Just bid on a s/h camera lens, pitched my max 30% less than the BIN for a new lens from a retailer - which would have a warranty, DSR etc.
I got outbid to 1p over the price for the latter.
Am I missing something or is the world full of tubes?

Yes, and they lose Ebay auctions by a penny 🙂
eBay seems to attract a special, extra-annoying variety of selfish idiot, doesn't it?
One of them just cost me almost £20 in listing fees after they bought an expensive item and then changed their mind. Because the customer is always right, and because I'm a nice, fair-minded chap, I refunded him, which leaves me out of pocket and seething quietly. Once I've shifted these bits of kit I think I'll stick to buying cheap tat off of there and leave the selling to other mugs.
[Edit] On the wild off-chance, what lens? I'm flogging camera kit you see...
Uh can't you cancel the transaction and get the fees back?Panasonic micro 4/3 14-42 zoom.
oh and allthepies I got outbid by 30%
Tube? Since when did tube become and insult? Is this fallout from that bloody stupid moron on the TV cop show that claims everyone's a "valve"?
Dear god, and from you cynic - I expected more! 😯
Must be showing my age/origin..it was just the insult in 70s NI.
Someone is prepared to pay 1p more than you are for a s/h item still less than rrp.why does it make then a tube?
A tube is the person who bought my s/h rear mech for more than it cost new. 😕 Bizarre
oh and allthepies I got outbid by 30%
By my reckoning you were outbid by 43%.
