Just so you'll know--eBay keeps money on items you sell for 21 days. First they say they will release it when you hit $250 in sales--then you do and now it's 25 sales too! So you sell a $400 item--you SHIP it --and THEY KEEP THE MONEY FOR ALMOST A MONTH. Any fool knows the use of money IS money--and they are using yours! Also, YOU PAY THEM COMMISSION ON MONEY YOU SPEND ON SHIPPING!!

For some reason eBay changed my account name and the shipping address without my knowledge. Some random address was put in the shipping and when I purchased some things they were routed to an address I'd never heard of. My nickname was also changed to something I would have never done. However, I can't change it back because it is linked to my email. eBay insists they didn't do it and they can't fix it. It cost me extra to have an item rerouted to me and the other the seller just got back. Hours off the phone to eBay simply results in them telling me it was my fault and there is nothing they can do. Obviously it was a computer glitch but they refuse to take any responsibility. They also tried to blame PayPal which was functioning very well.

I placed a bid for a pair of boots, the seller contacted me a few days later to say she had listed the boots as the wrong size and wanted me to cancel my bid, I checked the options and there wasn't one to cancel, so I emailed her back to say I did not have that option. She waited a few days and emailed me again to say the eBay team had told her to contact me and get me to cancel the bid! Again I emailed her to say I did not have that option and she could cancel the item. The sale went through and payment taken and then I received an email stating I would be refunded reason being 'bidder asked to cancel bid'. Fair enough. I then received an email from the seller blaming me for the whole thing! I replied that she always had the option to cancel the item and should have done, Anyway I then received another email which was quite offensive, so I contact eBay.
They stated that the attitude shown by the seller (after reading the email chain) was not acceptable and they would deal with it. Then the seller gave me a positive rating and negative feedback! I gave her negative rating and feedback. When I looked the next day, my feedback had been deleted. So I contacted eBay who told me the seller had asked for my feedback to be deleted and they did, as a courtesy! The order was cancelled by the seller and had nothing to do with eBay and several processes had been bypassed or violated, which they would look into, but because the seller allowed the sale to go through, this sick **, now has my name, address and payment details and there is nothing I can do about it. I had been a member of eBay for years and now have cancel my account. THANK YOU EBAY FOR NONE OF YOUR HELP!!

Went to purchase an item off eBay and the eBay bonus bucks were not showing up correctly on my checkout screen. I called eBay and was assured that they would show up correctly after I paid for the item. Of course in typical fashion, they did not show up. I spent an hour on the phone and got nowhere with them. It wasn't about the money but it was the principle. I got 48 cents rather than $4.80. Not a big monetary amount but it is based on principle.

I have ordered EZ Lip car skirting (lip) through eBay on first week of January 2017. Until now I have send around 20 emails regarding this issue to the supplier and eBay. Just 3 or 4 times they have replied but their replies are same as making us fool. What can I do to get my money back? It is almost 11 months now since I paid for this item. Until now no one called me to collect the item or to ask about my location. I am from Abu Dhabi and I have checked with local postal office, but they do not have any idea about such an item. This is a reminder to all not to be cheated anymore by paying for EZ Lip.

eBay does not have electronic contact, so no proof of what was said. 1st purchase I specifically looked for seller with good reviews and in USA. Items expected in 1-2 weeks. I write them with my purchase said, “See you're in California hope I get it in a week”. No response. Then 2 weeks ago & no product. I view status...coming from China. Sent complaint to seller & eBay said, “Still want items”. No response from either. Wrote again, a month later asking when, where, what's the tracking number. NO RESPONSE AGAIN looked at status now saying by November 17th. Still no product (it's the 24th)... Wrote the seller & tried to email eBay. Only can call, no chat or email so I have a record.
Thru links of this order eBay said. “No refund as it's over 30 days! What? I can't return if damaged, not what was described or for WHATEVER - ASSUMING I EVER GET THEM. My 2nd purchase was last week - two items, two more sellers also checked its good reviews & in USA. Said items would be here on the 21st... Well it's the 24th & not here. No way to contact eBay except by phone, which I read is often non-USA people & I have difficulties with accents. But more importantly I would have NO RECORD of what's being told. I don't know if anyone reads this & can help, if they can contacts me please. But if it's only for others to know my dealings with eBay & guide them ANYWHERE but eBay, that will be a blessing.

Received permission from eBay to return an item. Followed their instructions with tracking and waited 1 month for return before contacting eBay. Item was apparently lost and since the seller from some province in China, never received the item, they will not refund my money. Never use eBay for returning without buying insurance. Horrible customer service and they won't protect buyers from overseas sellers.

I am very good about giving great reviews when it's great customer service. But, unfortunately Ebay has really made me do this, I don't understand how a company can have customers who continuously buy from them and when you need them when you have a problem with a purchase, plays games and give you the runaround. I had purchased a product, and yes it wasn't that expensive. But, it was mine and I deserve to get what I pay for. As I was saying, I purchased a product online from a seller on Ebay, it was at my doorstep days early, only to pick it up with it completely open at the top and the merchandise not in it. I immediately called them to see if they could track it and see what to do if something like this happens, which was the first time in many years I had experienced this situation.
They in the beginning said that they would see what happened and resolve my missing purchase, by contacting the seller and having them to send me another one, or issuing a refund. But to no avail they sided with the seller, even afer I found out and informed them, that the seller had used Amazon to sell products that they had, and Amazon told me that they don't advise Ebay sellers to do that, since there is no way to issue me a refund or even help me, that they just use a delivery service and that it would just track it to me, and if it was damaged and the package wasn't taped I would have to talk to Ebay about a refund. I will never shop with them again. Crazy thing about it is, I purchased six other items from all around the U.S that same time, last week and all of them came with a note from the seller thanking me for my purchase and were all taped up and secured and not fulfilled by another company other than who I thought I was purchasing from.

Signed up for an eBay account because I wanted to buy some items with gift cards, and thought that was the only way to do it. 20 minutes later I received an email stating that my account was suspended indefinitely, with no explanation as to why, and no info to contact them about it. After going to the eBay website and through about 10 steps, I finally got to talk to a customer service representative. She gave me the excuse that my account was suspended because a lot of people were signing up and they needed to verify my identity, and wanted me to answer a bunch of personal questions and submit to a background check. I told her no, that I had never encountered anything like this when trying to buy something online, that it was poor practice for them to force people to go through all that, and if it was the way they did business then I didn't ever want to buy or sell anything on eBay.
After she wouldn't stop talking, I hung up. She then called me back and I had to tell her everything all over again, as if she hadn't understood the first time. If eBay wanted to verify my identity, then why didn't they ask me when I signed up? Why didn't they send me an email saying that my account was temporarily suspended until verifying my identity, and give me some way to contact them? Very poor business practice, very poor customer service, ridiculous amount of things to do just to buy something online, very impersonal and invasive, I CHOOSE to be offended.

Spoke to a rep about a return today, as I was talking she said, "We can't talk at the same time." This is because she constantly kept speaking over me as I was trying to explain that I had already reached out to the seller. She was condescending after this and wanted to hurry up and get me off the phone.

eBay's customer service is a joke. Rude staff, long (over 30 minutes) waiting times.

I’ve bought many items over the past year from eBay and only ran into one issue where I was conned. But eBay backed me up and I got my money refunded. Other than that, I’ve had great service from sellers, fast response times, mostly quick shipping, and have had no major complaints with anyone. I have bought digital DVD codes from different sellers thinking it could be a scam but it was not. The codes worked great. I don’t have any issues with the service that eBay and its sellers provide.

I have proof I received a damaged item from an eBay seller. The seller ignored communication until I negative posted feedback. They suddenly became keen to resolve the dispute until they successfully had my feedback removed. They now can afford to ignore my emails again. Hardly surprising I hear you say. What is incredulous is that eBay claim to have investigated the feedback, without contacting me, before its removal for simply stating the truth in a respectful manner (IE nonabusive). It beggars belief that the feedback rating system lacks any integrity whatsoever and can be sorted in this fashion with eBay's support.

On October 31st, I received a package that I ordered. I had ordered the wrong thing so I sent it back on November 1st. 6 days later I called my bank to check on the refund, they don't have a record of it. Just the original purchase. I contact the seller at 10 am, Central Time. I get a response from the "U.S." seller 12 hours later stating that "am not have product".
The return went across town from where I live. I was told by the USPS they would have it the next day. So, I called eBay customer service and spoke to a very stupid woman who had no clue how to handle this. So I ask for a supervisor and she actually said "why". I told her to get me a supervisor, that took 3 minutes to get her to understand that I wanted her supervisor.
Over 15 minutes later I was told that there was not one available and they would call back. So at 10 pm, as I was just about to go to sleep because some people do this crazy thing called work, they called me back. The call was from a Utah number. I answered and got a woman who could barely speak English. Over the course of approximately 15 minutes I finally understood what she was saying and it was that eBay is a seller focused company and the actual customer means not one thing to them.
So now I am out the purchase price of the item and the return postage as well. When asked why I was called so late the lady told me that they are in the Philippines and do not know other time zones. This is not how to represent your company and treat the people who are actually trying to help them out by ordering from them. I may pay more but from now on, if I use an online shopping format I will use Amazon. Much more superior service and the care for the customer. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM EBAY, go somewhere else and get treated much better.

Been selling on eBay for 10+ years, no more!!! I sold an iMac monitor and glass in good working order on eBay, specified No Return. The buyer complained the monitor had spots, sent pictures that did not show any problems, asked to return the item. The listing said No Returns (esp. on electronics, never know what the buyer does). eBay accepted their appeal, approved the refund and instructed the buyer to return the item to me. The buyer only sent back the monitor, no glass (maybe that was the plan all along??). I appealed to eBay and they reversed the case in my favor. The problem is now getting reimbursed by eBay. They have already deducted the refund and are now charging me for return shipment and listing fee. What a circus over there. No more eBay for me...

I bought a Nexus Google phone and when I received it I saw it wasn't as described. The screen was very dim and my eyes hurt after a while trying to see what was there. I returned the phone, provided a tracking number and was informed I would be refunded in 7 days. The vendor never did, and eBay sided with him. I appealed their decision but they stood by their first one. No explanation whatsoever to me. I am very disappointed and really consider that their return policy isn't applied in some cases.

As a 20 year customer of eBay, I have to share two of my latest experiences. I have sold and purchased a substantial amount of product for myself as well as my businesses. My first and only complaint is that we sold an item "as is" "where is". The machine in question left our building in working order. The buyer opted not to come and see it in production and sent his relative to pick it up in a U-Haul truck. When the machine arrived at the buyer's location 380 miles away, he claimed it didn't work. Immediately sent a request to return the item and eBay approved it without any direct contact with me. eBay has lost us a customer and I can see by their ratings, they are losing more and more customers every day.

Been buying on eBay for 10 Years, sold an item and lost $100 because of terrible policy and customer service. Situation: I sold 16GB of RAM brand new and stated "no returns". Seller is not responsible for compatibility. After lengthy discussion between the buyer and me, clearly indicating that the computer component isn’t compatible with his computer. Regardless, I was not allowed to reject the return because buyer stated that it was defective. It is not. I've since received it, tested it, and am using it in my computer right now. I called eBay customer service who told me that because the buyer SAID it was defective, I can’t decline the return and advised me to issue a refund then make a claim with them if the item wasn't defective. They said there was nothing they can do until I refund and receive the item. Then, once I had done that, I could get protection from eBay.
I received the item, tested it, and sure enough. 100% working condition. I called eBay who told me that because I'm not a business that they can't offer me protection against return policy abuse. They also told me that because I "accepted" a return (which I was instructed to do) (and there was no option to decline the return) that it's even harder to get protection. Now, I'm out $60 for auctioning it off at a discount, $82 for the sale price of the item which has been taken from me, $6.99 for shipping, then an additional $2.75 for providing a return shipping label (which is mandatory). Now I have an item that is no longer new and not worth its true value and I'm out $151.94 for having used eBay. Oh wait, add another $2.75 for the listing fee from eBay. You'd think that because I've been a loyal buyer for 10 years that would count for something, but it doesn't.

There are probably many victims who have complained before, but there can never be enough warnings issued for one of eBay's biggest rip offs. Rather than ensure a speedy and economical service for international buyers, this shipping process is a cynical and nefarious way for eBay, in collusion with Pitney Bowes, to increase its profits on every sale using the system.
For those unaware of the system, the shipping process is NOT priority in any way. Items are dispatched using slow economy shipping at inflated and exorbitant rates. Full tracking is often not provided. Unnecessary or non-existent import charges are included whatever the cost of the item and DISCLOSED AFTER THE BUYER HAS AGREED TO BUY. Despite the posted conditions of this process being available to all buyers, there must be a severe doubt concerning their infringement on legal rights and, in some respects of the whole transaction, must be skirting the boundaries of out-and-out fraud. There really needs to be a much more public expos done to increase awareness of this deplorable practice.

I do not sell many things on eBay, but when I left my dental office, I had several large things to sell. This complaint is about the sale of my vacuum machine. It is a heavy piece of equipment, at over 150 lbs. I knew it would have to be tied onto a pallet. I saw the standard shipping methods on the site, but evidently did not see the drop-down that says Freight; contact seller for shipping information (or words to that effect). All the information that I filled out for standard shipping put the fee at about $200. The eBay listing said "buyer to pay shipping". The buyer paid that and the cost of the item. However, shortly after, I discovered that UPS wouldn't take anything as large as this, and it had to be shipped via a trucking company. A small panel truck came to get it, I signed their forms which basically said that they would find a trucking company to take it to Indiana. About 5 months after this, I received my first invoice from the trucking company, for $524.
I contacted eBay customer service. After finding out that the first clerk was unable to help, I was told that a supervisor would call "within the hour". 5 hours later, I was at the grocery store and the call came in. It was impossible for me to talk there, so she rescheduled the call for 9 AM today. It came at 1 PM when I was out of the house. She did leave a number to call back and a service request number. I called, and after going through my issues, was basically told that eBay is never going to help me to contact the buyer, nor will they pay the extra shipping.
I realize that I have some responsibility here, for not using this sales site enough to be facile with it. But I also feel that they, as a multi-billion dollar corporation should do a better job on their information to prevent things like this from happening. I am upset that I have to contact the buyer, and tell him to pay for the shipping as was stated in the listing. I expect to be more upset when he tells me to take a hike. But maybe he will be ethical, which doesn't vindicate eBay, Inc.

On October 10, 2017 I won an auction at eBay & was to make payment promptly & soon discovered eBay refuses to accept payment through my Visa debit card & wants me to sign up or open a PayPal account to accept my payment. eBay had no issues before accepting payment using the same Visa debit card which I used for 20 purchases in 2017 & as a guest in the previous years without signing up or opening a PayPal account until this last item which eBay now has opened a case against me for an unpaid item.

I have never heard of such absurd policy that a merchant like eBay is forcing or bullying a buyer to open a PayPal account to make payments. eBay should accept the payment I had been trying to make with my Visa debit card or do not complain or file a case against me for unpaid item, this is not on me, I am willing to pay what I owe but eBay is the one that created the problem by changing the rules on me.
Is it even legal for eBay to do this kind of business practice? It seems discriminatory to me that the US$ that comes out directly of my checking account debit card is being treated as inferior or of lesser value compared to the PayPal version. If eBay's goal is to lose good paying customers, then eBay should get a tap on the back for doing a successful & wonderful job. They are not hurting the buyer like me, I can take my business elsewhere where my disposable income are welcome but unfortunate to the hardworking sellers who has to pay eBay & PayPal for their services.

I sold a phone and on eBay and when the buyer received it he canceled the payment, I was ripped off by a Buyer and eBay representatives dont care and pretty much told me they cant help and I'm going to lose my money if the buyer doesnt decide to pay me. I know my business doesnt matter, I'm no one but it will be a cold day if I ever make any more business with eBay, I have removed all my listings and I'll sell somewhere else. If eBay is going to allow a criminal to get away with my merchandise and my money then they dont need my business, I really hoped that eBay couldve helped me resolve this issue, if not it's not like eBay is going to go bankrupt. Sellers should have a little more warranty than go file on IC3 and good luck. Not happy at all!! I highly recommend you never sell anything on any website that offers no protection to you!

I paid for an item I purchased on eBay on 9/16/2017. I sent several emails to the seller with no response. The shipping estimate (which was about a 2 week window) came and went and I had to wait another 3 days to file my money back guarantee claim. When I attempted to file my claim with eBay, which of course promises money back guarantee, the system said I had to send yet another email to the seller and wait 4 days for a response. If no response then eBay will step in. Except today is the 4th and I filed today. Their system now says I have to wait until the 11th for eBay to honor their contract with me, the buyer!
I called eBay and the women went on about how they have to file their guidelines. The problem is, their guidelines change each time you try to get them to honor their legally binding contract! First it was wait 3 days, then wait 4 days and then wait 7 days!! All that before eBay will lift a finger to honor their contract with me. By the time eBay wants to step in (and who even knows now what that might mean... more waiting most likely) it will be almost a month since I paid for my item and received absolutely no response, whatsoever, from the seller and no item. I will no longer purchase items on eBay and I will let others know that as well. -100 IF IT WAS ALLOWED. Ebay's behavior is as deceptive as the sellers has been.

Ebay decided to refund me the purchase money.
Original Review: Oct. 2, 2017
The eBay listing was for a used Sony Playstation 3 console. One photograph showed a painted unit. The description read: “I have a Ps3 slim 320gb comes with controller and cords and Need For Speed Shift works perfect.” As a side note, I have some reason to believe the seller is under 18 years of age, which violates eBay’s terms of service. I would be happy to list my reasoning if it is requested. Once item was purchased, I was informed that a ribbon cable was on order to repair the console. I was not informed beforehand that I was purchasing a broken console that was in the process of being repaired.
Upon receiving the item, it reeked with cigarette smoke and chemicals. The exterior is highly damaged with holes and channels cut into it. The electrical cord input was loose, and the eject and power buttons stick, as they are caked with some type of glue or paint. Upon examination I find insect husks and parts in some of the cracks and crevices. The hard drive is covered in insect feces consistent with those of mites.
At this point I remove the top cover for the purpose of checking the quality, and any other unspecified damage as well as providing photos. Several Phillips screws were removed and the Torx tamper proof screws were missing. Under the cover revealed a plethora of mite feces and cigarette tar on much of the surface of the electrical components, as well as full and partial insect exoskeletons as well as parts. No components under the cover were touched, and the console was immediately moved outside of my home for fear of an infestation transferring. This person denied a return, offered an exchange, told me not to contact him. I had opened a case file for a return and the case was moved to the status of the seller approving the return and creating a return label. However no label was sent to me. I stopped contacting the seller per their request.
I called eBay and explained the situation and was told that eBay would refund my money. I said “what happens if he does send the label, and I return the item. I want a refund; I do not want anything else from that seller as the first item was a health risk.” I was informed again, to send it back and eBay would refund me. I was told if the seller does not provide the label, eBay will provide further instruction after the third business day. During the weekend I receive 2 emails, on a Sunday evening, one that the seller had asked for eBay’s help, and another saying the case was closed that eBay made a final decision.
Why did I have to wait so long but the seller gets an answer immediately, and during non-business hours? Now, after my waiting the case was closed and only the person on the telephone got to hear my side of the story, who said I would be refunded. My pictures were never asked for while eBay was making their decision. The decision was ruled in favor of the seller because the item was "opened." However it was opened for the sole purpose of taking photos and "For the purpose of checking the quality, characteristics and functioning of the item." Per the eBay money back guarantee. The purchase also included a game (which had the feces in the case, along with a brown, gooey, liquidy substance which to the extent of my knowledge could just as well be mice urine) and a controller which I did not bother looking at nor telling eBay about as it was the least of my worries.

I purchased a streaming TV box from China in May. It was defective so I was told to send it back. They couldn't produce a return shipping label so I was told to ship it back and I would receive the money credited back to my PayPal account for the shipping cost because the seller was responsible. The seller was to reimburse me after receiving the broken item. This took over 30 days to return. Since early July I have been trying to get my shipping returned.
EBay says it's over 30 days so their product protection doesn't cover it and passes me on to PayPal. Paypal says it's over 30 days so their product protection no longer covers me and tells me eBay should be reimbursing me, they are passing the buck. What does a consumer do?

In short, the things not to purchase on ebay are large live plants and any newer Cabela's big man's Gore Tex rainwear. I am tied up in three protracted disputes as a buyer with a total of several hundred dollars in limbo. Two are orders for live blueberry plants. In each case the deliveries were refused due to damaged packaging. One of the sellers asked me to pay for half the shipping. Couldn't believe it.
I received a Cabela's rain bib described as 5x new. Received unsealed bib, tried it on and won't fit a 3x man, me. Cabela's has contracted their manufacturing to China and the sizes are 30-40% smaller. The seller was insulating and argumentative to boot. Seller demanded I pay return shipping and 15 percent restocking fee, amounting to a third of the paying price. Dumbfounded. A very annoying thing about all this is eBay and PayPal want to hide anything under dispute so it makes it hard to keep track. So if you're a big guy who wants to grow blueberries in the rain, stay away from ebay! I have had good experience buying and selling camera equipment and electronics, to be fair in my assessment.

We bought a product and want that product and eBay doesn't care if you get paid back or not as long as they get paid. We have all recommended they make it known. If sellers get paid they should deliver the product described or eat the cost as we do FOR FREE when taking our time away from business to package up and send back a product that is not what they listed or missing items from shipment.
1 in 50 items are not what they send and are missing items or packaged poorly and get ruined/parts lost in shipment. eBay ripped my friend off for a Harley at the tune of 15,000.00.

It makes me so upset to think that eBay gives false hope to letting sellers know that sellers are "protected" when selling on eBay. I've been selling on eBay for many years. I sold a MacBook air and shipped it out to the buyer who is located in Alabama. I shipped it with tracking and signature confirmation and although it's not mandatory for sellers to purchase additional insurance for the seller, I shipped it out anyways. Fast forward 2 weeks later, buyer opens a request requesting refund because it was never delivered. Tracking shows that it's just delayed, not lost. After immense investigation calling the buyer's USPS and distribution facility, USPS thinks the most logical explanation is that the label was somehow altered enough that the shipping address is unreadable. For packages with damaged labels, packages will be sent to another facility to be sorted out and it can take anywhere from 90-120 days to find it but that's not even guaranteed.
It's not the seller or buyer's fault but eBay immediately sided with the buyer and gave the full refund of almost $600 back to the buyer without even suggesting that the buyer wait it out a bit longer (because the package can actually be delayed). Then suggest to me that if for any reason the item gets delivered later, I can request the buyer to give me back the funds or return the MacBook. How incredibly STUPID of eBay to think that any person out there would give back the money if they basically received a free MacBook!!! I'm so turned off at how eBay's "escalation specialist" handled this situation.
Things I learned from eBay: Never ship to anyone living in rural Alabama. This buyer probably lives in some disgusting swamp and has a bad address. No wonder USPS says the package is delayed because they probably can't figure out which craphole you live in. eBay "escalation specialists" should probably figure out a different title for their career. You don't even do the BARE MINIMUM and just give back refunds to the buyer without even considering the seller's situation. I will be closing my eBay account after all these years of selling because I'm disgusted at their seller "protection" policy and will tell everyone what a horrific experience this was. Bye Felicia.

I have been shopping on eBay since 2000. In the beginning the climate felt quite different than now. I liked bidding in auctions as it challenged me to really think about what I was trying to buy, and what value it had for me. But monitoring auctions can be very time-consuming and especially those closing in the middle of the night. I was really happy when I found sniping software so that I didn't have to sit in front of my computer waiting for an auction to end.
In the early years I used eBay to find my hobby supplies which can be quite expensive, and of course my daughter went through the Beanie Baby craze. As she reached middle school she went from tomboy to wanting to dress designer style. And styles do change quickly. EBay afforded us the opportunity to buy at prices we could comfortably afford such as buying a $115.00 Baby Phat Satin Bomber Jacket for $35.00. I'm also not opposed to buying used clothing or shoes as long as they are in good condition. I bought name brand and designer clothing and accessories at a fraction of the retail price. I love antique porcelain both European and Asian. EBay was my hog heaven. I can't say that I had a lot of problems shopping on eBay as overall my experiences have been good. I've had a few transaction problems with sellers over the years, and for the most part was able to settle disputes satisfactorily. My interactions with eBay and Paypal's customer services have been good, and only in very few situations felt it could be handled differently.
The community boards on eBay have been very helpful in learning how to handle most of the situations that came up. There have been a lot of policy changes over the years some good, and some bad. Fraud seems to be increasing especially with buyers. It's important to learn how to minimize risk and loss. I don't buy much internationally anymore, and when I do they tend to be low-value items, and low weight because returns are pricey. The majority of non-deliveries and not as described were international purchases.
Overall, I still love shopping on eBay, but it does feel much more impersonal. The policy changes have also affected sellers in a negative way by creating tensions with the dispute process. Sellers cannot leave negative feedback which I see as a mistake and disadvantage. I feel that sellers should be permitted to comment when they aren't paid, or when there is clear evidence of a fraudulent return. It has become much more adversarial and a one size fits all return policy has insufficient protection for sellers in some cases. In the very least there should be a mechanism for appeals when a seller doesn't receive their merchandise back, or receives something significantly different, or their item is not returned in the same condition.
I think that most people selling on eBay are individuals and I feel eBay needs to consider that when making changes to policy. I don't see pushing sellers to have 30-day return policy is feasible because most can't afford to sit on the money for 30 days to make sure the customer is happy with their purchase. Fine for brick and mortar businesses that have capital funds and alternative revenue streams. However, as in any venue, you take precautions to protect yourself, and do provide quality service to avoid customer dissatisfaction.
Auctions can be fun and at times you get a great price. I love that eBay is still a place where you can find the unusual and rare. On the other side, fixed price sales can minimize exposure to buyers who don't pay by requiring immediate payment. If your seller doesn't deliver the buyer is protected by eBay's guarantees. Buyers also need to make sure that they have a safe place to receive packages as well. Many a package has gone missing after delivery so if you are purchasing a high-value item signature delivery minimizes the possibility of loss. The packages should be insured full value as well should it go missing or damaged. EBay is still a great place to have fun buying, and a unique website where almost anyone and everything can be sold.

I contacted seller about product and thereafter to give me 10$ back towards my 200$ purchase. I refused and had eBay step in. I was able to get full refund but eBay made it where I had to at shipping back to China. Nope. I kept the hair and just made due.

Let me just say, if you’re thinking about selling on eBay beware that they don't protect the sellers like they say they do. Both eBay and PayPal are for whom ever is paying the money and how much they will make, it’s not for what's right and wrong or as written that they protect the sellers from buyers, like for instance, a buyer, even after having the purchased item from the seller can come back several months later and complain they have issues with the items or just changed their mind and want a refund even when you as a seller disagree due to it clearly says per sellers return policy all sales are final. This is mandatory when listing an item to sell on eBay. You are stepped through a listing process that asks you about returns if you will accept or not.
eBay claims to protect the seller by their policy and procedures, you have to follow the rules that change or made unclear to the seller at first "like the fine print". You could say that because they are big businesses they get away with a lot. When listing an item the seller has to go through eBay's listing process and it’s confusing because they have a listing program you’re walked through to describe what you're selling and procedures that they want the sellers to follow each and every time you post an item.

Thanks to bad information given to me by a live person when I called eBay customer service I am now out almost $300 dollars and growing. I attempted to return a refurbished cell phone. I paid almost $12 to get a return shipping label that, on multiple computers I was unable to print. I contacted eBay regarding the issue and lost track of time while waiting for a response. Flash forward 30 days and I receive a message from eBay stating the seller received the item and a refund was issued though I hadn't even sent it back yet? I immediately call eBay and I'm told that is an automated message they send assuming everything has been taken care of. I ask what should I do. I explain the entire situation and I'm told not to worry about the 30 day return policy, I should mail the item back myself and call eBay back with the tracking number. I was told they would take care of it and even refund my original shipping I was unable to use.
I mailed the phone back splurging for 2 day, certified shipping. The phone was confirmed returned August 16 and still, today 09/03/2017 no refund. I call eBay again and I'm told, completely contrary to what I was originally told, eBay cannot help me and at this point it's between me and the seller. Now I'm out around $25 in shipping costs, I'm still paying interest to PayPal on a $250 dollar phone that I don't even possess and I'm at the mercy of the seller to either tell give me a refund or send me back a phone that I cannot use.
I'm a customer that has purchased almost $2500 in goods over the past 6 months and I'm told to pound sand? Had they told me from the first time I had called that they couldn't help that would be one thing but, here I am now left holding the bag because they gave me poor information. If it's eBay policy to jump over dollars to pick up dimes good luck with that business model. Competition is fierce in this arena of selling right now.

First off, every single customer service rep that I speak to (which is often because there are always hiccups) sounds the same. I feel like eBay just clones their workers like oompa loompas. Secondly, why is it that even for the simplest of issues they have to transfer me to somebody else (which again sounds like the same person) an average of 3 times each call? Everything takes FOREVER and they are always so rude and condescending.
I feel guilty because they make it sound like I am wasting their time for calling them and making do their job. When time comes around when eBay takes whatever percent they do of your sales, I really have such great disdain that I want to throw up thinking about giving these people a dime of my sales. I guess what I am trying to say is to use "Let It Go" app or Facebook to sell your items. You deal with people directly and nobody is going to take a percentage off the top. Ebay will be extinct within 5 years and I cannot wait for it. Thanks for always putting my panties in a knot, eBay.

This involves a few items purchased on eBay during the past several months. (I have been buying on eBay for years, and am usually pleased with items bought, prices, shipping times, and interactions with sellers. I will continue to buy from eBay.) My main problems with buying from eBay are that sellers may describe items incorrectly, send the wrong item, or quality of a manufactured item may be poor. For example, I ordered a pair of plain black espadrilles and received a pair in a leopard print. (Seller did give me a full refund.)
I ordered a woman's top by Adrienne Vittadini and received one by Adrianna Papell. (I decided to keep this item because it was too much trouble to return it.) I also bought an Arksen portable washing machine which malfunctioned on the first day it arrived and ceased to work completely within a week.

eBay - DO NOT CALL ME, I do not wish to speak with any of you after this experience. I used to get calls from Pierre Omidyar when there was an issue - that's how far back I go with eBay, these cust service reps were not even born then. After posting this review - below, I get a call from eBay Customer Service 9/1/17. (NOTHING I said during the message process on eBay gave me any indication that they cared to resolve this issue.) It took this review. They were very careful not to admit they may have been wrong (calling defective shoes "buyer's remorse", or suggesting I just resell them - which IMHO is totally dishonest) etc but once I posted my review, they refunded me anyway. I checked my PayPal balance and the refund was there.
Well after that I get ANOTHER message from them today 9/2/17 saying: 'The corrections team responded and unfortunately, because you filed a chargeback with PayPal (case id: **), we are unable to grant you your refund.' What is crazy is I was TOLD by the eBay customer support team that I should file for a refund through PayPal because they would not do anything about the issue. When I got the last email from them on 9/2/17 they had already issued the refund. I suppose now they are going to raid my PayPal account? They had to gall to suggest I read their policy? It appears their policy is a MESS.
How rude and how far down the Rabbit hole of bad customer support do you go??? I sincerely hope if they ever call me again I should get a written and documented APOLOGY because as a customer I do NOT deserve being treated this way. All I wanted to do was return shoes that were not the same length. Unfortunately I could not alter my right foot to use them. I currently have them up for sale for a dollar but unlike the unscrupulous person that sold them to me I define the lengths of each shoe. And no, no one has bid on them as you can imagine.

When the camera did not arrive I contacted EBAY though they did not receive item email. I received an email telling me to contact the seller. I received an email from him and the seller informed me that he only repairs cameras.
I do not believe that any of this mix-up was his fault. He was worried about getting his seller's fee back. Ebay's help site and customer service at this point was both worthless and non existent. No solution was given for the problem on their help site. There is no way to contact a customer service representative through email, chat or telephone on the Ebay site.

eBay is the last resort for finding replacements for favorite items. The prices are generally fair, but not all of them are as advertised. There are petty annoyances along with the low pricing. The bidding process can be tedious and usually drive the price up beyond the worth of the item - a great position for the seller. The Buy-It-Now option can be the most expedient and less expensive option, but often the shipping costs are ridiculously inflated to cover the low item cost. To score well on eBay, the buyer has to be informed and leave emotion out of the bidding process.
