Absolutely disgusted with EBAY and it's unfair practices of buyers are always right & sellers aren't

Another first

I ship these things in cardboard boxes so they don’t get smashed in transit. Here’s a buyer who is complaining that when they opened the box he saw the top dented in wanting me to resolve it. I already told him to return for refund. Should I also tel...

Buyer left neutral feedback because I would not issue partial refund

...and by "partial" I mean 2/3 of the purchase price - which was already negotiated down via best offer (she had originally lowballed it but against my better judgement I worked with her to agree on a price). Shipping was free as well. I shipped the ...

"Buy it now" turned up in an auction where I didn't have it set that way. eBay or my fault? I honored the sale but lost money.

How to hide number sold from listing?

Don't want to show that I've sold hundreds of an item. Ebay puts this info. twice in the listing. First where it asks you to select quantity it tells you how many have sold in last 24 hours. Then under the "Add to watchlist" button it tells you how m...
