Good point. All second offers sould arrive and be listed on your list of "eBay messages" on your "My eBay" section, not just a private email, otherwise they can be considered false.

It's happened to me on numerous occasions..

yea i got one tonight from boat i was bidding on...you can tell its bs

Thank you for your message, Leslie

I have to figure out reading the other responses, how it exactly works. But from them I undertand that this happens more often...
Is it this seller or is it others trying to cheat, then?

there are emails circulating to "update" your info for ebay as well as a seperate one for paypal, so beware also.
