You really don't want me to win lol

I'm just hoping that I can win it :mad:

That's ridiculous, why would it matter to me if you won it? That iPhone is of no interest to me as I have one already.

I am simply trying to do you a favour by showing you that you are being unrealistic in your belief that you are the only person interested in it and that you will be able to get it for no more than £300.

I wish you luck in the auction, but prepare for the distinct possibility that you won't win it.
 
The reason I am so sure that I WILL WIN IT is because its still below the £300 mark... and its been viewed 670 times....

and the ones you linked to me previously which got sold for £400+ has had only 200 views..

Which means if no-one is bidding on it now then they're aren't interested and I assume its because of the new iphone.
 
This thread (which you created) proclaims iPhone 3GS 32GB cheap on eBay so people are bound to take a look.

The thread alone has had over 1,400 views. Has it not occurred to you that you may have inadvertently generated an artificially high number of views of the item on eBay from people curious to know what you are talking about?

Furthermore, the fact that no-one is bidding at the moment does not mean that people are not interested.

This forum is full of people with 3gs already so I doubt anyone from here will bid but will give me advice, can you give me tips to win it?

and I still think no-one is interested stil......
 
I'm going to win it at £300...

It's @ £255 right now and no-one has bidded for days so its only me whos interested in that auction.
 
your joking right?.. We dont care wether you win or lose.. people here are smart and experianced with ebay..you are NEW to ebay as you say...i have sold 4 iphones and and ipad on ebay..the price really jumps high at the last 3 min and or 30 seconds of the action 100% of the timt e when your dealing with products like this.. so with there being six days left and 3 bids i can assure that it will go up past your "dream" price
 
if no-one knows about it, no-one can buy it...

I know they don't know about it because no-one has bidded on it, I will bid £300.01 on the last 30 seconds.

Either pumping his own auction, or troll. /ignore
 
I'm not bored i'm just watching that ebay link 24/7 to monitor the outcome its @ 700 views now and no bids :D

Everything is going to plan.
 
I am not trollin but please if you are not helping me then please don't spam my thread as I really want this phone to put 4.0 on!!!
 
I think he is messing with us guys.

clearly he is deluded or he is a 11 year old kid messing with us.
 
I'm 18 actually..

I am not messing with you guys, I seriously wanted help to find a cheap iphone 3GS 16GB or 32GB (Preferred)

Can someone explain ebay and give me some pointers, strategies to win an auction to me because obviously i've been taking it the wrong approach because everyone on this thread is telling me i'm dreaming...

if you read the last 3 pages you have been given plenty of advice.

the only way you are going to win is to bid on it until you actually win. It is likely to end up around £400 so you will just have to prepare yourself.

and you are dreaming if you think it will go for £300
 
The amount of people who tell me they got a bargain on ebay so I doubt they are all lying, you must understand my logic..

I've been watching it since it went up and no-one has bidded on it and something i'm 100% sure on is that iphones in general will be dramatically dropping in price when 4g/hd is out (which is soon)

Sorry to the guys who I frustrated but i'm new to ebay and still learning the ropes.
 
are you special needs? serious question.

just trying to figure out how you aren't getting it still.
 
I am actually..

Thanks for being rude instead of helping.

wasnt being rude it was a serious question.

just read through the last 3 pages again, all the advice is there!

edit: apologies if i caused any offence.
 
nlr, if you aren't a troll here is a serious answer:

It's quiet now but the auction will go berserk on the last day, the phone will go up to 400 pounds, at least. Don't even count on it finishing at 300 pounds, not a chance, even with the new iPhone releasing.
 
I understand that it COULD go beserk but if no-one knows about it what are the chances?
