anyone know of a deputy service - for ebay?

Post by buma »

yes, you heard right.

I am looking for a deputy service for pruchases off of ebay - someplace that will act like and in-between between the actual buyer and the seller. I have a friend who is sort of has a 'thing' against both PayPal and Ebay, so I have been bidding on items by proxy, as such the case is.

I'm just looking for an easier way for this person to bid other than thru me - not that I mind, but to make it easier for them to bid themselves. Does anyone have any idea of a deputy-like service for ebay?

there are a lot of 'sniper' sites, but they don't seem to do much else other than 'auto-bid' for you. Looking for one to place a bid, take payments (via CC or check or MO) and such.

I know it sounds strange, but any and all help is appreciated!

3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

I know there are deputy sites that help people from other country buy stuff from ebay, but I don't know if they'll do the same for people already in the US. Their ebay ID escapes me right now....

that might work - can't hurt to ask... If you do find them, let me know!

Anyone else have any ideas?
