jkeener71 Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Never had any problems with ebay for many years... Now a bad string of things, starting with... First I got scammed on a PS4, but got my money back luckily. Then I won a gaming mouse on 7/14, says it will deliver between 7/18 - 7/22 7/17 - I get no message or tracking so I contact the seller asking if it has shipped and to give me a tracking #. 7/18 - Seller says has been busy and will ship it asap 7/22 - I email again asking for tracking # Today - No contact since Then I won a gaming keyboard on 7/15, says it will deliver 7/18 - 7/23 7/18 - I get no message or tracking so I contact the seller asking if it has shipped and to give me a tracking #. Today - Still have not heard a single word from this seller Why do people do this?! Within a day or at least a few days, communicate. I understand you get busy in life, but we all have responsibilities. It is just very frustrating. And they all had at least 99% feedback, which is slightly bizarre. Anyways, hope I get my keyboard and mouse soon. Edited July 23, 2014 by jkeener71 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ir_cow Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 thats what paypal is for. You get 30days to make a claim and you can give the seller a bad rating. I generally do not buy from people unless it's a powerseller or 200+ good rating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BluePanda Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 I feel ya. I'm waiting on a last part for my car. Bought from a seller because of their "fast" shipping. Paid Sunday and I'm going to be lucky seeing it Friday. It's a ten hour drive from here too... But yea...it's hard as a seller and it's hard as a buyer.

Black64 Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 eBay fees are nasty, I sell mostly on Audiogon now (about 90% cheaper) But I always shipped with-in 24 hours of payment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted July 25, 2014 Posted July 25, 2014 And to think I was going to try ebay. Saw the fees and said fuck that!Can't beat the audience though! Yeah, it's a necessary evil but has had me looking elsewhere as much as I can...it's an amazing place for a buyer but as a seller it's rough.

jkeener71 Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 Finally, I get this message: Hi,Unfortunately my business partner dropped the keyboard and it got a scratch on it. And I wasn't going to send it out to you like this.Would you like to wait for a replacement or take a refund? Sorry for any inconvenience.Thanks.
