I've only been an Ebay seller once or twice, but buy often.  I found advertising on Craigslist or Kijiji to be much better.  Do you have similar online classifieds in Scotland?

There's Gumtree, but I've never used it.

I've bought and sold locally via Gumtree over the years without any issues. It was better before ebay bought it as it seems to have become far more commercial and business oriented that the plain old "Joe has TV for sale" type site that it used to be, but it's free to advertise, so nothing to lose.......

Craigslist has become a wasteland, the scam phishing replies were all one got
 
I thought there was a way you could make a ebay auction private or some such to weed out the scum

 
Regarding this van of which you speak .....
 
 
 
 
.... would you describe it as both "inhabitable" and "situate adjacent to a river"?

It's the correct usage old bean as 'situate' can be used in legal documents instead of 'situated'.
 
Flowery maybe, but grammatically correct all the same.

 
 
And stop being such a pedan

Yes, grasshoppe.
 

I remember when this thread first started it was an excellent resource for learning about negative bidding on ebay and everything else, but just a couple of posts later it had been infested with weirdos and criminals and then people started getting pedan and whatnot.

Hello sir, 
 
Are you lost ? Would you like someone to escort you back to "reality" ?
