Ok, I listed my LV MC Speedy last week. I had it on a regular auction WITH a reserve. Well, the reserve was not met and it did not sell. No biggy, I was on the fence about selling it, so that should be the end of the story right? .... NOOOOO...
This afternoon I was just browsing Ebay because I was looking for some "Santa" things for the kids. I check my email because I am selling a Bose sound system and get a question on it. I look and there is this message saying "I won the LV multi purse from you and I have been waiting on payment instructions so I can pay you. Can you respond?"
So, I am sitting here going thinking "what in the world?" So, I look and I do see that this person was the high bidder on the auction when it closed. They think they won this purse. So, just to be sure I was not completely losing my mind I go back and pull up the auction and sure as the world it says:
Unfortunately, your item did not sell. (To list this item again, click the "Relist" button).
Bids were placed, but the reserve price was not met.
So, I sit there for a minute and respond, I am sorry this purse did not sell because the reserve was not met. I then get an email back from them saying "I did too buy this, I was the highest bidder, you need to go and see. Are you trying to get out of selling this to me?" So, still being as nice as I can be, I send them another email and I try and explain reserve auctions and also tell them to look at their My Ebay page to see that it does not show it on auctions won rather than in the section of not won and the reason why. They then email me back and say they are reporting me to Ebay for not selling to me. I am still sitting here thinking omg.. what in the world. How can someone be so confused. They almost had me confused too! Sad thing is and what I do not understand is they do have all positive feedback too. Heck, I bet this poor soul was jumping up and down thinking they got a Vuitton MC Speedy for a heckuva bargain...
