I purchased a second hand pedestal type ash tray from ebay and it arrived damaged, in the form of a rather large crack. As you can understand the item is now worthless and will not function correctly. I believe the seller has taken "reasonable steps" to send it (cost around $25, in a box packed with news paper) but believe it had been damaged in transit (Aust post). The seller is sorry and does not accept returns, neither had insurance been applied. The seller has not offered anything bar an apology. I would like to know if there are any other avenues to pursue or am I stuck with a broken item?

how can you tell if you are on automatic bidding? How do you stop it?

Hi, I won an auction for a loius vuitton bag on the 9th, I paid immediately, I asked all the relevant questions prior to bidding, the postage was $45 and I asked why so high, they said the would refund the difference after postage. I paid over $700, then they stopped communicating. I saw the feedback was 100 %, but after no response from a couple of emails, re delivery etc, I read through their feedback & they have several negatives, all not good. I don't understand why their feedback was 100 % but aside from that, I feel like the are not going to send the bag! As this was a high priced item, I would have expected a response after payment, like ,'thanks' or whatever, but haven't heard a thing, it's now the 5th day. Iv'e requested their contact details but I bet they won't answer. What happens if they don't send, do they just keep my $700 bucks?? So disappointed, Thanks 🙂

I watched an item listed at a high price, no sale. Seller relisted at lower price, still no sale. Seller has relisted again tonight, I bid and I suspect the seller is bidding against me - what can I do about this?

I am asking for a friend who made her first purchase on Ebay. She bought a tablet which was dead on arrival, the screen was frozen. She returned the tablet COD to the seller who refused to accept it, Australia Post have received it back and she is expected to pay the cost of postage to collect a non functioning tablet. Paypal have agreed to refund the money however, she is not sure at this stage is they will refund the $25 if she has to collect it from the post office. Does anyone have any advice.

I submitted my offer through ebay and have received notificatio of the original buy it now price. Now seller has sent me a counter offer and increased the buy it now price- are they allowed to do this?

I have been in contact with the seller ever since I felt the item was taking too long to arrive and we corresponded frequently all the while the seller saying they would check up on the item and see what's going on. The tracking number has had zero status from the start which worries me. Now the time to claim is up and the seller still says they will do an insurance claim and try to get my money back. I've asked them today for a refund outright and am waiting for a reply. I feel that the seller was just placating me until the item expired and I had no insurance to fall back on. I hate to think that this is what happened but do I have any other options if the seller refuses to refund my money??

Does anyone no how a buyer becomes a "private listing - bidders' identities protected. i keep getting outbid by this. I have placed many bids on several bedding items from the same seller and every bid i place my bid its out bid by 'private listings', and no one else with a identity ever bids..is this a bit sus. thank you

I want to buy something off the eBay.com (United States) using my ebay.com.au (Australia) account. I tried creating a new account on the US site, however, when I was required to link my PayPal account and selecting Australia from the country I reside in, i was then redirected to eBay.com.au. Surely there must be a way to just use my Australian eBay account on the US site.

I bought a food dehydrator from ozskyway in January 2013. I used it about 10 times and then the fan motor burnt out. The item was sold with a 12 month warranty. I have tried in vain to get the seller to honour the warranty. How can I get a refund or exchange item?

Hi All I am searching for a particular item & there used to be on Ebay a section in which you could detail what you were looking for & a Seller could contact you & then list it for you I think it was called "Want It Now". Alternatively, you could look through a list of items that have not been listed & through Ebay you could contact the Seller stating your interest in that item. Does anyone kow if it still exists? Would really appreciate any help Thanks louiloui68

Hi all, on the advanced search page when I go to the location section I am able to tick the "only show items in" box but then the countries list does not appear. All boxes contain light grey wording that can not be accessed. This feature worked always except today.

Said Item was sent but I never received it after 20 days. Said will send again but I never received after another 20 days. Asked if I wanted money returned and I said yes. Money not returned and no reply to email. Now the Item listing is missing from my won folder. I do have Item number. Emails I noticed were sent outside of Ebay, and I paid using paypal with a debit card. What can I do now? Seems like they have dragged it out making me believe everything was cool so I wouldn't complain earlier.

I bid on a item and had planned to win it regardless of win price. However, ebay did not notify me that I had been outbid! Thget fore I didn't know I wasn't the highest bidder and i lost the auction! The other person bid within the last minute and because I wasn't notified I thought I was the high bidder all along til the end of the auction? Is this ment to happen? All other times I have bid on items if I've been outbid, ebay sends me an email saying bid again.. I'm really annoyed about this. Is there anything I can do?

I have won an auction and at checkout elected to pay via C.O.D as the option was offered by seller in the listing. (C.O.D on pickup only seller tells me now) Now the seller tells me they want payment via PayPal & wants me to remove the checkout. How do i do this so i can pay via PayPal? Thanks

I just purchased a car stero buy now price , $45 from china , but when i searched the model number its worth $320, after some more investagation i found the seller has no feed back and has only had memdership since may 2013 could this be a scam ?

The seller lied about the shipping date, lied about the item being in Hong Kong when it was in China (HK to AU 10 days, CN to AU 30 days), sent fraudulent tracking numbers, tried to stall so a Dispute could not be opened & delayed refund until he was forced to. 3 months after purchase, the item turns up as a registered parcel. I do not want or longer need the item! Do I have now have to pay for it to be returned to the seller who caused me so much inconvenience?

I'm watching an item an I have compared it with other similar listings. How can I find out the history of sales of similar items?

Bidded on an item and won the item. The seller then sends me an email saying that they arent selling me the item at the price I won it for. They had a ridiculous comment in the listing basically saying that if it didnt reach $350, they wouldnt be selling it. I replied to them that it was a shame as it was the second item in a week that hadnt gone through. The seller then offered to sell me the item for a higer amount than the winning bid to which I replied and said pass. Surely this is not an acceptable practice on ebay. Have since noted that the same seller at the moment has a couple of listings more or less saying the same thing again. Does this seller run under different rules to everyone else ss he seems to be a rule unto himself
