Buyer Rant

I'm a huge ebay buyer. I stock my entire store from items I buy off eBay. This issues I deal with doing business from an android and stocking a retail store using ebay auction are piling up. 

List of issues:

1) I cannot access the code so I can utilize my ebay bucks using an android phone. Go into the classic site using chrome doesn't work either.  I have yet to redeem any and its been almost a year since I signed up and started collecting them. By the way you don't use them you lose them. They expire every couple of month if they aren't used. 

 

2) I am on ebay bidding on auctions and trying to pay for ones I win. Sometimes you get over excited greedy sellers that don't give a buyer any time to pay and your won item ends up at the resolution center. Paypal dont like something they will block you from paying for an items. My rant is I am on ebay trying to pay for an items and their software has a bock not letting me pay. I personally don't care who handles the money side of ebay. That's ebays deal. My problem is I am on ebay trying to pay for an item and its not letting me pay. I contact ebay and they tell me it's a paypal issue. Me speaking to ebay now.........  No Mr. ebay that's your issue. I am a customer buying items from ebay and your software isnt allowing me to pay. That means it's up to you to fix it or the sellers on your site aren't going to get paid. This is me pulling out a card putting in the numbers and trying to pay. The card has money and its a card you accept. The obligation on my end has been met. It's up to ebay to accept my money or not. By the way there are loads of new auction sites popping up and China is starting wholesale priced websites for the public to buy from all over the net. EBay no longer is our only option. 

 

I'm going to stop here cuz my rant really require a novel. Maybe I see an ebay ebook in my future. 

If anyone needs any help feel free to contact me. I've been through it all.

Re: Buyer Rant

It's possible that the Op is having unpaid item cases closed, and they are unable to pay after it's closed.

Re: Buyer Rant

A US -based seller needs six days before he can close an Unpaid Item Dispute. At any point in that SIX DAYS the buyer can pay and the seller is required to ship.

 

An overseas seller cannot open the UID for 96 hours (four days) and another four days must pass before he can close the UID. Again, at any point  in that eight days the buyer can cough up the cash, and the Dispute is closed.

 

Most buyers, especially those using eBay to source stock for resale, buy and pay promptly.  It's just good business.

Seems to be a limit on how many item not received cases you can open in 1 year ???

 

was a little surprised  15 items did not arrive  and also the tracking info showed  they did not arrive .....     

 

For first 9 cases  they gave me a refund  but after  that  give me a message  -----Sorry  you cannot open any more item not recieved cases

 

its not the buyers  fault if the item did not arrive .


Hi brian@ebay should eBay revoke MBG for a buyer when, across multiple purchases, there is tracking, but tracking doesn't show delivered/notice left/available for pickup/returned to sender/etc?


Hi @ja-2149, if we see a higher than normal number of Item Not Received / Not As Described cases opened then we may restrict the ability to open further cases temporarily or permanently.  I haven't researched the account and I'm not able to discuss account details here @apar_ebikes, so I suggest contacting customer support to see why you aren't able to open a Item Not Received case.
