I was bidding on a dress on eBay and another user mailed me to say I could get it cheaper in the sale at Debenhams at the mo! I was really grateful but are you supposed to do this?

Theres nothing anyone can do to stop it so yeah. Be more thankful because you just saved 10bucks! I had the same thing done with me, and I too was grateful and bought it for less money than it would have ever been on ebay. Use ebay for hard to find things for cheap. If its out in stores, it probably will be the same price or cheaper because of sales.! Have fun! : )

no Ebays policy dont allow this if u tell the Ebay perosn id who told u this then tah tid will be removed from Ebay
in fatc many things are cheaper in market than in ebay but at ebay the difference is coz of shipping ,mostly i feel
i am an Ebayer for 4 years now and sell and buy both
the only thing is you should know the real price and the ebay price and ofcourse the shipping cost
well if u want to do something tell ebay the ID who told u that or else just forget it

Sounds fairly life like to this point. I extremely have offered some issues that people concept were extraordinary. Chewing gum from Luis Gonzalez for $10,000, Tim Hudson's goatee trimmings for $75 (what a lot) and a Potato chip formed like my abode state of Illinois for better or less $1400 or so.

It's kind of like telling someone at a tag sale that they've priced the item way below what it's worth. It's the honest thing to do, but other people might not like you for it. It's perfectly acceptable, but I don't think the seller would be too happy.

No one should email you directly except the seller when you are the winning bidder, or you can contact the seller with questions about the auction. It is against the guidelines of Ebay, but if you are aprreciative, why would you report them?

it's a free economy,,sure why not..Ebay is cutting down on messages from other users that are not related to sales though in their new forum postings I have read.

yes its auction interference.
report that offender to ebay and notify the seller that you're bidding on that the person is email his bidders about it. he can also submit a complaint.

I think the person that did it was pretty sad to be honest. Lets say you were disabled and couldn't get out...would you have appreciated the info? No, probably not. I think these people should mind their own business! I've seen loads of things going for more than they do in shop's brand new, but I don't say anything, cos I hope that it will happen with the things I sell too.

No. I don't know what the 'mo' is.
It sounds like a fellow 'shopper' informed you of this which isn't bad but doesn't make it any more right.
Usually they are other 'sellers' wanting you to purchase from them instead. This would be so totally wrong.
