Help! I could use German translation
 
Google does not know this German word.

And somebody bidding on one of my eBay auctions has been described with this (obviously not nice) word:

Spaßbieter

TIA

I'm not positive but I think the 'bieter' part of the word means 'bidder'. The 'spaß' part I think means 'fun'. Maybe he makes a lot of jokes (that you might not get as they may be in German).

Good luck. Isn't eBay a fun place?

spaß is indeed "fun". Bieter is "bidder" so I'd say it refers to a "flake" on eBay.
