This is not a legit listing. The seller has no feedback related to bed frame etc sales. The account is probably hacked. I will personally avoid.
Thanks for sharing MellonE
In light of mixmixi's warning I don't suppose you have any experience with this seller?
It could be that they've branched out into new areas of business or - as suggested - it may be that the account has been compromised.
As usual - everyone please make sure to research thoroughly before you buy
Thanks for looking into this Kelsey . I would highly doubt if the seller has expanded their business. These beds will normally cost around £650-£850 sometimes more. The seller has put a single image of the bed frame up which normally is not the case with legit listings. The seller is selling all their bed frames for £249. The seller has mentioned 3 days sale, but it has now been over 3 days they have advertised this. The seller has mentioned 2-4 weeks for delivery which raises the suspension they are scam and trying to get away with money peacefully.
mixmixi Hi! I contacted ebay and reported the item for them to investigate. The seller was very responsive and had good feedback so I wouldn't have presumed anything was off until you have drawn my attention to it.
Plus side is- no money has left my PayPal as I cancelled the order. Anyone who has ordered this can open a claim via ebay if they don't receive the item. EBay will take action against the seller if they are a scam product. I'll wait for ebays advice before proceeding further and thank you for raising awareness that this item could be a scam.
I've ordered one. The 3 days are for the sale event not the length of time of the listing. I always pay via PayPal so I'm covered anyway. The seller has over 260 positive feedbacks. The delivery date is 24th april and they have been responsive to messages. I guess I'll just see how it pans out.
Yep EBay also has a great system of reimbursing buyers. They reimbursed me 250 last year when a seller didn't post a stereo system so I never worry too much about con sellers on eBay. They tend to be very pro buyer.
