| Good. They actually put pics up this time. The seller was asking $5000 buy it now and starting bid $3000. Looks like a good collection, some nice Melos and Echinos too.
Hmmm, wish I wasn't so broke right now. | |

| I didn't think they could refuse to sell, reserves were supposed to be outlawed awhile ago. How rude!!! | |

| Hang on - isn't the 'buy now' thing a 'legally binding contract'? I reckon you have grounds for recourse. Go to Ebay and shake the tree, Prickly; the apples should fall... Oh, and watertrade - your avatar's very cute now!  | |

| Prickly - They are legally bound to sell you the cactus. Contact ebay and let us know how you got on................its not fair as you won them  | |

| yep... the seller assumes all responsibilities for listing any item, by bidding you are agreeing to a legally bound contract in which you must pay for the item if you are the winning bidder and the seller must send it. | |

| So all that 'legally binding stuff' is just garbage. What about consumer affairs or the police...isn't that fraud? | |

| I hate to suggest it, but maybe some prime-time publicity will emabrrass the non-cooperating parties.
Mention of lawyers and reporters might make them shift their sorry backside.
Might... | |
