ebay feedback - I am so bad

[Neonkiss]

he would refund the 2 Grand for the chips and keep the $2800.00 shipping. ( ebay rules shipping is non refundable )

Buzz, That's my big bitch right now.
ebay rules have changed.
I sold an item as is and described it very well.
Packaged it to survive a nuclear bomb.
When it arrived the box got wet. No broken glass no complaints about excessive shipping just wet eproms.
He files a "Not as described complaint" after I said I would send replacement EPROMS.
Paypal refunded the cost of the item and the cost of shipping. That's their new policy.

So yes, you can buy an item "as is" then check it out and if you don't like it file a complaint and get your cost plus shipping refunded.
You just have to pay the return postage.

I gotta say that I learned a lot from this post ... good insight on both sides of Ebay.    to all that participated.

Instead of feedback I like the subject of inflated shipping cost.  Example a seller in China I buy eproms from normally sells with free shipping. sometimes like right now he has what looks to be a very good deal, 2000 eproms for 2 grand, ahh but he wants $2800.00 shipping.  is this.  Now lets go one step futher, say I went for the deal, he could ship me a brick instead of eproms, I would open up a dispute, ebay would require me to ship him back the brick at my expense, he would refund the 2 Grand for the chips and keep the $2800.00 shipping. ( ebay rules shipping is non refundable )

Right now I have a bid  on 5 eproms and 2 simms ( incomplete poker game ) bidding started at $9.99 ( I'm the only bidder )  BUT 15 dollars shipping. Last time I checked a small flat rate box is $5.35 so where does the other $9.65 go ??   I know for boxes and packing supplies. About a week ago my post office gave me 75 flat rate boxes ( 25 of each size )  at NO cost ya know like free !!!!  Now I bet I hear the story about how he has to take the box to the PO.  BS attach $5.35 to the box and your letter Carrier will take it to the PO for you !!

How about Walmart installs a couple of buttons at each checkout stand and you rate your shopping experience that day Good or Bad.  You press bad and instantly get banned from every Walmart in the land.  OR you press good and when you get the milk home it's soured.

Buzz if you file a dispute with ebay and you return your item you get a refund for item cost and the original shipping. So whatever the seller paid for shipping he has lost too. So you both loose shipping cost both ways. ( I know this post is old)

I would like to chime in my latest dealings with eBay -   

I sold an iPhone 4s for $425 - exactly 29 days after the sale I get a dispute -  the buyer claims they never received the item -

well luckily I have a wife who keeps everything  and I have the tracking number which clearly proves item was delivered.
After two weeks eBay refunded the buyer and screwed me  --   they have a policy that states any item over $250 requires SIGNATURE verification.


bottom line you must know all the rules

Yeah you got screwed on that one and they knew they would win because you did not use the signature thing. That rule is fairly new too.

Actually it isn't that new, at least 2 years I can remember and it reminds you when you print the shipping label from Paypal about Signaure Confirmatin (total rip on cost too), the whole deal is set up to use eBay shipping and Paypal, if you use their tools it works. Yes it cost, No I don't like the fees, but if you adhere to the way it is supposed to be it protects you. I do know if only selling occasionally it can be hard to know, however many people will exploit this. Johnathan, you can go back and see if that phone has been activated and if by same person then burn his azz by both eBay and Paypal and possibly cops due to value, personally I wouldn't sleep until I got the prick. You can get the ESN from your old number by calling provider probably

Yeah it was about that long as I remember being pissed about it. But like you said he probably doesn't sell that much.
