brucebidder Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 (edited) http://cgi.ebay.com/Kid-Vid-Voice-Module-f...1QQcmdZViewItem I guess this guy is completely off his rocker and never sold on ebay before. SO the item has been sold but has three days left and is still getting bids.... Oh yeah he knows how to edit an auction but can't close the auction?

I guess this guy does not now how to cancel bids and relist it with a buy it now. I think that is a great way to have people bid on your auctions. Tell them that bidding is done with and they can't bid on it. That is too good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Psionic Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 What an idiot. If you forgot to add a BIN option, so be it...why would you end the auction with the bidding already going over your price? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Grrr, I still need the Smurfs Save the Day manual! I'm continually amazed by people who seem to possess the rudimentary skills to operate a computer, yet lack the fundamental rational skills to competently do tasks with the machine. It makes me nostalgic for DOS, before all these GUIs and other OS improvements made it easy for the Jethros of the world to take their jaloppies onto the information superhighway. On the other hand, I need them to uncover lost Atari goodness that would otherwise probably disappear into the trash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you forgot to add a BIN option, so be it...why would you end the auction with the bidding already going over your price? I'm sure what happen was he started the auction at .99 cents with no reserve and a buy it now for 225.00 but when little bobby thorton bid 1.25 on the the item the buy it now disappeared. Now what kills me is he is smart enough to edit and text edit the auction but he can't figure out how to end early.... He should go on Are you smarter than a First Grader..... THe answer here would be 'no'.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxman Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 What an idiot. If you forgot to add a BIN option, so be it...why would you end the auction with the bidding already going over your price? or end the auction early to sell to the highest bidder option.

Zwackery Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 In fairness to the seller, it does show that there was a BIN on the auction - looks like the trained monkeys running eBay's servers are too busy with their Tuesday night poop-fest.
