Ever buy something from ebay and get a piece of crap?

What did you do?

I ordered an outside decorative flag that was all faded and frayed, not at all like it looked in the picture, and I got to keep it and my money back. what did you buy?

I bid for it and got it for $116. The LCD does not work and the stuff the buyer promised did not come with the camera which was wrapped in a newspaper and thrown in a cardboard box.

So far, no response from seller to my email.

eBay - so old

I complained to the seller, who did not reply. It wasn't worth the hassle of ebay's resolution process for a few bucks, but I left shitty feedback at the last minute when the seller couldn't retaliate.

It was just more hassle than it was worth for a used book that only cost a few dollars.

Thanks for that clarification. No wonder I bought a piece of crap. Dumb as a rock sometimes.

... a HF transceiver to be more specific, that was not in the condition it was represented to be in.

I wrote an email, and the seller took it back and paid to have it shipped back. I found another one for a few bucks less, it was mint.

The only time I've been burned on ebay was a few months ago I paid $13 for a pocket knife and never got it. I sent a couple emails, they always answered and said they send "another" one, but eventually the user disappeared from ebay.

Oh well.

a good ebay rating. So far, he hasn't emailed me back. Does anything ever go easy? Cripes, I envision weeks of negotiating, or losing my $$ and all I want is to take pictures of mountains and kitties. Shitfuck.

.. the problem with new people is that they can walk away, get a new Id and start over. I never deal with anyone less than 10-20 feedbacks.

... 15 is a reasonable number. If it were $500, that would have been too low, but don't blame yourself for this, I'd have done it too.

Once I bought over $1000 worth of silver bars from a guy that had only a handful of transactions. BUT - I called him and spoke on the phone first - and he sounded good and the deal went off fine.

through the seller first. upon failure of that through PayPal next. they won't help you because they're a bunch of crooks (I could rant forever about that) then through your credit card company as not as described. they will resolve it as long as you made a valid attempt to resolve with the seller and returned it or attempted to return it.

Meantime, I hate everyone....cept DU'rs

"...for only $15!!" or whatever, then he gets them and the necks are all warped, frets all buzzing, pegs busted, scratched, beat up messes where the pickups only 1/2 work x(

I still click on Work at Home ads thinking I'll find the "right one."

:hug: i do hear you though :hi:

:loveya:

the accessories were sub-grade bullshit. Emailed the seller 5 times, not a single response until I gave him a BIG negative rating, all I wanted was a charger that stayed connected to the cell phone so it would charge. He wanted to go throught arbitration with me and I refused to take my negative comments back. I guess the comments were ERASED.

Went throught 53 pages of feedback, my feedback is not there, I bought my phone Nov. 2005, NOTHING. Avoid this guy:

All this seller looks for is 100% positive feedback, he ALWAYS blames the buyer when something goes wrong

Another good one one was a seller selling original depression glass as original. All it was was reproduction bullshit at original depression glass prices

will avoid that seller!!!

The little rat has til noon tomorrow...then he's toast.

Then he quit eBay. He promised he would fill all of his orders but never did.

Asshole.

and I thought for sure I was going to get ripped off. I have only ordered 4 things from ebay, and got the goods, no surprises...
