i put a bid in early on the same boat , then sent off an email to the jerk. no response. sent another , then another , nothing back from him.

if your going to put your boat on ebay at least answer questions.
that **** pisses me off.

I asked some friends that do a lot of ebay stuff about it. They said if someone contacted the buyer with an offer that the buyer liked. He could go back in and change the sales to a "Buy It Now" and then the party wanting the boat could place the bid immediately and there ya go. It's gone....
