Selling

[nadrathn-31]

After I sell a product on ebay. If the person who bought the item cheats on me. Is there any action I can take on ebay?

eBay seller protection is practically non-existent.

You have no items listed so asking this now is a waste of your time and ours.

Wait until it happens, then ask here for advice.

There is nothing you can do if you are scammed.  A buyer can return a different item or an  empty package and you will be forced to refund.

Don't be that way. It's always best to have all your info BEFORE you start selling a product. That's just basic good business.  Especially with eBay as they will side with the buyer every time no matter what. This community board is filled with people asking how they can get their money back after being screwed over by a buyer. Lets make this a positive community and help those who ask or not respond.

How was downunder-61's answer NOT helpful to the OP?

What would be YOUR answer to the OP's question (with all due respect?)

If you work hard and are an honest seller with in demand products the risk of being cheated is less.  If you want to dropship or sell cheap items that inferior you may be the person doing the cheating.

Okay, and just how would you answer the nebulous questions that have no details or information?

I stand by my response - We see hundreds of these one line help questions each week from our Sri Lankan friends, a lot of them like the OP with scenario's that may or may not happen and they haven't even started listing.  Hey, if you have the time to lead this member (and all  the others) through all aspects of eBay that they are required to learn, be my guest.

My usual responce is less polite:

Until you learn to put effort in to do your own research, on your own time, you will not succeed as a seller here. I would cut my losses now and find another business venture……

Are you married to the person who bought your item?

If not, i wouldn't worry about it.
