Who says we're wasting our time Tubbs.... you've let us know what your doing so your snipe might be wasted ....

As told a mate on phone earlier.... surely the nob head as realised that "we know summat" else he'd have pulled it .... obviously not ....

Best thread ever.......f********** brilliant, i just tried to outbid that last one, but it won't go any higher

The highest bid i've ever seen on ebay was for a coffee plantation somewhere way out there....around 100 million pounds.

Shit now i'm going to have to edit mysnipe don't know if i can afford to go any higher than 100 billion. Might have to sell my copy of the snake just to secure it.

Seems to be stuck at 99,999,999.....at this rate some of the bidders might have the SFO tapping them up about possible "money laundering"....I don't know what happens next - if he withdraws it does he still have to pay ebay fees?

Just tried bidding over $100,000,000 Tubbs and it's saying "can't do".... like Brett said in an earlier post.... eBay must have a "max" limit of $99,999,999 as it wont let you do owt.... comes back saying "enter US $100,000,099.00 or more" but when you do you just get the same message ....

Ah well.... was fun whilst it lasted.... now to see if "seller" deletes all bids before he gets lumped with a hefty eBay cost .... not that he'll pay like ....

You beat me too it Steve....

If he "deletes" bids manually he'll get charged at the "high bid" rate he leaves if don't remove all.... if he ends it early I think he gets charged the "set" listing fee for what he entered it at, i.e. starting price cost, min bid cost, etc., etc., ....

Do you think you have to email the seller if your feedback rating is less than 10??

Just so he knows he can trust us like!

Only kidding Mark - besides, I think it may be a bit late for that.

Anyway, if I win it for a million it looks like there's plenty of people out there I could move it on to and make a packet

If you're around chorleybloke, now's your chance to leave him negative feedback!!

His final value fee for this transaction, if I'm not mistaken should come out to alittle over $1,500,000!!!!!

But I'm betting they wait until after trying to claim their fee before "appropriate action" is taken ....

Too right

Seriously though, I think eBay's attitude is really crap. The reply reads to me as though their main concern is that transactions don't take place outside of eBay - thus denying their income. The fact that bidders could become victims of fraud - potentially to the tune of thousands of dollars - seems to be of little consequence to the bastards.

If there wasn't so much good stuff on there I'd boycott 'em

Whatever their intended action may be, it hasn't included closing this miserable piece of scum's account yet has it?

Think it's a case of never "really reading" e-mail contents.... often think they catergorise the subject headers and then issue a pre written response .... have had what appear pre written responses that were nowt to do with initial query.... but obviously picking from their list of "subjects" determines the response you get even if "content" not addressed.... so definately "crap" like you say ....

As for action.... account not yet closed but that'll probably be the action when they don't get their fees ....

Oh man, I can´t wait to see how this story ends! Imagine getting that Paypal invoice for $100 million and then the idiot seller gets his eBay invoice - oooh sweet. This thread has certainly made work very much more enjoyable the past few days, now I´m just awaiting the grand finale. When are the media gonna catch up on this?
