I keep getting weirdy offers for my stuff on ebay...

[FrightAttendant]

Ok I have this pushchair on at the mo, BIN or best offer at £225. (expecting to get about 185 or so)
The other day someone offered £50. I mean, ??? and then just now, Ok a reasonable offer, but still weird, of £158.01.! ?

I am puzzled! Has this happened to anyone else?

the 01pence will be might be about being the highest bid. £50 cheeky

My DH does offers of £x.04 etc. It is just a way to be the higher bidder, without having to add too much.

I don't think there's anything wrong with putting in a low offer. If no one else bids, you might end up accepting it.

They'll have put in the swipe thing when you type in the highest bid you prepared to go and it bids and swipes it for you. When u put in highest offer always better to put a number over the sum you thing like 1p over 5.00 would snipe it off a 5.00 bid.

to be honest would be mad to put a really high bid in straight away, it's an auction, the idea is to bid up.

I think people bid on ebay to get a real bargain, I only bid on things if they are much cheaper than I could get them somewhere else.

I have a lucky numbers thing for bidding. Always end with 8p. Hey, I am allowed to be random.

Thanks ladies, just to say it is a buy-it-now or best offer, not bidding just offers. That's why the 01p seemed so odd!
