Guy said he watched YouTube on how to get free stuff and he thinks he ordered to many and wants to cancel.

Youtubers were the major reason that shrift store prices have gone up. Now they are focused on giving away all the secrets of the yard sale game. And it's all for a little bit of that youtube fame.
Why you would tell everyone about where to source products and give away all the tricks is beyond me.
I spent 3 dollars at a garage sale and made $426 in profit!! Come see how and be my direct competition all in the name of 'we just want to help you make money' !! Losers. I hate them all.

I did not see this person's post until you shared the link. There are quite a few YouTube videos out there. Is there a way to report this person? Maybe tag a Blue?

There is a video about one month old that explains how to do this for the exact item (Iphone).
Good Luck Selling!

Amazingly terrible. I checked youtube and there are hundreds of videos explaining step by step on how to steal from ebay sellers.
The link you posted to the member's post shows the buyer complaining that he got too many free things and wants to cancel. Could anyone really be that stupid, not just for stealing, but for admitting it on ebay?

Ya, there's a bunch of them.
I can't believe he come here and posted about ordering to many and wants to cancel.

He probably got suspended?

Maybe it is not too late for eBay to catch this person? I am not sure how to tag a Blue, but I will try.

You tagged just right but really I don’t think ebay can do anything.
I just don’t return things especially when I make a mistake. I just put my stuff up for sale. I hate returning. I’ve done 1 return on eBay in 20 yrs and once years ago I got refunded for a counterfeit item.
I don’t ask for refunds or partials either. I had a lady here make a dog dress for Pearl. I got it it doesn’t fit. My measurements were wrong. Am I gonna tell her that? No. I will donate the dress and take the loss. Could I return the dress? Yes but I’d have to lie and I don’t need $10 that bad.
All these people scamming Apple products don’t realize that Apple can brick them easily. If someone scams me for an Apple product I’ll have Apple brick the item so it can’t be used.
I usually don’t sell high scam items but every once in a while I will sell something I’m not using.

Thank you for checking my "tag a Blue" capabilities.
I guess I was just hoping something could be done so another seller or sellers don't get scammed. It is just so sad some people in this world are so terrible.

There are videos and articles on how to scam everything and every site. Shameful. I came on them by accident but then decided to see just what these people are up to. You can pay people to get refunds for you. How do these people sleep at night? Probably better than us poor saps.
Probably because these are the 'entitled', the 'well, you DO think we deserve I, don't you?', the up and coming, the movers and shakers, the leaders of 'tomorrow'.
The foolishness of one's actions or words is determined by the number of witnesses.
Perhaps if Brains were described as an APP, many people would use them more often.

Hi @goodluckselling, I just wanted to clarify that often times, the "methods" described in these videos are fabricated and do not actually pose a threat to the eBay site or our Community. These can be reported to YouTube for review and potential moderation and while we often times are not able to use any information on a third party site to identify a user on eBay or take action on their account, don't hesitate to @mention a member of the Community Team in any posts you see on the boards so we can investigate for appropriate action.
