a wardrobe I am bidding on says collection only but has £50 next to it.

If I am collecting it surlery I would not have to pay to collect it?

I only have 30 mins till the end off bidding

Can you contact the seller for clarification?

yes I think I would understand that means they will charge you £50 to collect(!). Unless the seller has made a mistake - ask them.

It sounds like an error. I think that charging you to collect would be seen by ebay as an attempt to avoid fees.

I have seen many sellers charge for collection - so clarify with the seller before you bid.
