Ebay doesn't give a s**t. They let frauds and bad sellers persist. There are so many sellers out of China selling in the "bead" category that don't send what is purchased, or they are not what they are advertised to be. I personally have purchased HUNDREDS of the agate pendant beads that were never sent. I have about 500 I did get, but hundreds more that were never sent. The sellers don't like the price they sell for, mark them "shipped" but don't send. There is NO WAY literaly hundreds don't arrive.
I ended up spending hours upon hours filing claims for "item not received" over the course of a year. Infuriating! Most of the sellers set a delivery time of 2 months or longer so a buyer cannot leave feedback. Ebay makes the buyer wait until the delivery date has come and gone before filing a claim. Again, long past time a seller can leave feedback. And, if you look at all of these seller's feedback, you will see hundreds of negatives. But, they sell thousands and it over shadows the negatives that actually get left. I have had sellers send a "cut and paste" reply when I file a claim, asking me to wait another week or two. **bleep**, it had already been over two months. While the ones that were actually sent arrived in 1-4 weeks. It is a joke. Ebay just wants the money they get in fees.
