Ebay vent!!!!!!!

moped wrote: I am no longer happy about ebay sellers. For a while I have been buying lots of stuff on ebay - Mammag told me about that forever after I think - maybe it was someone else, but anyways I tried to buy some off ebay and I thought it was a good enough price. I realized today that I haven't recieved it yet so I looked at his feedback and he is no longer a seller - been unregistered - UGH!!!!!!!!!!!

My first time getting screwed on Ebay!!!!!!!

Must remember to check feedback all the time!

chloe&tysmommy replied: awe I'm sorry that happened to you!!! My SIL was going to buy some stuff off ebay but she's still leary...I hope you can get refunded somehow

moped replied: I can't get refunded - but i will still buy - just watch the feedback and be confident in the seller!!

I have had good experiences too

mom21kid2dogs replied: Bummer! So sorry you got scammed. If it's been less than 30 days you can file through PayPal for a refund. I have been SO LUCKY on Ebay. I buy & sell alot there and have never been scammed yet. I did look at a Leapster the other day that was going for pretty cheap. The outfit selling it had 346 negatives just this month! Needless to say, I'll wait it out!

If you want, I can give you the names of the sellers I've dealt with (depending on what you're looking for). A good idea is to buy from those who have ebay stores or 1000+ positive feedbacks, good grammar, pics, and no spelling errors.

Now I'm even more scared...but I suppose it's all part of the internet game. Sorry this happened to you! Write a nasty review about him...you can do that right?? Oh I guess he's unregistered, so it doesn't matter. Not sure how it all works yet. Bummer.

A&A'smommy replied: UH OH that is why I never buy anything on ebay!!! I'm sorry that happened to you!!

gr33n3y3z replied:
I agree

But if I were to buy it would be from a store getting rid of stock or a big company

amymom replied: I am sorry that happened to you. But you are correct you need to check feedback and be careful. I have not had a problem yet on ebay, been selling and buying a little bit for a few years.

lisar replied: I am sorry that happened to you. My DH sells stuff on ebay all the time. He hasnt ever screwed anyone. I buy stuff all the time and yet to have been screwed. You know if you paid through pay-pal then there is a way to get your money back.

ediep replied: I usually like ebay, but I hate when someone swoops in and outbids me in the last 2 seconds!! That gets me so mad!!!

So sorry that happened to you! Hope you get your money back!!!

3_call_me_mama replied: I have generally had good luck on EBAY> Gotten some really good deals! But i HATE it when shipping is one price adn then you recieve the rpoduct in a padded envelope (that costs what a buck?! and postage was liek 84 cents!) and you paid like $6 for shipping. IRRITATES ME!! Sorry you got scammed Jen! Better luck next time!

mama3x replied: YES YES YES I live in Hawaii so the shipping is INSANE even when it's in a bubble envelope! I got a cell phone cover selling for 99cents Buy It Now. Shipping was $8!!!!! WTF right? Well it's still cheaper than buying it here b/c one of those covers costs $15-$25 here.

Go through PayPal and the ebay ppl and get your $ back. I'm sure you can!
