As I said before I do this only very infrequently and yes its a risk, (i have a feedback score of 10% and close to the 200 mark) and usually its COC only. Lets be honest as well Ebay fees and paypal fees are starting to get a bit on the high side....

You dont completely avoid fees as you still pay your listing fees.  I can honestly say that as a seller & buyer with a feedback score of 100% from 850 transactions I've never been ripped off & obviously never diddled anyone else either - as others have said buyer beware & also seller beware - Ebay has its rules but as all offers  are made via Ebays own messaging system, they are aware of buying & selling going on outside of the online auction.

Trying to flog something you bought in error is one thing, but hoping to make a big profit???

Oh come on - thats capitalism. Don't tell me you wouldn't do the same if you could....17

If anyone is stupid enough to pay that amount without doing any research, they deserve it...

In view of the blatant lie I think the word is "fraud"...  (So I hope that I wouldn't do the same 17)

Looking on the bright side, at least anyone who gets stung like this is unlikely to be competing for campsite space for long..................

Not a wise buy for anyone in my opinion. It compares with the Jesolo tents which are absolutely garbage. Went through 2 of them in one week a couple of years back. I just hope the buyer gets a good look at it before parting with cash. (if it sells that is)

Also have a look at the guylines. Not enough for a tent of that size. First heavy wind and the tent would be wrecked.
