or avoid you after winning? It's like they're bidding just for the heck of it. It's really frustrating
I agree! I get those a lot too, it's annoying when you tell them they've won the auction but never bother to respond.
Same with those that refuse to sell the site when you win the auction because they dont get as much as they wanted. Why people have a no reserve auction then refuse to sell it when the auction ends is beyond me. This forum is going down hill rapidly and is fast becoming a place NOT to buy sites. I have won 2 auctions where the buyer didnt sell because they wanted more, and won another auction for a complete site where the seller tried to sell me the content extra to the auction, even though the site was listed in 'sites' and not 'domains' See my sig for an example.
