New Scam with Forwarded Mail

Anonymous
Not applicable

This is a good one I've never seen this.   I had a buyer that is new, but he knows what he is doing.   He has me mail his package to an old address that he just recently fowarded.   As a result it'll take 2 - 3 weeks to get there, he waits until the first day that he can file a not received case, and then it gives me 3 days until I have to close it before receiving a transaction defect.     Since it's my fault, according to ebay, that the buyer intentionally uses an old address, I'm forced to refund him to avoid the defect.   Now today the item was properly forwarded and delivered. 

 

Thanks to ebay's continual anti seller it's always their fault attitude, I had to not only send someone a free item, but also pay for the shipping.

 

Thanks Ebay!   This is the reason why I have been moving and selling more items in the facebook marketplace now that you can ship items there, and I don't have to pay $100 a month, or deal with the same anti seller mentality that you see with ebay.   

 

When facebook marketplace buries you in the ground when you want to find whose to blame you need only look in a mirror. 

 

If the oceans were wells of ink, and the great skies were endless scrolls, I could not possibly write how many ways there are on ebay to rip sellers off, with ebay offering minimal protection.

Dont feel bad I figured Ebay out long time ago

 

I called them about this told me provide tracking I said Ok I will I just wont tell buyer I have one

 

I ignored him wanted him to open dispute , so Ebay can see what he is all about . he did next day

 

soon as it was official I provided tracking , Ebay closed the case buyer leaves me negative , Ebay wont remove it  


The rules are you must upload tracking into the structured details prior to the delivery date, or else eBay cannot protect you if you attempt an appeal.

 

It doesn't sound like you have eBay figured out at all. Your antics earned you a negative.
