eBay

eBay at this point is definitely the most embarrassing platform out there idk if I’m just going to use the account for the advertisement or just remove everything entirely I don’t even really care. Definitely can’t let them touch or handle any of my items personally ever again it’s pretty scarey tbh. Most def will be going to small claims for this. These people have broken English speaking employees from India answering their phones in America, making and answering on crucial topics that isnt even correct information but that’s the guidance they give out. I definitely got screwed over for a $6k item, was told all week that I was safe and that they would handle it and I would be getting paid on the 4th because what I advertised the gentleman did receive.. The guy that purchased my part to begin with i could clearly see he was trying to pull a scam so he could get a refund and steal parts out of the box but tell them those parts were actually missing but were not. Gentleman agreed verbally and through additional photos as to what he was getting for a week. I have a NO RETURN POLICY. THATS very bad business on eBay.. If I busted the agreement I absolutely would have to refund him but I did not. Period. End of story. I want my $6k back to replace what I sold. Even if I got it back it’s coming back busted and broken that’s why I have a no return policy to begin with. If the looser was close enough to just drive it over to my house then we wouldn’t be having this conversation. And I can ask him where the missing parts are to his face. Go mess with other people expensive items these people can’t even hire English speaking representatives to give clear cut to the point correct information. The only leg the representative had to stand on when they went in the complete opposite direction last minute on the 4th was, “ I’m completely uneducated about what u sold here I don’t know anything about it.” And “the screws were loose on the part.” OF COURSE THE SCREWS WERE LOOSE THE GUY BOUGHT A UUUUUUSED PART!!!HES GOING TO HAVE TO REINSTALL AND SCREW IT BACK DOWN IN HIS CAR🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯!!!!! Rocket science here people I know it’s hard when you have to actually think and use your brain. Maybe that’s why u should stick to the chat when making crucial decisions on other peoples expensive items. Did he agree, yes. Did the part come, yes. Do I have any history of anything negative since 2008? No. We will see because I’m not done with this that’s the single worst business model I’ve ever seen. The guy also had the nerve to complain about parts that WERE NEVER AGREED UPON OR INCLUDED TO BEGIN WITH!!! He actually listed a “wish list” that he legitimately thought I should pay for as part of his claim to eBay. But were never agreed upon. Unbelievable. I didn’t know eBay treated the sellers like this since 2008 I would’ve had no idea till now that’s embarrassing.

You seem to be just 'embarrassing' yourself.

Education is the key to everything in life. This includes selling on this platform. I assume you did not understand eBay's return policy, which is no doubt lengthy and filled with catch ya's. I have been here for over 26 years, and am still learning with over $(censored) in sales. Luckily, my mistakes are not costly now, at least.

Your claim to selling on eBay since 2008 and only 6 feedbacks is difficult to comprehend as a fellow seller.

You always have other recourse actions to take against your merchandise, basically being stolen. I would suggest looking into them.

I wish you luck!

Nothing prevents a seller from filing police reports and with the OIG. Nothing also prevents the seller from taking the buyer to court. I have done it several times and won every time.

Not sure why you would feel embarrassed but you have demonstrated a pattern of non-stop complaining despite people trying to explain to you how high-value sales here are going to go and why it is a risk to sell those items when you are a new seller.

Now if you are really going to file a court case over this then get up and do so. The smart money says that you will not. Please post the court case details here once you have filed so that we can follow your progress. Good luck.

I would never make fun of someone’s writing style, grammar, spelling, or try to make him feel worse after he’s lost a few thousand dollars. I don’t equate calling out that behavior with nitpicking. But, hey, to each his own opinion.
