Another Ebay Laugh

[Zerogee]

I did once ask a seller a question via the eBay "facility" what the justification was for setting a price that was so much more than could be found elsewhere (I gave them the benefit of the doubt and assumed there was something special about the item). Response? A big fat zilch. I was told by a regular eBay buyer/seller that by not responding the seller avoided my Q and their A being posted on the item listing.
..................

As I understand it, the seller can choose whether any question asked (regardless of whether they answer or not) gets shown on the listing - I've asked several questions about things and got answers, but none of it has appeared as viewable to the public. More likely, I think, that the guy just didn't have any kind of reasonable answer for it!

Jon.

Makes sense. As I see it, people are more wary these days about buying stuff on eBay that is unusually priced for no apparent reason, so it's the seller who mostly loses out if they ask some ridiculous amount as they won't shift the item.
