Why oh why did my Zelda: Collector's Edition only sell for £15.30?

This always happens to me, I watch a couple of items on eBay to see how much they sell for, then when I try to sell exactly the same thing I do so for about £5 less. What a load of crap!

Half an hour before mine ended the exact same thing sold for £23.50, sealed liek mine, with a much shorter discription. It really, really f**** me off.

Bah, you stupid eBay nobs.

I never use Paypal. If I'm buying from someone, I'll ask for their account number and sort code and pay the money directly into their bank account. Never had any problems with this method before.

If I ever sell on eBay, I'll ask the same of my buyers. Paypal have messed me around in the past so I won't be using them again.

I'm convinced it is PayPal now, this item sold for £21 just after mine ended and it accepts PayPal:

£27 for Wallace & Gromit? You can get it brand new for £20 with that free DVD from GA... some shop.

Anyway, here's the page, I'm thinking part of the problem might be because I don't have a PayPal account:

Post the link to the item page Rickoss, everytime I sell games I always do well so maybe I can give you some advice.

Put it like this, I got 11.50 for Deadly skies on the dreamcast with a smashed case and no front or back cover inserts, and £27 for Wallace and Gromit on the Xbox, and £250 for Steel Battalion on Xbox.

To top it all off, Virtua Striker sold for £3.20 and I did a really crap review of Mario & Luigi, despite loving it.

Fan-f***ing-tastic.

That S in your topic title ... it was supposed to be an F, right?
Right?

*Pointing and laughing*
I would have bought it off you for more than that.
