eBay UK: Cheap DragonBoxes!

Post by Paradox295 » Sun Dec 15, 2013 5:24 pm

Not sure if it's ok to post here, but I know other people have done.

I'm selling my DragonBoxes. 1 and 3 have a low, low start price of £49.99, while the much rarer Volume 2 has a low (compared to other outlets) start price of £124.99.

Volume 1: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111239191415
Volume 2: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111239195419
Volume 3: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111239197021

This could be your last chance to get your hands on the DragonBoxes. Even more so if you live in the UK.

Volume 1 and 3 didn't sell, and while Volume 2 did, the buyer changed his mind.

So I'm relisting with lower start prices and a buy it now option.

Dragon Box Volume 1
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111243331798
Start Price: £39.99 | Buy it Now: £74.99

Dragon Box Volume 2
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111243912805
Start Price: £99.99 | Buy it Now: £199.99

Dragon Box Volume 3
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111243331987
Start Price: £39.99 | Buy it Now: £59.99

They all end on January 1st, 2014

Are they allowed to do that? I was under the impression a buyer can't back out once they bidded or committed to buy.

The problem with the Dragon Boxes Z that you're selling is simply the price and so people are avoiding it for being too high, although, now they're much more acceptable so I'm sure there'll be buyers.

You could also sell them on Amazon.co.uk.

Dragonbox Z1 - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dragon-Ball-Box ... 891&sr=8-1
Dragonbox Z2 - http://www.amazon.co.uk/DragonBall-Drag ... 002&sr=8-9
Dragonbox Z3 - http://www.amazon.co.uk/DragonBall-Drag ... 038&sr=8-5

You set the price you want, Amazon gets their cut of it and lastly how much you'd make if sold. That's all.

That's what I assumed. I've never been in this situation before, but it was literally just clicking "cancel", and if the buyer accepts the cancellation, I get my listing fees refunded.

They were all a lower start price than they are on those amazon links, so I don't think the prices were too high. More owing to the fact that I listed it a week before christmas, and people are skint from buying others presents, so can't afford to buy something expensive for themselves. Since these end on Jan 1st, it's the perfect time to list, cos people will have money out of Xmas cards from relatives they wanna spend, haha.

I'd prefer to list on eBay, cos I feel with Amazon, I'd be waiting a while for a buyer. With eBay, it creates the idea in people's minds that they have to buy it NOW, otherwise the auction will run out, and they won't have the chance to buy it again.

(That's not to say that you will have the chance again. Who knows? Buy it, buy it, buy it.)

Bumping because these end in 2 hours. Still pretty low prices and I can ship to the US and Canada, too, so don't miss out.
