packages missing or no trac #

[stevendosa]

Does anybody have problems with missing packages coming from China or places around there . Over the years I have lost a lot of packages and I mean a lot !! , some no track # and some with track # that say package can not be tracked and saying they can not be tracked from day one. . What I'm getting at is if everybody is missing as many packages as I am and like I said a lot packages, there is no way any company can stay in business with that much merchandise gone missing . SO are they charging so much now because so much is missing or are they just not sending the packages and saying they are missing to charge so much

Open an item NOT received case if the latest estimated arrival date has passed. Shipping is very slow. And many of those sellers are scammers. Even if ebay tossed them , they can set up immediately and start selling again since IP addresses are private in China.

If you can't open the case, wait a few days and try opening it again.

Beware if you start too many refund requests @stevendosa over the life of your buying career, you may be locked out of the Money Back Guarantee! Unknown how many is too many, but "I mean a lot !!" sounds like way too many.

alseyf-73 , Do you honesty think e-bay will punish me for their overseas sellers giving them track # that go nowhere or no track # at all or do not even send the item at the price they agreed on and saying they did send it ? and on top of everything else , I don't find out if I'm getting my item for a month and a half. .... WOW that's not cool   Thank You ...  STEVEN DOSA

Yes, if you are not vetting sellers properly by reviewing their feedback (comments, not just the numerical percentage) BEFORE you purchase. 99% for a high volume Chinese seller is REALLY REALLY BAD.  Ebay gives buyers the tools to choose good sellers, and most of the time it works well, but it doesn't work if you don't use it. Also, if you are buying items that are priced "too good to be true" then yes, you will most of the time be disappointed. Stop buying cheap overseas trash.

Just like any business, when a buyer here becomes a liability they will find themselves locked out.
