist), and thus end up paying more than £250, to a private seller where there is no Vat payable and no warranty, I think it can be argued that is doesn't make any sense.
And to clarify what I said above- I suppose it is good for the first seller if they get slightly more for their stuff. But it's annoying if it then immediately gets sold for more )
In those days....If you told your friends that you had sold your Toaster to a man in St Ives, and that you had covered the Toaster in bubble wrap that cost £1.99, and that the Post Office are going to deliver the Toaster to the man in St Ives....They would usually have you Sectioned.
