Selling my own unused phone, with proof of purchase, resulted in my account being PERMANENTLY banned.I followed every rule. I tried contacting customer service. Your CS cut off my calls saying that's for the case. No proper explanation. This is compl...

eBay using my future sales to cover a refund for an order I was never paid for

Hi everyone, I’m hoping someone from the community or eBay can help clarify this, because it doesn’t seem right. I had a buyer return an item and I issued a refund. The problem is I was never paid out for that order in the first place — the buyer’s p...

Ebay dropped my listing for Counterfeit with a copy of the original Receipt Listed.

This just seems so petty.

It's like they keep looking for ways they can penalize you and charge you more fee's. I guess working hard to keep the account Top Rated doesn't mean much anymore. In most cases I send a refund and don't even ask for the item to be shipped back to us...
