![]() I withdrew all money from my PalPal holding account before you could freeze it 'as you predictably did, which is now in negative balance. Well, I have news for you sunshine (I mean, all you luvverly jubberlies at eBay Resolution Centre). It seems a purely business one to me: they make more out of her bag resales ' resulting from screwing mugs like me, in all account, than they do out of my occasional attic clearances. No explanation as to why they arrived at that decision either. The result was that eBay Resolution Centre simply decided in the buyer's favour. Enough for the Resolution Centre to rule in my favour? I also pointed out that she had made no attempt to initially pay me and even before getting the item she'd' made no attempt to communicate with me to settle the matter before eBay were involved, no attempt to send the item back to me either. I wrote to eBay Resolution Centre explaining that I would not refund this buyer. Like hell.ĭid eBay agree she was a scammer? What with no communication either before or after the win no attempt to send the item back after request no attempt to question the item in the first place before leaving neutral feedback? All red flags? Of course, I was unable to feedback on her ghastly behaviour by leaving negative feedback, so she still has a glowing 100% positive feedback, runs a business off the back of attic clearers like me and tries to screw anyone when she realises that a profit is unlikely to materialise if she leaves honest positive feedback for properly described 'used' items based on adverts aimed at wearers not resellers.ĮBay Resolution Centre simply decided in the buyer's favour. Meanwhile I was to either compromise my reputation and/or lose my money and the bag too in order to help her do that. By exploiting eBay's BPP, she could still sell it at a reduced price from what she'd paid and still profit overall - with a refund too. She was a scammer trying to get a refund from me and keep the bag, which was probably sufficiently but accurately described as flawed enough not to make her a resale profit ' as she'd hoped she would do, but was every bit worth what she was willing to pay as a wearer of the item. I then pointed out to eBay Customer Services, in my case notes, that I was having none of it. The next thing I knew was she had escalated the complaint to the eBay Resolution Centre. ![]() she had escalated the complaint to the eBay Resolution Centre ![]() I wrote to this buyer about 10 times, via messaging, and I also asked her to return the item for examination, and awaited her response each time, which was. I then got an eBay message giving me a chance to settle things with the buyer (which translates to 'refund her' or else.) before she escalates the issue to Customer Services. A close examination - simply with a view to resell the bag immediately at a profit - might have meant no resale profit. The bag still looks great worn there are no holes, no unsightly marks on the inside or outside and any signs of wear are minimum and don't show up when the bag is worn. It is not for me to second guess buy-to-sell marketeers more scrupulous criterion for reselling at a profit. I put an honest advert up for any buyer intending to wear the bag themselves. I have plenty of satisfied buyers of my attic clearances, including a few since this saga began. After that, she decided, via eBay not direct to me, that she wanted a refund, which she hadn't asked for initially, which jibes with her neutral rather than negative feedback. It wasn't and messaged her as to why that was not so. I simply got unexpected Neutral Feedback from her, along with a message from eBay telling me that the buyer had told them that the item was misdescribed. She did soon after via PayPal and then the fun began.Īfter she received the item she made no complaint to me, using the eBay messaging system. ![]() So I contacted her and after getting no response at all, I reported her to eBay to prod her into paying me. She appeared to have ducked out of her obligation to honour the payment after changing her mind. But after winning the bag, she didn't pay for a good while. She also seemed, judging by her forum name, to be in the marketplace to re-sell the same brand bags as the one I was auctioning, simply as an occasional attic clearer. The buyer had not asked me questions or asked for more photos before bidding. Why don't I learn? I recently auctioned at 0.99 start price and then sold (or so I thought) for about £50 a wonderful used 12 year old The Bridge leather bag ' as photographed ' which looks great worn and still functions well. ![]()
