Doh just made a 90.00 mistake on Ebay.

Listed an item I intended to have a 99.99 BIN put a 9.99 BIN on it by mistake. It sold.. Oh Well Live and learn. I made the mistake I am going to honor the winning price.

He has not paid for it yet, so hopefully he will not pay.. Less than 5 FB

  • Dont do it. Let the guy know about the mistake and he should be fine with it.
  • I don't believe in doing that. I made the mistake I should live up to it, if he pays I will ship it.

    What was it?

    Do the right thing. I hope he does not pay you though. What item was it?
  • It was an older comic book. I bought it in a lot of old books for 30.00 a couple of weeks ago. There is still another comic in there that could go for 1,000 when it comes back from CGC.

    Having principles and integrity is cool, but a mistake is a mistake.

    you might be surprised if you e-mail the person and explain the mistake. I did it with an ARod auto and listed it for $9.99 BIN and had a heart attack. E-mailed the buyer and he knew that I had made a mistake and said it was cool.

  • If he pays I wil ship if not Oh well will fix it on the relist. I believe as a seller it is my responsibilty to make sure my listings are correct before listing them.
  • You need to be careful with those Showcase #4s. You could get much more for them.image I think it's a classy move to send it, and there's also nothing wrong with telling him it was a mistake. Heck, most of my bookies call me back when I bet an incorrect line and cancel the play.image

  • I wish they were Showcase #4's I defintly would be very sick about it. This was an early X-men issue. The other comic is a Hulk 181. Which if you don't know is the most valuable mainstream comic out there since 1970? I believe it could grade a 9.0 or better.
  • Seriously? A Hulk 181 that is anywhere close to a 9? AND an early X-Men? You can't do it. Seriously, him taking that for 9.99 might be a felonious act...at least a tort.

  • When you list your AMS No. 1 make sure it has a BIN of 99.99 - I'll buy it right away.
    Just kidding -very classy move on your part, honoring the BIN price

    I did a quick eBay search:

    Completed auctions link

    From what you described (an early x-men comic book, 9.99 BIN, by someone with less than 5 FB), nothing is coming up .

    Perhaps I did the search wrong or missed it? X-men under comics, $9-$10, and completed..

    Thanks for your cooperation in advance.

    Maybe it was listed on Ebay China by mistake.

  • Ebay TKO'ed it last night because the high bidder was using a hijacked or fraudlent account. So I lucked out, I thought something was up when I looked at his bid history. He was bidding on everything across the board. I am assuming he was trying to harvest Emails for phising attempts later on. He is now NARU as well. So I get all listing fees and FVF fees back.
  • Good job image

    care to share his NARU'd ID?

    This thread reminds of the time I listed my house on Ebay and it ended up selling for $250.00 insted of $250,000. All because of a darn typo!

    I did honor it since I am a noble and trustworthy individual and have no flaws that I can think of. In fact I would rate myself a 10.

    Just wanted to share.
  • If it's an obvious mistake, Ebay will not hold you to it!

  • After seeing how the 5yos on here trash other sellers auctions do you honestly think I am stupid enough to post anything that can make it easy to figure out my Ebay ID? Only an IDIOT would do that.
  • Hi, Im a idiot.

    My ebay user id is 1989_fleer_bill_ripken_collector ..bet you would of never guessed. lol

    The auctions they trash are those who scam and are rude, well not just rude but I cant think of the right wording and Im at work and cant be here all day thinking of the word. Well, maybe half of the day.

    I have yet to see someone get jumped on ebay because they had a problem here. Am i right, you jerks?

    As honest as you are, it should be no big deal for you. After all, you did start the thread whose only purpose was to brag on your superior ethics.

    I would think you'd be happy to share, that is, unless you have something to hide.

    Sorry!

    Then what was the purpose of your original post?

    I call BS on the whole thing but that's just my opinion.
