Because the box was grossly underpriced..by a $1000

I got a message from the seller thanking me for helping him sell it... he sold it cash to a memeber of the Reyes Accordion forum and raised the price to ensure a no sale and avoid e bay fees

I am still waiting for an apology an an explanation

I still believe that the box was left there to hope for a realist and higher same price.

No matter..... I'll never do that again

Hmm, raising the price on eBay was actually a bad idea -- he should have cancelled the sale. If someone actually bid up to that price, he could find himself in big trouble! (eBay fees, not to mention trouble with any bidders).

foul play on several levels

selling off e bay before the sale was over

raising the price

avoiding payment to e bay

facing the possibility of a serious bid on a box that is sold


bad form

It has the making of a great hypothetical question for my contracts study group!

Ethics and LAW ? when did that come about ?

The sellers antics were clumsy and transparent and the INTENT was to defraud....
