Sold my TV on Ebay...almost

[Carlsberg19]

Here was my dilemma:

About a week ago i decided to sell my TV, so i checked online and found a guy who buys and sells stuff online for you (he was based in my town) so i thought this would be a better option than me selling it because basically i wouldn't know where to start when selling on Ebay plus the whole thing about packaging etc..i didn't have a clue, so thought i would get this guy to sell it for me and he would take care of all that..

So he asked would i prefer to put it on ebay for a reserve price ( i said i would like €500 for it ) or i could also put it on a 99 cent starting price and let people bid for it..i chose the latter

Anywho the bidding ended on Sunday night..what did it sell for?...€360..after his fees i got €220..

€220 for a 42'' HD TV, i had none of it and said their is no way in hell im selling my TV for €220. This is where the problem started, he said that he was legally bound to sell this TV to the highest bidder, now im a total Ebay novice and i am not with it in terms of contracts etc but all i knew was i am not selling it for €220

So after a heated discussion on the phone with him, he was saying he was going to get negative feedback and what was he going to tell the buyer etc.

Just today i got an offer for €500 for the TV from somebody else and i am going to sell it to this person, i just thought i would share this rant with you guys, never again am i selling anything on Ebay!
