This is all you need to know: "Ebay does not care much about what the seller says. " Expect the 'machines' to pull money from you even if no balance and return it to seller. You MIGHT get an item back, but I'd bet dollars to donuts that you'll get back the fake item that the buyer suggested. It's called replacing and I'll guarantee it goes on, has been for years. Usually collectors and resellers themselves. I suspect that some upset end users, mad that they scratched their $100 Oakley's, buy replacements on here and send back theirs.
THIS IS HUGE and why I'm not listing, too much risk, as a seller, no risk as a buyer. I've thought of ways of sealing or adding asset tags, but once I was aware that eBay has simply automated away any seller response, appeal or case, it's pointless.
I left Amazon years ago because they did that. Both simply want HIGH volume resellers who don't care about 1/50 losses, but little guys can't handle it: buyer/scammers know this. I left ebay for another channel and now they are getting defrauded too. The markets are closed, America is too dishonest now. They need to start teaching ethics early.
