Why does e bay allow scammers to sell and buy even after they have been notified of these people,

i recently brought a cpap mask of a person, when i finally recieved it, to me it looked like somthing was od about it and asked if it was a fake, the seller jumped of his high hprse and said its brand new. however have since found out its not brand new and have caught this seller out on his many lies. He claims he is Authorised distributor and seller for Resmed  however Resmed has clarified this is not the case and there legal team will be in contact as will mine with this bogus seller. The mask came in his own packing and Reasmed informed me once taken out of Resmeds packaging it cannot be sold for health and hyhene reasons however e bay do not seem to care as long as they get there kick backs. He also reffusses to give me his ABN number or shop details why cause he isnt authorized to sell. He failed to also provide his ATGA compliance number as its e bays regulations as others who sell provide on there ads but again e bay does nothing instead they place our sales on the bottom end of advertising cause we complaimed as this illegal mask has caused more harm than good. Since e bay regulate medical items but do not keep to there own rules we will be taking e bay further more so now the ACCC is involved as to are the AFP. E bay customer service offshore do not care they are useless we should have our own customer care in Australia ---- however keep well clear of this bogus seller who sells 2nd hand mask he pinches of pts were he most likely works as a cleaner in a sleep clinic as his msgs gave him away to , his seller name is REMOVED and only saw it today another who apparently brought a brand new 1 as he claims also left neutral feedback the new mask is discoloured as new ones are like pearl colour, same reason i asked was it brand new as this liar claims

Save the paragraph.

 

I'm glad you did your due diligence. Too bad it was after the sale, rather than at the approriate time. I would think that if you are aware of the need for ATGA compliance numbers, and a seller doesn't provide one, then you would be fully aware, presale, that the seller is unlikely to be legit. So either you were sucked in by a too good to be true price, or you deliberately bought in order to have a cause to complain. Not good either way.

 

It's a bit hard to work out your stream of conscious, but I think you are also complaining that the items you sell (in a similar line?) are being penalised because you complained. This is unlikely as eBay minimise the use of people to run the site. They use bots for almost everything.

Maybe your position in search results (which vary according to individual potential buyers' previous searches, not what YOU see) might have something to do with you claiming how the buyer will get a bargain, or how you have no interest in the item, rather than proper descriptions.

 

That's how this particular (non) buyer views your listings, anyway.

Did you open a case for INAD to get a refund?

 

And you come here to warn others?    Very few will see your post.

 

You didn't leave any feedback for this seller and that's where people should see the warning.

 

Speaking of feedback.........do you chase your buyers for fb?

 

Cos I love your neutral.

 

Best neutral I've seen for yonks.

I viewed them as being really hard to read. The spelling errors look very unprofessional, not to mention the poor grammar and lack of punctuation. One listing even tells buyers to go and buy from Chinese sellers. No way I'd ever buy from them.

Did you read the feedback left for others Stawks? Makes for an interesting read. Clearly feedback is more important than the items they sell.

I WAS NOT AWARE UP UNTIL THE accc AND rESMED INFORMED ME ABOUT THIS, E BAY ALSO ALLOWS THE SALE OF OXYGEN WHICH THAT I KNOW REQUIRES A SPECIALISTS PRECRIPTION HOWEVER THERE STILL ALLOWING UNAWARE BUYERS TO BUY AND THERE UNAWARE THE SELLERS INFORMATION IS DECEIVING AS IF YOU DO NOT REQUIRE OXYGEN AND USE IT , THEN IT BREAKS DOWN YOUR ORGANS AND YOU DIE.

NEVER GOT TO LEAVE FEEDBACK, THE NEUTRAL WAS ANOTHER BUYER, I WAS ONLY INFORMED ON FRIDAY WITHOUT SPECIFIED ATGA NUMBER OR IF IN OTHER PACKAGING APART THAT OF RESMED ITS ILLEGAL TO SELL, HE CHANGED HIS AD RECENTLY TO SUIT HIM, HE ALSO CLAIMS TO BE AUTHORIZED BY RESMED BUT RESMED CONFIRMED TO MY SPECIALIST THAT IS NOT THE CASE

The feedback you have left for others is absolutely disgraceful. Smiley Mad

 

We are all members of eBay with many relying on it as the only source of income.

To give eBay a negative reputation with that kind of behaviour is atrocious. Smiley Mad

Kindly revoke your membership.
