Surely if you list something on eBay you want to sell it??

The exact digital piano I want turned up on eBay, being sold by a shop. I contacted the seller and expressed interest, asking for courier cost. He gave me an acceptable reply. I went and clicked on Buy it now, and got this reply: 

The item you selected can't be purchased because the seller has not specified freight postage fees

I got in touch with them again, explained the problem, and got no response for 2 days. Then the listing came up as no longer available. I was pretty miffed! A week later and he has listed it again. I press Buy it now again and get:

The item you selected can't be purchased because the seller has not specified freight postage fees

I have just sent him a ??? message again. No reply all day.

~Bloody irritating! What a feckwit!

Lol, I've had great fun today trolling some bloke on eBay after a digital piano..

I'm going to sell it to him in a bit and ship a Bontempi

Amps are a pain to ship but it's doable. So many people say "contact me about shipping" in the description, then you message them to be told "UH SORRY COLLECTION ONLY". Don't offer to discuss shipping then???

It's ok.

he can't play piano.

Maybe he doesn't want to sell it, but has to be able to show his wife that it's up for sale on eBay!

"I put it up for sale, it's not MY fault it's not sold!"

Look elsewhere. Pointless trying to deal with someone with bad admin.

I'm looking for a van at the moment.  I must have messaged the sellers of at least half a dozen asking if there is any documented service history.  Not one has bothered replying.  It's not just eBay either - I asked a seller on AutoTrader where they were (it doesn't tell you on the website) - no response.

Which probably tells you there isn't.

As mentioned, he responded quickly to my first email!

Nope, he has a lot of courier detail within the listing - map showing where in the country he will deliver to, cost for the areas etc.
