I'm selling off lots of baby clothes. I'm not a newby to ebay I do this quite a lot. Normally I don't agree to buy it now because I enjoy the auction but this one is tempting - she is offering £20 for a pair of John Lewis dungarees. The bidding is currently at £12.50 with two days to run. Frankly I'm surprised they are so popular, I don't think I spent £20 on them!

She says she can't join the bidding because she has two unpaid item disputes because she refused to pay the unreasonable shipping costs. Red flag, I know...but I'm so tempted. WWYD?

Avoid cos 1. It sounds like they will go for a good price (I know baby clothes can be a bit hit and miss) 2. The dispute issue sends me red flags too

Don't do it - you don't want to be missing about with it for ages! I had this with a bike I sold at the weekend - this guy offered £20 - it sold for £45! I'm so glad I didn't!

I agree with the red flags - refuse to pay unreasonable shipping costs makes me think why did she bid in the first place?

Thanks, reinforced resolve Grin I'll tell her no and sorry.
