I've listed a voucher for a 10 person chauffeured champagne punting trip on Ebay - put it on with a starting price of £100. I stated what the normal price is for this tour and that the proceeds are to go to a charity close to my heart with a bit of info on said charity.
So, a fella messages me and offers me £80 for it. No problem with him trying but I replied that the best I could do was £100 BIN given that the cost of the tour is normally £225 and that this voucher has the added advantage of being open from now til next Spring.
Next thing I know he's responded by asking me to call him on his mobile.
Now, I know it's not to invite me out to dinner... :o I can only assume that he wants to buy away from ebay. And if he is, I'm a bit, well, unsure. I don't want to lose a potential sale of the voucher (not only is it for a good cause, it's also no use to me, I'm sh-scared of water, I hate Cambridge and I don't drink champagne!), but I don't feel comfortable about this... but I can't really think why I'm not comfortable with it.
Has anyone any experience of this sort of approach? What can go wrong?
Cheers!
