[#6555632]

Morning, managed to win some 29er wheels for the princely sun of 99p on everyone's favourite auction site. Problem is I've had no contact from seller as he most probably doesn't want to let them go for 99p.
Although its a binding sale and all that I assume (short of leaving neg feedback or slap on wrists from ebay) there's nothing I can do to get a complete sale and collect?
Perhaps ebay should include a ' send the lads round for forced collection' button!
Cheers

If eBay chase him I imagine the seller would have an accident and the wheels would break or something.

My spidey senses are telling me the wheels have just been in an accident.

you might get lucky, I've sold some things for peanuts before, buyer turned up to collect and seemed embarrassed handing over the money, but it's the risk you run with ebay.

I've sold stuff for peanuts too, and people have sent more money than the final eBay price. None of it was 99p cheap though.

Or you may just have bought a photograph of some 29er wheels

For 99p, is still something of a bargain.
