I bought a bike on eBay the other day that has been listed a few times but never made reserve. I’d bid 525 but the end price was just over £400. I received a second chance offer and snapped it up. I asked the seller how he’d like to be paid and he said bank transfer and sent his details and I just sent it over, he delivered it to me the next day with no problems and was a really nice guy. I often just pay people for bikes I win when I’ve already asked them if they will wait a few weeks for me to collect etc, so they can get on with their lives and not be tempted to re-list. Last year I didn’t collect a bike for over 2 months due to an injury I didn’t have when I placed the bid. It works for me. Any time I get stung it’s over a sale, not a purchase.
