to judge my ebay buyers by their previous purchases

Should I let my very nice patio set go to buyers who have previously purchased fetish outfits and S&M materials - more importantly how can I keep a straight face when they come to collectBlush? Am I the only one who judges pictures the buyers before they arrive based on previous purchases?

Blush hope people don't do that with things I sell & buy (Ann Summers rep) minds out of gutter please.... but I imagine mine would raise bloodpresure a few eyebrows.

No thongs :) and not what I expected! It's always the quiet ones... but somehow that just makes it worse - sort of like if you caught your parents at it!

He he-I'm the same! I won't buy stuff from people if I don't like their duvet cover if they've taken a photo of whatever they're selling on the bed!!

I've heard that some sellers do a Google street view of the address of their buyer (before they've paid!!) and start to panic they won't get paid if there's fridges etc growing in the garden Shock

lololizzy - you would not believe how many PVC outfits I have sold but I def don't google map my buyers that is v v strange.

lololizzy · 29/04/2012 22:42

i don't google but I have sometimes looked at their photo on facebook because I'm a nosey cow

Emma1098 · 30/04/2012 10:51

lololizzy - that's cheating! the fun is trying to work out what they are like based on purchases and seeing how close you get!

I sold a vintage silver cross pram on eBay once. The woman who bought it was almost certainly planning to use it to push around her lifelike toy babies, going by her other purchases and sales. I was a bit disappointed TBH as it was in beautiful condition & I had hoped another real baby would be riding in it.

Emma...i try to form an idea of them in my head (lookswise) then see if I am right...usually am!

Emma1098 · 30/04/2012 20:44

you must be better than me - I'm new to the game and hopeless so far!
