e-bay sellers, GRRRRRRRR!
 
Don't you just hate it when you are watching stuff in e-bay, pass up on bidding because there is a "better" item, only to have the seller of the better item change the listing to say it's damaged? :mad:

yeah it right pisses me off......

try amazon

scoobyvirgin 27 March 2011 10:22 PM

I've got it the other way, buyer with 100% feedback, bid on a Thursday, won Early Friday morning, No contact about payment so far. If I'd won, I'd pay asap. What is it with some people?

Mrs has brought something from someone. 2 weeks later still not dispatched so message sent about instant dispatch or refund and they disappeared off the face of te earth.

i've stuck about 30 dvd's on ebay last week . i've had about 20 sold ,17 paid so far so i count that as being lucky :lol1:

what does annoy me is the people that bid last minute then piss off and don't pay :lol1:

Ebay sucks arse, bought something that was supposidley brand new and guarenteed for 12 months after purchase that broke within a week, tried to claim on guarentee and seller ingnored me for 3 weeks, opened a dispute and it ended with the seller not responding to them but they still found in there favour...wtf

I've been bummed a few time on eBay .. (it wasn't a listing to bum me so stop looking) but the last time they found in favour of me ..

I wouldn't risk anything high priced on there.

i just hate ebay! got ripped recently.

Scooby Soon! 28 March 2011 09:45 AM

same for ebay sellers, many ebay buyers are scum claiming non delivery of items (stealing) or how about filling the wrong address when they pay and then blaming US when we deliver it to the address they gave us (but moved out of 6 months ago! :rolleyes:

I've had two in the last couple of weeks, one a non-payer who won the auction then disappeard - I had to relist it and then got £40 less for it. The second I won very cheaply and now the seller claims to have chucked it out! Yeah right...

Hysteria1983 28 March 2011 10:35 AM

It's a pain in the arse!!

I sold an i pod and a camera on there last month, amongst other things. Neither the i pod or the camera were paid for after a week. Opened up a dispute and the bloke who won the camare for £20 is no longedr a registered user!
The only good thing that came from it is that I re listed it last weekend and it sold on Saturday for £42 :D

Everytime I list a few items now there is usually one thing that doesn't het paid for!

I bought some clothes for my daughter, supposedly new without tags, and they turned up with what looked like soup or baby food down the sleeve. They claimed they knew nothing about it.

or buyers that ask stupid questions when the information is in the listing.

I must be lucky or use intelligence when on eBay. I love the site, Im a top rated seller, buy loads as well as sell, get lots of bargains, never have problems with sellers or buyers, get the odd non-payer but its no biggie just relist.

The site changed my life massively, makes money like no other site can. Now in my 12th year on there.

wow you were an early adopter, I registered my first account 15-Oct-00 and there were not many people in the UK on it at all infact you could not even get a paypal account at that time.

I sell a lot on there, I tend to buy a lot on there also. You will always come across some people who don't play by the rules. They are the ones who buy something, and think 'ah well, it's only ebay' ... Then decide not to pay.

JPL 28 March 2011 04:02 PM

I sell a fair bit, 99% of my transactions are fine.

Use the feedback system, comments are usually spot on. I myself am not 100%, I was selling a load of DVD's a while back and a couple got lost, some people don't bother following up with the seller, they just leave neg feedback, which is a bit stupid.

I like ebay, works for me.
