    Sorry guys, been running non stop. I'll pull that ticket later this afternoon. Seems like we had about half the usual contestants than normal this year. Probably going to be the last contest anyway, it's just a lot of work. If I do decide to do something next time, it would be a scaled down version, since some say its too difficult to read the rules, and causes personal trauma. LOL

    That's a shame -- those people are a handful at best and they should not control us, Don't let them win! I would miss this contest--- it is too much fun!

    I don't blame the buyer. eBay does not allow such a hack. There are no holes. A way he could have won your item with free shipping was if you had multiple shipping options available. It might have been an oversight on your listing in the "shipping and payments" section

    I thought that as well but checked it out and it was not the case.

    Here is the original listing and it's replacement (which sold!): ps-- not comic books

    resold it using  relist option and got full price:

    So when I saw the order details, I was perplexed:

    I ran into something strange the other day on ebay.

    Someone made an offer that was within my threshold of acceptable bids. I did not look at it very hard other than my usual criteria (checking the feedback, how long the buyer has been around etc). I accepted their offer which SHOULD come with the calculated amount for shipping. Somehow the buyer figured out how to alter the shipping to FREE SHIPPING which made the sale a loser for me. So I cancelled it, blocked them, and ignored their complaining and questions about what happened. I am not going to tolerate that type of spoon.

    I just am not sure how they accomplished it-- typically the shipping is not part of the offer-- it just flows through. I double checked the offer numerous times and I've never offered free shipping for that item. I only noticed it when I checked the email stating the terms of the deal and was like--- no way broseph!

    Anyone have a thought on how one would circumvent the shipping charges? I don't want this happening again. Seems like some clown figured it out and advertised it as a life hack.

    watched it last night with my brother-- we were astonished with how terrible it was. Not only the acting-- the plot and the writing were all garbage. I'm not a big DC fan to begin with but this just seemed like someone pretending to know how to create a superhero movie. Sure wish I had bothered to check out the reviews on this thread before wasting my time-- though fairly early my brother and I went MST3000 mode and made fun of everything. I guess you could go that route to find something redeeming about this stinking pile of dog waste.
