What's Bugging You Today? Volume 3, Part 1

“I accidently sent it to the wrong place, but dont worry it’s being forwarded to you. I apologize profusely for the mistake and delay.”

That's negative feedback and complaining and reversing the money from a normie.

[Some Stupid Japanese Name]

I guess that’s why I hardly sell on ebay.
Not that I don’t believe you guys, but if it’s so hard running an up and up business on eBay for fear of shifty buyers why are there so many shifty sellers still? Over the last few months I’ve received a ps2 that didnt work, a transfer case that was so rusted and malformed it couldnt be used, a tv remote that didnt work, and several disc based games from several sellers that were described as like new but were so fucked up they wouldnt load. In all cases I was able to return/ get my money back. How do these assholes make money if they have assholes buyers fucking them on good stuff and have to refund when they’re the ones doing the fucking?

shitty buyers are probably not buying remotes or ps2s from japan.

The other stuff, probably just pure volume

eBay puts the onus on the seller for good reason.

nah

[Diff-chan]

eBay hangs sellers out to dry because they wanted to become a full online store without taking on the inventory risk.

[Bacon McShig]

Matches up pretty poetically with the philosophy of sellers that clean their local retailers out of whatever hot product to flip on eBay.

[Fe 26]

Those are rarely the people that get fucked. In fact, I would say ebay promotes flipping. Spoiled shitty sellers expect brand new products as if they come from a big retailer.

[Melf]

I actually have better luck with eBay than Amazon. Lately, Amazon takes a week to ship my packages, which in turn take up to a month to get here. I thought it was due to the typical "PR is the post office's anus" problems, but apparently, I'm not alone. WTF do I have Prime for? 3rd party sellers are actually shipping faster than Amazon itself, and I don't need to dish out $100 a year for it.

[Fe 26]

If it makes you feel better, the people that pack your boxes make about 20k a year.
