eBay Reviews

I agree with Ebay, think of it this way, you buy something at the store, and want to return it - you can, It may not be new what your selling, but a person is still buying it, and may want to return it. Wait till you get hit with extra charges for shipping. For example your listing states $7.00 shipping, and when you purchase the postage it charges you $14.00. Now that a kicker!

Disgusting marketplace. Indians running the company into the ground. No protection for sellers, it is just too awful now. Lost more money than I made and was kicked off for no reason whatsoever after being a Powerseller for 16 years. I am pleased not to be affiliated with that scam site and sell on other sites and am back to making money without being ripped off.

They'll force you to accept it no matter what... Their policies are ridiculous. I have 14 day return policy and I had a buyer open a case for an item that sold over a month ago and they're forcing me to accept it. I have been using ebay for 15 years but this is ridiculous. After I clear out my current inventory I will be closing my accounts!

I've purchased 2 cars on ebay, one through a dealer (and had it shipped 1200 miles) and the other through a private seller and both transactions went fairly smooth. The private seller wanted me to pay him outside of ebay so he wouldn't be charged a fee but I insisted on conducting the transaction legitimately through ebay so it would protect both of us. I think we were leery of each other at first but it all worked out. I did buy the car sight unseen, flew to Chicago to pick it up and was very pleased with it so I was lucky. With that said, I did try to sell my boat on ebay but was bombarded with scammers so I sold it locally and will never try to sell anything expensive on ebay again. Trust nothing and nobody but your instincts.

Buying a car on eBay is tricky. This is not covered by the usual eBay guarantee so you're on your own.

I've been doing this for some time(12 years next month). HIERARCHY OF SELLER RATINGS: GROUP1.100% sellers with thousands of "SELLS"(No recent neutral transactions nor Very Recent Negatives: Believe it or not, sellers with 100% and ton of sells can also have a negative or negatives). The more positive sells the better. GROUP2.100% Sellers with 150+ "SELLS"(No recent neutral feedbacks). The more positives sells the better. This group typically doesn't have negatives. GROUP3. Then, Recent Feedbacks rule the day if a seller has a lot of them and all positives recently(Last 300 FEEDBACKS). GROUP4. There are some situations where you might want to give almost anyone a shot, if the item is cheap. I WOULD NOT DO OVERSEAS OR ITEMS THAT CAN BE FAKED FOR THOSE FALLING OUTSIDE OF THE 1ST 3 GROUPS, THOUGH. GROUP5. DESPITE WHAT YOU MAY BE THINKING, IF YOU BUY FROM THOSE WITH 100% FEEDBACK THAT HAVE LESS THAN 150 SELLER FEEDBACKS, THEN YOU MAY BE ASKING FOR TROUBLE. It is my theory that these people CAN leave a bad reputation at ebay(duplicate account) or somewhere else behind and seek a brand new start. I was scammed(DID NOT RECEIVE) by someone when I first started at ebay. If you buy from them, then see Group4. A LAST PIECE OF ADVICE: STAY IN GROUP1 WHEN BUYING LIFE CHANGING AMOUNTS. WHEN IT GETS INTO THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS, IT REQUIRES A SELLER THAT WOULD NEVER INTENTIONALLY CHEAT YOU. WE'RE TALKING SEVERAL THOUSANDS SELLER FEEDBACKS WITHOUT ERROR. AS THE PRICE GOES DOWN INTO THE HUNDREDS, YOU MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER GROUP2, AS WELL. IN THE LOW HUNDREDS, YOU MIGHT CONSIDER GROUP3, AS WELL. ALSO, BE NICE, AS SOME SELLERS CAN BE GREAT, MOODY, HAVE A LOT GOING, AND/OR VENGEFUL! PRAY TO THE CHRISTIAN GOD IN THE NAME OF JESUS THAT ALL WORKS OUT! I'M NOT SAYING THAT YOU WILL ALWAYS GET NOTHING FOR PAYING, THAT YOU WILL DEAL WITH BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE, ETC. WHEN YOU DO IT ANY OTHER WAY, BUT THIS WILL PRETTY MUCH PROVIDE HASSLE FREE EBAY BUYING.

Nothing about eBay is authentic. They don't know anything about the item selling on their site. They do not manage products. They only allow people to sell and buy and they collect all the financial benefits

Had a buyer purchase something from our store... the buyer wanted a refund and we agreed-ed but did not want to pay the return shipping for our measurements were correct.the buyer sent us threatening messages demanding the refund and wanted to keep our item. A case was opened and ebay ruled in our favor for the customer did not mail back our item.the case was closed and later on that night ebay marked our store below standard and restricted our sales... we list 2000 a month and ebay restricted our listings to 500.2 sales this month... 163 per month all the other months before this incident. After 20 calls talking to representatives absolutely nothing was resolved! All ebay can say to us is that a bad mistake was made, sorry and nothing can be done to rectify it.To top things off the buyer continued to harass us that even after the case was closed to get her to go away I refunded the money out of my own pocket.The buyer gets to keep the money and keep the item and we are left with a restricted store and a bad mark because of it. I have no respect for ebay... if you can sell your items somewhere else DO IT!

You can contact the seller and ask. Also look at their rating, if it's 99% then they will take care of you! For years, most of my shopping I do is from sellers off Ebay and mostly do great! Good luck!

There are better answers than mine above from others-I have a very negative attitude about eBay so my answers wouldn't help

Ive had a seller offer a partial refund for messing up my order. When i declined and wanted a full refund that Ebay "guarenteed" I got denied... even though the seller admitted he was wrong and was offering a partial refund... this company is complete garbage.

You really have to know what your doing when you shop anywhere, store, website, yard sell, etc.

They do so because as they told me, "they do not want to discourage or scare away buyers". And therefore you cannot post negative feedback however now what people (both buyers and sellers who have a bad experience) do is post negative comments in the positive area. Read this feedback carefully.
