Sellers get a defect if they issue refund for small shipping overcharge.

This is a horrible way for eBay to encourage crooked, underhanded business practices.

Myself I quit giving a refund of $1.38 in shipping overcharges a couple years ago. But to think that after all this time they still do this. How many sellers have been given a vacation where this kind of a defect was the only defect?. Or, at the least, a refund of thirty nine cents was the tipping point?

I get shipping over charges refunded to me all the time, especially when the 'cart' doesn't work. I don't think any of my sellers are getting defects due to this. At least I haven't heard back from them saying this.

I get shipping refunds all the time, and I see them in my bank balance on line.  I do not want cash in the package because I have had quite a few go astray, big packages too.  If eBay would fix the 'cart' most of the shipping refund problem would go away.

Also, a lot of sellers do not know how to adjust the s/h when the items are not paid for.  And the solution is to pay (on my part) and refund (on their part).  This has worked out well.
