raidenradio Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Ditto. In past experiences, eBay has never done anything about any listings I reported to them. Just last week I reported an auction that had obvious shill bidding (Starting bid was at 0.99, I bid $5, within an hour someone bid exactly $4.99 and then gave up). Nothing was done.

plasma36 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 The problem with reporting to ebay is that the site is so huge that there are listings being reported constantly, and it's ebay's job to sort through what is serious and what isn't.

raidenradio Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 The best part is the guy doesn't respond to any emails. This is day 3 of contacting him and he doesn't respond to shit. Just like most of the complaints he has. Oh and eBay's customer service is shit. They would rather make you click around their Help pages for an hour trying to find something helpful than just put up something to send them a message. Nice phone number too, 5,000 extensions and different paths you have to guide your way through. 4,999 of them will just give you useless info and tell you try the Help site, one of them connects you to a person. I have yet to navigate this jungle successfully. So I'm just sitting here with my thumb up my ass while I get emails from eBay saying I need to pay this clown while I'm reporting the auction everyday only to get emails from eBay telling me "thank you for reporting this, we'll look into it. We appreciate your action. Oh and fucking pay this guy why aren't you paying this guy?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiefwahoo Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 That 26-35 day shipping doesn't have anything to do with his actual shipping options. Using the $20 option, you'll have the record in a week. It'd be just like buying it from the states. I buy stuff from Japanese sellers all the time. If it's worth $30 total to you, just pay for it. I think you should pay for it anyways, but I suppose that's besides the point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somethingvinyl Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Just don't pay for it. You get one non-payment strike. It's a warning; a slap on the wrist. Don't do anything crummy for 30 days and you'll be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
icecream Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 ugh that situation itself is fucked up how someone can not pay cause they don't want it (obviously this case is different) & get a slap on the wrist. yet if something sells for cheap & you don't want to sell it you get a negative feedback.

Guest vinyldoa Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I got comeback kid - turn it around - 1st press Blood Splatter (No Labels) /200 for $12.50 (the buyer agreed to $5 shipping instead of $10). http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rt=nc&nma=true&item=130488430987&si=b9LI8i33va6cELEd8ZiFZNNeZgc%253D&viewitem=&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT he had a clear red /300 that went for more than twice as much. weird lol http://cgi.ebay.com/Comeback-Kid-Turn-Around-RED-Bane-Honor-OOP-/130488432546?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item1e61b777a2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raidenradio Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 yeah, and sellers cant leave negative feedback anymore either which is fucking stupid. Well I don't have a lot of experience but my only negative feedback was from a seller who sold me In Flames Tokyo Showdown and the auction said it was "new, still wrapped." When it showed up it was unwrapped and looked like someone drove over it repeatedly. Half the cover had deteriorated to the white paper underneath. When I messaged the seller he said I could send it back and he would mail me a money order refund minus the shipping for the item and the shipping and cost of the money order. So basically, I could get a refund and end up losing money. I left him negative feedback and he responded by giving me negative feedback calling me a liar. It was real wierd.

booyahachieved Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Just don't pay for it. You get one non-payment strike. It's a warning; a slap on the wrist. Don't do anything crummy for 30 days and you'll be fine. I had some auctions that ended on Tuesday of last week and I still have this one bidder (that won 5 of my auctions) who hasn't paid his invoice. I sent him an updated invoice when the auctions ended to give him a break on shipping and I've heard nothing since. Repeat invoices go unpaid and messages are not returned. Hopefully five non-payment strikes being reported simultaneously gets him off his ass. I'm not really expecting eBay to do much of anything but give me back my final value fee.
