THE OFFICIAL EBAY CRAZINESS THREAD


Recommended Posts

I've more or less become desensitized to the crazyness, however this is ridiculous... considering it is available from the label for $23.

Might be a bit off topic, but it has to do with eBay.

Just received a record with a sleeve grading of NM but came in all banged up barely VG. Of course the seller shipped in an envelope.

I can return it, but would rather ask for a partial refund. Hopefully the seller and I can agree on something. What I want to ask what's an appropriate amount to ask back given I paid $51? I was hoping for at least $7. Obviously I know this is something I should be discussing with the seller. But I just want to see if this has happened to anyone?

Honestly, I would say it depends on the severity of the banged up-edness. I once refunded a dude 5 bucks because he had a seam split. It wasn't there when I shipped it, but the USPS happens. I just felt bad unnecessarily. Whatever.

Because the dingbat used an envelope, I would straightup ask for at least $15, maybe they'll counter with 2/3rds and everyone is relatively happy. Seriously though, an envelope?!?

Wow..the response I got..."Oh my god, it wasn't like that when I shipped it! This was my sons who went to Afghanistan and never returned." She offered to refund at least $10. But damn, was not expecting that..kind of had a feeling It was from someone who doesn't deal with records but damn..

Not ebay, but Discogs. I thought I had managed to snag a copy of The Killers - Day & Age for $22 bucks, then the seller messages me saying that "two orders came in at the same time" so I thought someone else had beaten me to it, but then he just re-lists it for $114. Laaaaaame. 

I mean I actually kinda felt bad paying that little for it, I would've offered some extra cash honestly. But anyways, damn.. people should really double check their listings. I knew it was too good to be true :(

Not so much crazy as odd. This seller seems to have appeared recently to sell old Eels vinyl. Here's what they've sold:

I really want this record. I got carried away with the last one but still got outbid.

 

Apparently they're down to their last few copies: http://www.ebay.com/itm/eels-Electro-Shock-Blues-LP-Vinyl-Album-Original-Pressing-Unplayed-Blue-Disks-/321679624556?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ae599896c
