I got my Harley custom bagger project done and listed it on Ebay with a buy it now or best offer. I got a best offer and didn't look close at the buyers feedback which was 0.... I accepted it.
My auction stated a deposit of $500 was due within 24 hrs. 3 emails and 48 hrs goes by and no response. I submit a non paying compliant. Ebay says I need to wait another 4 days to cancel the deal. In the mean time he gets an email from Ebay explaining he bought the bike and owes me the money.
He sends me 3 emails saying he doesn't know what Ebay and I are talking about and he didn't buy anything and calls me all kinds of names. He says he will come and cut off my balls for the trouble.
The next day he sends $1.00 to my Paypal account with a message of "Game on bro" and Ebay says I now have to ship the bike (which my listing said the buyer has to arrange shipping) because he "paid for it"...
I contact Ebay and they say he bought it. I explain he sent $1 and not the $500 and he still owes thousands and he sent me very nasty emails. So sorry Charlie said Ebay..... Ship him the bike or we will delete your account.
I refunded him the $1 and told him where to go.... I'm done with Ebay as they are nothing but a scam.
I also decided to sell 8 gold 1 oz coins on Ebay because I'm buying a house and needed $10k. I sold all 8 for $1,115 each thinking I made a good deal. Ebay charged me $20 for listing each one plus $115 final value fee FOR EACH ONE and Paypal charged me $36 each to take the money... So a $1,115.00 sale I get $944 plus it cost me $23 each to send and insure each one so I got screwed.... I could have taken them down to the local coin shop and gotten $1,099 each. I'm so done with Ebay it's not funny........ I have been a member since 1999 with over 1290 pos feedbacks and they treat me this way?
You want free shit just buy something on Ebay and when it arrives just contact Ebay and say it's not as described and Ebay will refund ALL of your money no questions asked. You will still have the item, your money and the seller gets screwed.... Ask me how I know...
I sold the complete inner and outer primary with the clutch, gears, chain and all parts off the Dog. When the guy got it he said it was "not as described" because it was missing a bolt..... ONE bolt!.... Ebay took all the money he paid out of my account, sent it to him and NEVER notified me to resolve the "problem" so he got it all for free and I got screwed....
Sorry just venting......
