I've got a bike for sale on ebay and have two guys bidding it up pretty high and neither have any feedback What does a guy do in this case. Do I cancel their bids out, block them bidding, or just wait it out to see if their legit?

 

I would worry about zero feed back on sellers but would not worry that much about bidders. After all, if you have it set up right they're required to make a deposit within a set amount of time right? So, either they do or they don't. If they don't I'm sure you could contact the next higher bidder and sell to him. Also, they won't get the merchandise until they pay for it. Just be sure it's cash or certified funds.

 

Meanwhile I'm waiting the 48hrs out to see if they make the required downpayment and loosing valuable time as I'll be forced to repost it and let it run it's coarse once again if they don't. I'm not worried about loosing the bike and not getting paid. This will never happen! I just want to get'r sold.

 

Its called SHILL BIDDING....... Beware they will keep out pacing you to drive their price..... my advise pick your number..... If it goes over that simplywalk away!

 

I think you've misunderstood me Donny.
I'm selling the item.
Thesetwo dudes are running up the bid and I'm guessing have no intentions of buying. I'm hoping they are serious bidders and the winner pays for it.

 

Check with your bank and see if they accept direct wire transfers.
If you can have the titled notorized in your bank, after they confirm
the transfer. Both the buyer and seller are protected and feel safer.
You don't have to worry about phony checks or being robbed.

 

That's a great idea. I did recieve the requested PayPal down payment so it looks to be legit.

 

Not sure if you can do it now since the bidding has started, but you need to go into your account on ebay ane find yoursellingpreferences.You can block bidders with say two negatives within a cetain period.That's what i did.Not sure if it offers to block with no feedback though.First item I sold ,the winner never payed , when I tried to get in touch with him he was no longer a registered user.Relisted it and it sold. Also, not sure about a bike or a car but once the item is sold ebay pulls their fee,even though the item has not been paid for.Make sure if you get stood up you file the unpaid item so you can get your seller fees credited back.

 

I'd contact the bidders and see if they are serious, what kinda bike r u sellin?

 

Your right....Mis-understood you......As a Seller I would not worry to much....That is what sometimes makes an Ebay Auction Rock! Two people that want your Bike! If its games relist and qualify bidders upfront under X amount of feedback.

Let us know how it turns out.
