Had an auction close. Sniped in the last minute by someone with no feedback. I looked, signed up today for an e-bay account. Has bid on three auctions. All three of them are my auctions!!!
This seems really wierd to me. I wonder if I ticked someone off and they are trying to get me. I don't think I've ticked anyone off though. BTW it's an AOL addy.
Edited because I still don't get this whole UBB deal.

Hmmm It is interesting but I would just go with it treat it like anyother sale I mean if the buyer dont pay you can always file for refund and list again.
If you cant find no priors on this buyer chances are it just a new excited user testing there bidding skills.

I'm going to treat it like any other sale. Problem is, if this doesn't go through, I can't re-list until next year. It's a halloween thing.
Got a response to my EOA already. Said she's sending a money order. So, if she doesn't pay I'm out of luck. Figures, it went for about twice what I thought it would. I really wanted to do the happy dance too.
Edited because I still can't figure out the code stuff. sheesh

Could be your bidder found one of your items and decided to click on the link to view your other items and decided they liked what they saw. I always check for other auctions if they are selling something I like.

Don't borrow trouble. You have every reason to do the happy dance.
I don't know what kind of Halloween stuff you sell, probably fairly unusual, right?
I'm a big outdoor decorator for the season.
But I live in the bible belt, and pickins are slim. I think your buyer is a kindred spirit, really likes your stuff and can't find it close to home. Willing to reply ASAP and send a MO. Sounds to me like a good deal.

Well, I really only have the one item that is a halloween thing. The other two she bid on are wholly unrelated. Some glassware and some collectable figurines. (I think that's vague enough) I'd understand if they were all related in some way.
You're probably right, I'm probably just borrowing trouble. Still seems a bit odd though.
