I've been using e-bay for years with only a late delivery to moan about...

untill yesterday when the item i bought through ebay from a member of this very forum arrived

now i won't name this person  because they know who they are but needless to say i was absolutely gutted when an item which was described as "Excellent clean example .... no visable damage" arrived in p1ss poor condition .

Not due to damage in transit as it was very well wrapped but due to an accident of some sort while still on the donor car (badly rusted around damage to show age of damage)

I've contacted the seller who was "very very angry" at my tone (excuse me!!! :-?) and i have started a dispute which is pointless as the item must be returned to claim a refund and the postage is more than the item is worth !

Very dissapointed that a fellow member of this fine forum could falsely describe an item and then hide behind paypal rules.

i really don't know what else to say  :-/ apart from i'm still astounded

 

Now that is bad news

I've used ebay countless times, apart from delivery sometimes - it's been good.  i have a rule, don't spend more than u can afford to lose :exclamation

At least you can leave negative feedback without having to suffer yourself

[Jay w]

51 plate 2.6CD FVSH 12 months mot  . Almost mint 90000 miles.
Ebay buy it now price £1750 .Paid £1140. Well pleased.

2001 CDX with 96,000 in very good nick £520  

I have used Ebay countless time, tonight i had a brand new motorola phone a Kenwood DNX5220 stereo and a bluetooth unit arrive.
My LPG kit came from Ebay and i bought and sold my Alfa Romeo on there as well.

You have to use care, my wife has been done over with fake goods that we are disputing with paypal currently, but on the whole its not a bad way to save money.

I do NOT agree that paypal and ebay should be owned and regulated by the same company, there is an ethical issue there i feel and they should be separated, but that's a different issue

Had a message pop up tonight on Ebay when logged in....said something about sellers can no longer leave negative or neutral feedback.

Ive used Ebay for quite a while and on the whole its a very useful resource.

What do you do if a non paying buyer?
I did used to get cross with sellers who ask you t leave feedback and they will do the same, paid instantly by pay pal, how can they say anything negtive?

You can Phil, but under egay rules i think you have to return the goods to get a refund exluding postage.
why the opps am i going to spend £10 to post an item that i might get refunded £12 for???
 Only thing to do is leave negative feedback...which didn't go down to well
