Ebay really pissed me off and I refuse to sell there ever again after 10+ years of selling successfully.
I sold a baby playpen, barely used. Packed away totally clean it was hardly touched. Set up the auction really low free shipping and it took off. The asshole who bought it realized for like another $20 they could have gotten the same item new and when they received it made up total lies about the condition of the item.
Ebay didn't require any proof. This person got their money back, my paypal account was debited by ebay into the negative, and the item was returned and now is in bad condition from poor packing and they kept part of it and ebay did NOTHING. I was pretty much scammed by a buyer, and am surprised they even sent it back with the crazy messages they sent me after they received it. They claimed they went to the hospital sick from the mold on the item. LOL
And I called them several times, made threads here about this! I had not been selling much for a while and was totally blown away how hard ebay fucked me over and appealed to this lying piece of shit who fucked me over on my auction.
The item is now sitting in my garage becoming ruined, when if this mother fucker hadn't ran up my auction and regretted it, I might have actually gotten $50 to $100 for it, but they big almost to $200 and the stupid thing is that price new.
NOT MY FAULT. I really don't even see how I would have protected myself in this situation, Ebay totally fucked me dry and hard. Then all of a sudden you owe them money and they threaten you. NEVER AGAIN. lol
edit. yeah... digital goods might be the future of ebay, as this mail shit out and get fucked over isn't working. lol
