Got an email from ebay to my main account.. All of this is because i got scammed once by some brooklyn resident that did a return switcharoo on me. It is really quite insane that this is something ebay feels that sellers should be penalized for. I wonder how many sellers have become NARU'd because they got scammed.
It is sick that any company is able to operate in this way to be honest and i'm sure in the absense of ebays monopoly this would have never happened because nobody else can afford to be so shortsighted and treat their clients this way.
100% perfect feedback, selling for many years , somewhat high volume, loyal repeat customers etc.
Be scammed, get higher fees on top of the already extremely high fees, get less visibilty, get threatening letters to "change for the better", get your funds on hold und so weiter when you have done nothing wrong and the only thing you could have done to prevent this is to cave in to a scammer at an earlier point, but the outcome would have been the same.. just don't try to fight back is the modus operandi ebay wants us to live by. Like what the heck.. How does any of this make any sense? There is no wonder that scammers have it easy on ebay when they on top of having no problems getting free items also have the ability to ruin their sellers account by 1. Being the only part that is able to leave negative feedback and 2. make their victims account reduced or maybe even banned. Under these conditions i am sure a lot of sellers just give the thieves what they want. Just think about it.. someone who does not create revenue for ebay is able to permanently shut of a what has been a long-term money stream for them. This is not something a business that intends on growth would be able to do.. it is like if a workshop decided to give customers higher bills if they took their car to service because how dare they have a car with faults, but the outcome in that situation would obviously be that the customer then bought a different brand car with a less nonsensical approach to customer service because none of this would be possible if not for ebays monopoly.
Of course we do see lots of stories about the injustice going on at ebay reading on this forum, but i often wonder about the stories we never hear about which is sure to be many. Probably lots of instances that ruin everything for many without them having any way of fixing the problem. I can only imagine the feeling they must have where they have been scammed for something expensive only to being furter penalized by ebay who somehow feels like they are in the right to treat them that way.
ebay expects an unaitanble level of service from their sellers which is quite ironic considering what a horrible service they provide for us.
