The hazzards of non-paying bidders

If it seems too good to be true, it probably is. When actor John Schneider sold the Dukes of Hazzard’s car for almost US$10m on eBay, he pronounced the deal as “really, really quite amazing”. But now it seems the buyer isn’t going to pay up. Schneider’s estate manager, Allen Stockman said that the actor “kind of expected it”, but that legal action is being taken against the non-paying bidder. For what it’s worth, Schneider has also left negative feedback for his NPB.

It seems that the eBay community has decided to take matters into their own hands, however, as a rash of what look like revenge negative feedbacks have appeared on the buyer’s account.

    [...] Despite the auction not having met its reserve price, this is being widely reported as a done deal, though Mr Cave told reporters he was still verifying the identity of the Italian high bidder. Lets hope this ghost town doesn’t end up with a ghost bidder. [...]
