What is a classified add on eBay?

SELLING ON EBAY/ UK / RIPPED OFF / DOWN MONEY / WHAT TO DO / IVE GOT PHONE NUMBER AND EMAIL?

  • Hi all i have recently been selling on eBay for other people and have had an incident that has occurred in the last week. I had a man phone me saying he wanted some cars put on there and said he would pay me for each car i list regardless the outcome off the add. I said that wouldn't be a problem so we decided to start off with one car to see how it goes and he said he would give me more to do in the future if he is happy ect. anyways to top the story off i listed a car and he said he would send me a postal order for the insertion fee for the classified add and my fee (total 45 pounds) and hasn't contacted me since. its been about a week now and I have text him a couple of times and emailed him but he seems to be ignoring me. I am 15 pounds down from the insertion fee. I don't really see the motive behind it as all he has really got is free advertising until i decide to take the classified ad of eBay. as the add is a classified one the people contact him directly so i don't deal with any money ect. has anyone got any advice what they would do in this situation or is there anyone i could report this bloke to bear in mind I am UK based, All i have is the email address and mobile phone number. cheers

  • Answer:

    If there's nothing on paper between you, and as it's for such a small amount that it wouldn't even be worth going to small claims for, I don't know but I guess Ebay wouldn't want you to broker classifieds (that's their revenue stream anyway). I think you'll just have to file it under miscellaneous expenses and get an email confirmation before putting the ad up. (check vs. Ebays T&Cs though).
