ending an ebay auction before time
hello,
I would like to know if anybody can give me a word of advice for some situation I am experiencing..
I am buying a pair of shoes from this guy in the states, and I have made him an offer so he ends the auction before time.
he agreed to do so and asked me to deposit the money in a paypal account (the e-mail adress is similar to the one he used in the auction for nickname)...
what I want to know, is this safe thing to do? I received an answer on my gmail but not on my ebay msg folder, and this would be the very first time i do a thing like this. any advice on the topic/
auction ends on sunday, so we have some time and I will be grateful to read.
regards
marco |

Does the seller offer the "Buy It Now" option? If so, then the ending of the auction before the said time is normal. Also, you might want to take a look at the feedback the seller has received from other buyers and/or sellers. (Not everyone has 100% positive feedback, especially if they've sold lots of things but that can give you a clearer picture.)
If it looks good then it should be fine; I've used Ebay & Paypal many times. Just save any e-mails, etc. Do you mind posting the link?
