Hi Guys
Anyone else noticed that when you receive an offer on an item it includes the BPF already? Yet when you send an offer it doesnt
I have just received an offer on an item which I accepted not realising this and have now sold an item for half its value.
I understand my mistake and will eat the difference due to my own incompetence, but wonder if this is all part of ebays plan to rid the site of casual sellers like myself. Surely a company the size of ebay should be able to show the actual price the buyer wants to buy without including BPF in the message they send you, when you receive an offer
Example - Item listed @ £2.50
Offer received - £2.00
Happy with that as it is a 20% discount and would be ok with it, but with BPF I get
Item listed @ £2.50 plus £0.82 BPF Total £3.32
Offer received £2.00
Ok so far, but when accepting the offer the BPF is taken away leaving £1.23 for an item originally listed @ £2.50.
Email sent to me by ebay, shows that I have a new offer for £2.00 on the item, not £1.23 which is what I ended up with.
