FridgeFreezer Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I spoke to a seller about this once - apparently due to the way eBay works for businesses it's cheaper/better for them to just change the price than actually stop the listing / make it out-of-stock.

OK - so NOW I understand... Thanks for that... but I wonder what happens if somebody misreads it and clicks to buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neil110 Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Drat, I was going to buy a case of it, lay it down for future consumption Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peaklander Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Yes that is interesting. I've seen it before but never realised what was going on. Presumably most listings like this will be "last one". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I guess they keep one back "just in case" someone's feeling flush and makes it worth their while. Basically I think they get stung by eBay for removing/re-listing but changing the price is free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynic-al Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 A lot of sellers do it when they're out of stock as it saves relisting it as said above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
