When I use ebay I automatically assume that I am dealing with a low-life. If I am right I lose nothing, if I am wrong, happy days.
Never assume that something is 'sold' until the filthy lucre is in your mitts.

Seriously though, i agree. Seller is being shafted recently by ebay.

Fortunatley - or perhaps down to the type of thing i sell i very very rarely get unpaid items etc.

I guess i have also benefited from the recent change in feedback as mine has gone from 99.6% to 99.8%

I think Ebay are getting so many businesses selling these days they are shifting their Ts and Cs accordingly - to put greater emphasis on buyer protection.

About time they had some serious competition.

The number of sellers inconvenienced v buyers shafted appears to be minimal.  We all know under the old scheme, buyers were forced to leave +ve feedback, no matter what.  Hence I'm all for the new scheme - its not perfect, but its a big step the right way imho.


Certain items you'll always have hassles with - phones, laptops, cars and so on.  I avoid buying/selling these.  Probably why I have very little hassle on Ebay.

The feedback changes I agree with. After all, what can go wrong with a buyer? They either pay or they don't.
