Hi

I have these plenty of times over the years, Ebayers watch who have been bidding on items and then send email relating to what there selling.

I'm the same, I have had a few emails over the past few months from sellers telling me what they have for sale. Sometimes after I have missed out on a similar item, other times out of the blue. I guess, in the second instance, they are just trying to drum up business, 'cold-calling' almost.

I've never actually bought from a seller who has sent me one of those emails, not sure I'd feel so confident about buying it outside Ebay. Although, I suppose you can ask them to list it on Ebay with a buy it now price you both agree on and to tell you when they are going to list it. That way you still get the protection of Ebay.

this guy sends me emails every time he sells something and i thought i had bought something from him previously and he was giving me first offer i did think he was a bit expensive and never replied

I've had a few e-mails before but I don't mind as you might find something you really want amongst the items !!
