0 Feedback + My mistakes

[rac3r]

I've got my dad's car on ebay and the first 3 bidders have 0 feedback, is there anything I can do?

Anyone else had this?

The auction still has another 6 days and the bidders have joined about a month ago but have no feedback or anything

I always put on the auction in nice big fat writing, "If you have less than 10 feedback, please contact me before placing a bid or it will be removed".

You can remove someone's bid on your auction I think? Anyway, if you can't, email them and ask for phone numbers so you can check they're serious and not wasting your time.

I fucking hate ebay when people do stuff like that, fair enough, they might be legit buyers but it doesn't look good.

Delete their bids if you think they're not genuine. But why do you think someone would be making fake accounts to bid on your dads car, have you pissed someone on eBay off?

A normal bidder is winning at the moment with 10 watchers

change your settings to not allow bids from people with less than X feedback

I wouldn't worry too much. I think there's a lot of hysteria about zero feedbackers myself.

Guy that bought my bike last week only had 4 feedbacks and I had no problems at all.

Some dude with 1 feedback won and I haven't heard anything since. I sent about 3 messages. So I have sent one of those cancellation things and re-listed the item

I wouldn't worry about people with 0 feedback bidding on it.
I'd only consider giving it a thought if they won the auction.
Until then let them bid the price up

This is taking the piss now! Twice the auction has finished with bidders who don't respond and this is third time I've re-listed and have already had 2 dud bidders bid like 10 times! this time I've just deleted their bids and blocked them.

One weird thing was the bids went like this:

0 bidder - Bid time 00:58
0 bidder - Bid time 00:58
0 bidder - Bid time 00:58
Proper bidder - bid time 15:43
0 bidder - Bid time 00:58
0 bidder - Bid time 00:58

It is annoying when you get messed about on ebay. The sad thing is that this is all part of the ebay experience I'm afraid.

The zero feedback bidders thing:
I never know what to do either. The thing is, buying a large item like a car or motorbike is just the sort thing someone who has never used ebay before may sign up for.
I usually get them to contact me if they are bidding with low feedback. Most of the major items I've sold on ebay have been to 0 feed back users and luckily most of them have been geniuine people.
