If seller refuses to sell you could consider taking him/her to court but you would have to prove what you have lost.Breach of contract ?.Waste of time.Put it another way,if it were your car and you wanted £1150 for it would you let it go for less than half,NO ?.There's your answer.

That does'nt mean that this seller wo'nt sell,he may decide to cut his losses and honour the bid.He may also say,"sorry mate,do'nt know what went wrong but Ebay made a mistake and they forgot to add the reserve",or," sorry mate,sold it elsewhere,forget to cancel the ad". :smiley:

grey area is ebay when it comes to these things. unfortunately like has been said you can only leave bad feedback which some people dont even care about.

best of luck! :smiley:

Just to update.....the Guy sent me a message saying the car sold yesterday and he could not end the auction early !! He then sent me a Transaction Cancellation notice which I refused. I am not going to get this car for the winning bid I thinks......

However.....I have found another not too far from me within my budget. Needs a few jobs doing to bring it back to required standard but that's the fun I guess. This seller has a Guy who is supposed to be ringing him tonight who so far has not called. If he don't call I will nip down tomorrow and do the deal. Fingers crossed time now   :drool:

How ??   The guy with the first one (which I won the bidding on) has a unit where the car will be stored so will not know if it's gone or not.

Well another update.....I have now given up on the first Anni. However, I have just done a deal to buy the second one at the same price. Picking that up tonight if all goes well and will post some pics as soon as possible.  :smug:

Well went down to have a look last night. Took the missus's 206 which developed an electrical fault en route (french sh!te). Eventually arrived at the place and there was an Anni parked up looking sad for itself !!!!  Had a look round....sills are solid, floor is solid, no rust in usual places, good condition inside and out really and drove quite well. Done a fault code scan and the hall sender came up.
Anyway done the deal and drove the car home as sweet as a nut (27 miles) whilst the missus and the 206 got recovered home  :evil:

So now I am the proud owner of an Anni after a while of trying toget one. Wants a lot of work to get it looking good including taking all the bolt off tat off it !!!!  Looks like a busy weekend for me  :smiley:

So because I did not get home till 12:30 I have no pics but here is a link to the original ad......
