eBay "Want It Now"

[Racer 1966]

Anyone ever use the Want it Now forum on eBay? I posted for an Item I can't find here locally and no listing on eBay for it. I got 3 responses in the first day. One is an awesome deal but the messages come in as an "Anonymous User". I don't like that, just wondering if that's the way they all are?

If anyone has exeprience with this please share, Thanks!

I'd be leary if they were offering to sell you the item off of ebay. If they are legit, they won't mind setting up an auction.

Yeah, I wouldn't buy it if it's not through eBay properly, they offered to list it for me.

I just don't understand why the seller I.D. and feedback isn't revealed

It could be that they chose to offer it anonymously... Why, I'm not sure.

Maybe you have to agree to get the seller's info. I never knew that feature was around.

Did you ask the person the person that made the offer to let you see his/her user name and feedback?

I'm with troll boy, I never knew that was there.

Make sure it's NOT outside of Ebay. They might be 'trolling' for suckers.

I have done it and the offers I have received are legit auctions on EBAY. Now anything else outside I would not do it.

I've been selling a lot of stuff lately on the bay, some expensive studio recording equipment and pro audio mixers and synthesizers. I've sold two or maybe three items to people using the anonymous user thing, and everything has worked out fine. I was kinda weary too but since I was the seller I made sure everything was right before shipping, and everything worked out great. I'm not sure why they do that though.

Well the seller listed the item, good pics and 100% pos. feedback. New this item is almost $600, he's selling me a good used one for $50 shipped. I bought it so if he sends it, it will be great deal.
