Yeah I bet he hasn't sold it.Just don't want to sell it that cheap.
I won a set of alloys once for £60 (proper bargain)
Got a message the next day to say that the rims had been stolen out of his garage overnight.
2 weeks later they were back in ebay from same seller,went for £180 second time.

so why does a no reserve auction start at the reserve price, like a 2004 focus zetec starting bid £1500 you shouldnt be able to say no reserve when there clearly is, no reserve means no reserve, if you take your car to BCA no reserve means it sells for whatever it makes,

Had the same happen to me, won a bucket seat and harness for £13 told me they were stolen the night before I was suppose to collect. Won a rad for 99p no reserve, but his dad had taken it to the tip....... yeah yeah ok. I reported the one with the bucket seat, I bet nothing happened.

Because they get an additional charge from eBay to use a reserve, they hope that it sells for a decent price but when it doesn't they resort to underhand tactics to cancel the sale. EBay is full of arseholes now.

I sold a complete mk2 Granada GL interior for 99p, i was a bit cheesed off that it didn't go for more but i'm just glad someone is making use of it rather than it being chucked away

It's happened to me as well. Won an stunner of a Mk1 ST interior for £100. And from the pictures they could have passed as a brand new interior. So yeah won the auction, message a hour later saying he sold the drivers seat. And had the cheek saying do i still want the interior for £100.

B@ll@cks mate.
