Rick Weis Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 this sure is a fuuny auction not only that if you look at his feedback he "shows" a 4 but only 3 posted feedback points! and the first 2 feedback points were left by testenterpriseseller testpowerseller both with test in the name! weird!! Take Care, Rick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markimus of K. Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 oooooh! oooooh! I never knew about test Coffee pots, but after seeing those auctions, I know I REALLY NEED ONE! No, I'm not cynical.... Markimus of K. (As Always.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRetroGamer Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 There looks like some fishy business going on, like several ID's that are bidding on these "test" items and then leaving feedback. I think EBAY needs to be aware of something like this, looks like feedback padding or something. I mean, how can you leave feedback for buying a test coffee pot? But yet, someone did.

Take Care, Rick Yes, this have I not see before. But he must always pay money for every ebay auction. So why would someone do it and so get higher ebay feedbacks? Its stupid.

lonesome_pa Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Fishy indeed. I mean "test boxes", "test auction-men's belts", "test item ~ nothing here :)". Sounds like someone trying to build up false feedback. Wonder what would happen if one of us actually bid on one of them, paid by sending in a quarter (since the shipping is $0.00) and then give a negative because the seller didn't ship. Then someone would have a legit reason to contact eBay because they got scammed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lonesome_pa Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 Hey Jahfish, he has another one up for $0.29. Better act quickly!!!!!!! Is this guy for real?????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonesome_pa Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 It's quite clear now that this guy is obviously building up false bids. Check his feedback and see that one was left on the 18th. These people are probaly in cohoots with one another. I e-mailed ebay informing them of these auctions. I am still considering bidding on one and see if my bid gets cancelled or if I actually "win". It really irks me to see this kind of stuff happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrRetroGamer Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 I reported this situation to EBAY too, but the basically blew me off and have obviously not done anything about these people. How they can leave feedback for a transaction that never happened is beyond me, but they do and they are, and EBAY does not seem to give a crap. Retards!

MattyXB Posted July 20, 2002 Author Share Posted July 20, 2002 Whats that, I never seen before: Ebay Test Auctions So everyone can test auctions. This is the reason why ebay do nothing. And this is new for me too: Ebay Weird Stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted July 20, 2002 Share Posted July 20, 2002 So everyone can test auctions. This is the reason why ebay do nothing. Interesting, I notice those auctions are in a TEST category. I wonder if eBay still charges fees when you list auctions in that category. There are also several test auctions posted by eBay. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
