I have a favourite seller and twice I have not received my items I purchased and also once he left an item out of my purchases. I have requested that all my future purchases now be sent by registered mail at my expense. I will now challenge him regarding the last lot of missing items but I am scared he may block me as a buyer. What do I do?

A question, recently, last week I was watching an item starting $50 OR BIN $700 but open to offers. Had a couple of questions back and forth seller was very effecient in replies. I was going to make an offer but then noticed there was a bid and thought Oh well, just wait the auction out then a couple of days later I noticed it had ended and relisted at a higher price! I asked why it had ended even though someone had bit on it and I received back a reply saying a similar item in SA sold for more money and she thought she would end it and relist at a higher price plus, she did not realise that once a bid was placed she could not accept offers. Is this common practice? but I note this is the first time this member has sold anything. This happended twice to me latley, no offence but are sellers getting too greedy as I note when some items are BIN and do not sell they are relisted at a higher price.

I have recently purchased a number of small items on ebay after conducting detailed comparisons with local stores in my vicinity and other sellers on ebay based on combined shipping and item cost. my initial comparisons saw the ebay total $61.07 and the nearest local store $106.90. i took the plunge and started buying all items on ebay. but i started noticing that after i selected buy it now, the price would change considerably please explain why? also when asked to commit to buy i am not shown the final price in AUD which seems like a leap of faith to me when i cannot see the actual amount that i am paying and commit to buy is non negotiable once selected, why is the total committed price not displayed in the local currency?. by the time i have reached paypal i see that the price has increased yet again can you please explain this? is this an fee applied associated with the use of Paypal to purchase? obviously you are not paypal so i am not looking for a finite answer to this question however some indication of what may be occuring here would be appreciated. in summary the items i purchased amounted to $102.34 just shy of the local store price and at that i would have made a concious decision to purchase locally in the first place and support a local buisness. this is a $41.27 difference from the cost I originally expected to pay on Ebay and I cannot but think that i have been misled from the outset on the real cost of these items- please provide explantaion on how this will be dealt with.

Hi Advice would be much appreciated. I bought an item from a seller in the UK who unfortunately has poor communication skills, item was posted on 24/6. i still have not received the item and worse still when I click on the tracking info it tells me that it has passed to the Russian Federation (comforting!!) for delivery there. I contacted the seller who produces a receipt that sepcifies the tracking number as he entered into ebay and also that it is for delivery to Aus. I have checked with my local post offices who have no such package waiting for me and Aus Post (over the phone) advise that that package has not come to Aus as if it had, even with that tracking number, they would know. This seller is slightly dodgy in my view, he has done a few strange things during the course of the transaction. What would you do in this situation?? I have spent a total of a miniscule amount over $600. I paid via paypal, am I covered?? Interesting situation but I hope that it doe snto end up being a costly one for me! Thanks.

Okay, so I bought some DVD players for my wife's car. I was told they were brand new, however when they arrived they were not in original packaging. I took them to a place to have them professionally installed to be told they "just don't work." I have contacted the seller and she is now saying they have been in her shed for a year and she bought them through scoupon (or something similar.) She's basically saying it's up to me to chase up. I have asked her several times for a refund and stated that I would send back the item at my own cost and she is dismissing me. What can I do? I want my $200 back.

The slide for your price scale is a real pain on an ipad bring back the type in option for price range searches or Gum tree will look more atractive.

Does anyone know how to get in touch with ebay, either by phone or email, I don't care which. I would like to talk to them about a seller who is very suspicious.

Why do sellers have private listings on Ebay ? when bidders info is protected anyway . is it a easy way of bumping up the price with mates ?

I purchased a used Apple Airport Time Capsule in May this year — unfortunately it died a couple of weeks ago. I paid for the item via PayPal. Am I able to ask for a refund through eBay?

I just make a payment for a replica belt. It was my mistake. On the description the seller claim that is an authentic but after I checked with the designer expert, she told me that the item is fake. I contact the seller few times but he/she didn't reply my messages. What should i do now?

eddiegrows

It doesn't seem fair that an ebay store can falsely advertise an item as in "good condition" in their advertisement, yet in reality it is broken. I would have thought that there was some sort of accountability which would apply here. We contacted the seller and told them we were not satisfied and we requested a refund. They were not interested. The item was not damaged in transit but was simply described deceptively. Is there anything that we can do? Cheers.

I recently bought an item which was pick-up only and paid it as COD. I finally got a reply from the seller and they would rather I add funds through paypal. Now that it's said to be paid for I can't go through normal channels. How can I change that

I won an auction and requested pick up today. Asked seller to forward address for pick up after he stated had to be at 4.30pm. He has made no contact since and we live about 2 hrs from pickup suburb. Can I get the address from somewhere on Ebay or we will have to cancel purchase
