eBay

most (but not all) auction items that I open do not show the main image when I open the item in item description. The gallery image shows normally in list view, but does not display in item view. The image rectangle in the top left of the screen is either empty, or showing an icon.   Has anyone else had this happen? Any clues what the problem is? ... View more

Some of my previous eBay buyers have not left me any Feedback.  Although I have sent a nice email to them requesting that they do this, they still have not left any Feedback.  How can I get them to do this?  I want to increase my star rating, so every positive response helps!  Thanks!  ...

I have been threatened with having my account closed. The email says if I have problem I should contact ebay. I cannot find a way to contact ebay (I have tried "reply" to the email but that doesn't seem to work) I cannot find a way to contact the seller. I can't cancel the order, I can't pay for the order, I can't contact ebay to sort it out.   ... View more

I recently purchased a bottle of chanel perfume. The item didnt arrive in due time, after continually contacting seller. I had to opem a item not received case. The seller contacted me and said they would post that afternoon. When the item arrived, it was quickly identified as being fake. The ad clearly stated "Authentic", and when asked i was told by seller that it is Authentic. The Chanel brand letters were stuck on and peeled off. There was no etching on the glass bottle. The crimping near the neck is exposed. The quality simply is not there and the scent is questionable. I emailed the seller kindly explaining this and asked for a refund. He emailed me back saying "it is genuine, its just old stock from america, that they couldnt sell" The next day I took bottle to Chanel in NSW and had it authenticated as a fake. I also emailed this to seller. I have not heard back from seller. I contacted ebay, they said close item not received case and open item not as described case, however the resolution centre wont allow me to do this. I keep getting a message saying "you cannot open this case as you have already opened and closed this. What the......am very frustrated after several attempts to do this.....please help gahahaahah ... View more

I bought a sweater from a US seller, and took notice of the measurements in the description.  Yesterday the item arrived and it is much, much smaller than the description states (ie bust measurement is meant to be 47 inches, it is actually about 41, sleeve length is meant to be 18 inches, it is actually 16 at the longest part, 15 in other parts, making it far too short for me.  Also, far from being the plush mohair of the description, it is actually quite matted and flat from how it's been washed.  I have contacted the seller, who says it can't have been washed badly, as it would then be out of shape and faded (not true!) and has asked me to send photos showing the garment next to a tape measure, to prove what I'm saying.  I'm happy to do that, it sounds quite reasonable as she doesn't know if I'm trying to pull a swifty, and I have requested a full refund.  Now, my question is, can I push for a refund of the postage too?  I would never have bought the item if it had been properly described, and don't see why I should be out of pocket for return postage of a thick jumper to the US when it actually was not my fault in the slightest.  Do I have any rights with ebay?  Thanks in advance for all help. ...

I won an auction for a top two days ago. The ending price was 99c, plus $3.00 for postage.   I received an email this morning from the seller saying that the top has been sent, but they had to use a more expensive option, as their usual postage bags were out of stock. The seller then asked that when I receive the package, I look at how much the postage was, and send her the difference via PayPal.   I'm a little angry, I would have preferred if she just hadn't sent it today; I would rather have waited for an extra few days or however long it took. I'm sure this isn't allowed (from what I've gathered from other questions) but are there any specfic 'rules' I can point her towards? It just seems a little unfair ;( ... View more

I ordered a pair of shoes and made my paypal payment.  The seller hasn't claimed the payment or communicated with me.  It's been 15 days without the payment being claimed.   I'd like to request to mutual cancel this order but the seller isn't communicating.   If the seller doesn't claim payment or send the item am I perpetually obligated to leave my paypal payment up and unclaimed?   If they don't claim the payment am I stuck in limbo not being able to claim paypal protection but unable to claim not to have received the item because I technically haven't payed for it in some kafka-esque horror-drome??       Wat do Ebay? ...

I have been banned on Ebay after 'abusing' a seller after she abused me with some very colorful language.I was also reported to the NSW Police who have interviewed me and just brushed it off,BUT Ebay insist that I am banned and the at not even my wife is permitted to use OUR email adrress.Since when has a company been allowed to do this and wouldnt this be described as discrimination,or do Ebay have a law under themselves. I am intrigued.I have been involved with Ebay for 10 years,I had 1814 positive feedback,BUT because I used a threatening paragraph in a reply to a seller,the seller took it to heart (not thick skinned)and reported me.The NSW Police have just brushed it off but Ebay have banned both myself and my wife.

After accepting the buy it now price for a large wardrobe which requires pick-up, I've made 3 attempts via ebay's "Contact Seller" to arrange pick-up and also ask if they would prefer Paypal or payment on pick-up but have not had replies.  However, I received an invoice through my regular email inbox with a note from the seller asking how I would like to pay.  It seems they are not reading my messages so how else can I make contact?  Kerrie. ...

I have recently bought an item using mobile ebay and double and triple checked all the delivery dates, handling time etc to ensure it would be here by the 25th before bidding. Nothing ever said anything about handling time other than that seller ships within one day of receiving payment. I didn't have a card to pay with so had no choice but to pay by echeque, which cleared Wednesday. I messaged the seller and got a reply that they won't be able to post until the 31st of August and claims that it was noted in payment instructions which never came up on my phone. I have just checked the listing again and cannot find anywhere where this is stated. Is there anything I can do about this as if I cannot receive the item by the 25th I need the funds before then to try and find another identical (or at least similar) item. ... View more

I have made a claim, esculated to a dispute in which i won and had to return the product in order for a refund to occur with tracking information. I have done everything paypal has asked but the package was not accepted by the seller and is now en route back to me. I believe this is because the seller lied about there address as they stated they live in australia yet the package was sent from indonesia. I was wondering what happens now? I have done everything paypal has asked and am now starting to need the money from the refund. ... View more
