Title: Mining Machines on eBay
Post by: rsilva45 on January 23, 2014, 09:12:15 PM
I've been running an auction on eBay for my cointerra 2TH/s preorder, and was super excited up until it ended and the winnning bidder paid me with a STOLEN paypal account. Mind you, this was AFTER I had 2-3 people try to fast talk me into 'doing business' outside of eBay.

So that's 5 days of anticipation built up for nothing. Have any of you sold rigs etc on eBay before, and did you have just as much trouble as me?  ???

I managed to sell two BFL jalapenos no problem. Check your selling thing there's normally a "second chance offer" thing you can click. When the highest bidder screws you around you can offer it to the guy below him

Yeah, there is.. I'm just waiting for the dispute to be closed, don't want any more problems w/Paypal.

Have you ever sold pre-orders before?

Never sold a pre-order no. I had the jallies in hand. After using them to mine for a fortnight I could tell I wasn't going to make my money back on them so sold them on, for profit :'D

That isn't a surprise at all. eBay is scammer heaven. So is paypal. Hand in glove.

Sorry to hear about that. You should be covered by PayPal seller protection if you followed all the guidelines.

I'd be interested. Depends on order queue and price premium that you want.

Hey,

It's still available and I sent you a PM with my phone number and skype. It ships in early February.
