EBay collection only

The only surprise is that it’s been a while since last time it happened.
I’ve just sold some wheels on eBay, specified them as collection in person only. The buyer wants me to wrap them up and sit at home for a day or two waiting for a courier to come and pick them up

Had the same. Sadly I stupidly agreed to do it. Never again.

I always offer shipping on big items even if it's a PITA to encourage collection, e.g. it might be £50+ depending on what it is. Although I guess a set of wheels need to be palletised which is whole other kettle of fish.

I sold a monitor and graphics card on eBay yesterday. I took the monitor to the post office rather than entertaining collection.

Then there are those who turn up with less money and front it's that or nothing. Ta ta w'nker.
