A quick non-menswear eBay question for the group.
I made a $40 offer on a baseball glove that was listed at $65 OBO Free Shipping.
Offer was accepted and I was invoiced $40 + $10.50 shipping.
I just went ahead and paid it, because I was willing to go to $50 on my offers, but I felt a little scammed. As the potential buyer it was my understanding that I can’t add in terms such as “free shipping” in the notes section of my offer. So I thought that my offer of $40 was understood to include all other terms of the original listing.
Did I mess up by not specifying “free shipping” in my offer?
If the listing had free shipping, the seller should not be charging you shipping on top of your offer price. I would contact them. If they don’t respond, call EBay. This is a violation of Ebay’s Terms of service.
