Fraud is expected on eBay even encouraged

I sold a clock radio For $50, the person requested a $24 overnight delivery which one was supposed to be paid for by the buyer. I paid for it out of my own pocket eBay charge the buyer. The buyer then said it wasn’t as the picture which was a lie because it’s exactly like the picture. Send it back to me charge me for the shipping kept an extra $24 because eBay sided with him. As sellers we have no rights. So I just paid $26 to sell an item on eBay. And eBay helped him do that. I know it seems like a small amount. I’m done using eBay I can tell you that. There’s so many other platforms out there that are way way more versed with cyber security there ran better there managed better. eBay sucks!!

Seller's should always just go with the shipping offered on their listing. If overnight was not an option than you shouldn't have agreed to it, with an online sale. Sorry but you set yourself up for that one. Best of luck to you....
