I think the diluted colours of the warbird and rocker, spoils the overall design. Good compsition for all 6 boards though.

SAME thing happened to me on every other board. The SAME guy bought all of the boards.
Looks like we were right LIER about the dodgy bidding on all the boards, just got a message from the seller saying he's been scammed by the buyer, and also saying of the 7 feedbacks the buyer had 5 were negative and he's ripped all them off too.
I feel really sorry for the guy because he seemed really genuine, but he should have been more wary of someone with 7 feedbacks.

Thats how he won them all, he was waiting till the last few seconds then putting a ridiculously high bid in that would beat ours no doubt.

WOW. The seller told me he paid for 2 of the boards. Wonder if he will put them back up or give them to the next higher bidder. I emailed him.

Yes thats why he messaged me to say when he's sorted everything out he'll be putting what he hasn't already sent back up for sale, I'm pretty gutted myself now because i was the second highest bidder on the Furies board.

It all went wrong for me from the start bidding on these boards, because of the time difference over here these weren't finishing till 4:30AM so the first 2 i fell asleep at about 4AM and woke up too late, then the second 2 i set my alarm for, woke up too late again to realise i'd set my alarm for 4:30PM :roll: . Then i get scammed out of the last 2.

So the 1st two were the ROGUES and PUNKS. So the following should go back uo:

TURNBULL ACS
RIFFS
WARRIORS
BASEBALL FURIES

I was high bidder on the TURNBULL (and 1st 2 also) and I am going full force on them except the FURIES.

From what i gathered in the message the seller sent me, it sounded as though he'd already sent the TURNBULL and RIFFS boards to the scammer aswell because he said the scammer had not recieved those 2 yet.

I was expecting this to start with. I think a lot of sellers do this, some are so blatant it's laughable.
A while back i put a bid on a DVD, there must have been 20 copies of the same DVD up for sale at the time all 99p starting bid, no bids on any. So i put my bid in and checked back 20 minutes later to find the one i'd bid on had 2 more bids on it, but none of the others.

I sent the seller a message slating him, he sent me one back saying "So what! everyone does it"

He told me the buyer denied the shipment of those two, so he should have them back by Friday. I really wish he would just give it to the next highest bidder. This way you and I would get one.

eBay's use of "send Second Chance offer" is perfect for this

I've used it both as a buyer and seller

Have you mentioned it specifically to the seller?

I just recieved a message from the seller asking me if i still wanted the board i was the next highest bidder on :D . Did you get the same LIER?

turnbull, i feel you got conned. i think it was the seller who outbid you just to go over your max bid, because he knew people would put high bids to win. you prob could wait until these are relisted again and win them fir half or just message him to get a better deal. this whole auction was shadier than the side of the empire state building

I don't think that was the case with this seller, i've talked to him and checked his usual Ebay dealings out, he deals in Bmx's and seems pretty legit. If someone is trying to bump the prices of their auctions they don't put a bid in at the very last second that beats everybody.
