..would someone explain this to me;;; i think i just stumbled on my senility....[and i "aint" fussing about the money..i already been paid.]]]]
Reference:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3765805660

[1] from my bid history page, i read this:::: "Only actual bids (not automatic bids generated up to a bidder's maximum) are shown. Automatic bids may be placed days or hours before a listing ends. Learn more about bidding."

[2] winning bid $504.99[18:48pst] posted before the only other bid of $499.99[18.59pst] was posted - i guess i am wondering why the lesser bid even posted, if larger bid already in system....IS THIS CAUSED BY BIDS NOT POSTED????

[3] this is a "minimum bid" auction..opening minimum bid is $399.99, not $499.99..WHAT HAPPENED TO BIDDER RESPONSIBLE FOR INITIAL BID????

initial bidder's highest proxy was $499. second bidder's proxy was the winning bid.

by the way....how DO you ship that big stuff?

all the things I see on ebay from individuals won't ship. companies will.

I want something like:

glas:
looked at the auctn - thats a lot of furniture to ship..i would guess that seller hopes bidder will come get it..i would guess also that craters would probably charge a lot to ship the pieces.

you asked "how i ship large pieces;" i ship nothing[i dont even buy it] if it wont ship ups...

so you just box the chairs up 2X2 and ship them?

Well I don't really want a complete set like that. What I want is the 3 piece sectional sofa.

hi glas:
yep, that is basically how i ship a chair..as example, a carton 21 x 24 x 40 is ups max, before it goes to "oversize" and price doubles approx...

something like your interest would have to be shipped truck i presume...
