Fake eBay account

Something has to give, I really think eBay needs to switch to a non cancellation, auto pay policy. Sellers put in too much work, do too much typing, to receive a cancellation because someone didn't read the description. I understand if a refund is in order, but when you bid you buy simple.

Re: Fake eBay account

Let me guess. It is one of your cards that is not really a card?

Re: Fake eBay account

I disagree, I would rather cancel an order rather than, ship it and return it. If there is a problem in the beginning, just cancel and move on.

Re: Fake eBay account

1.  I believe your return policy is easily trumped by eBay's Money Back Guarantee.and in  certain situations the buyer  can keep the item and but  gets a full refund.  Not  certain how one would return a  digital  item.

2. eBay does have an immediate payment required option you  can select when you set up your listings.  Been around a while and  is beneficial for fixed price listing.  Time zone difference  make it  difficult to set up on auctions.  I used to win auctions while I was sleeping.  Most buyers , like me, would never set up an auto withdrawal  from a   cc/debit card purchase on a  selling site..

3.  Yep, all sellers put time  and effort in to posting up their listing - they are  paid out of their profit  proceeds.  Never  sold anything that I didn't  make   a decent profit margin by my  standards which I set  quit high.when I was selling on eBay.  As a rule of thumb  I used  for every one dollar of acquisition cost of an item I would  sell for 5 to 6 times + my ship & handling and if the market price says  I could sell it for more I certainly would.  Never played with the auction  listings - I primarily sold  high end  preowned items  that were in really good or better condition and never exaggerated the condition usually unstated.  Hit some home runs periodically.  Returns/refunds not so many -  5  out of 1665 shipments. - nice batting average me thinks.

Re: Fake eBay account

The title of your message is "Fake eBay account".  Yet your issue is a buyer who either did not pay or cancelled.  Where was the fake account?

So you would rather have a return and be out of shipping costs, both ways?  Ok.
