There was a garden tool advertised on eBay as "new, other", so open box and possibly no way to activate warranty. However it was started at £60 against a list price abot 3X higher. The other downside for me was a P&P of over £20 when others are suggesting closer to £6 (and that what I paid on a lawnmower a few weeks back).
I put in a bid and was not surprised when it was bested, but kept my eye on it, with a view to possibly increasing my bid. However, the bidding went to £90, which is more than I'd pay, under the circumstances.
It has just completed - at a final price of over £130!!!
So, adding on the postage, that's the best part of £135 for something that you could pck up from Wickes or Screwfixfor £160, brand new and guaranteed.
Are bidders just stupid?
