A “Buy Now” transaction had the opportunity to purchase an additional accessory to the “Buy Now” item. The item has not been paid awaiting the Seller’s invoice reflecting the combined purchase. The Seller after a week has forwarded an email i.e. Your order has been amended and total owing is 193.95. No mention of the items sold. I’ve contacted the Seller requesting an invoice without a response. The Seller requested that payment via be as follows:- Simply log into your Pay Pal account and send a payment directly to (agrmachinery at gmail dot com - replace 'at' and 'dot' with the symbols.) Reference Comment (Items won on eBay): Pay Pal will ask you for the eBay item number - this allows the eBay item to be automatically marked as paid in most cases. Reference Comment (Other Items): Please include a description of the item you are paying for and the reference as your name or order number when completing the payment.   Nothing guarantees me that the Seller will honour the forwarding of both items. Am I asking too much? ... View more

Hi, I have commited to buy 2 very similar items from a UK seller. The listing originally read postage was 6 GBP with additional items at almost 3 GBP each. When I sent a request for a combined invoice the seller replied with an invoice with 18 GBP postage and a note saying :combined is heavier and would be more expensive sorry if that's a problem 🙂   the seller has also updated the listing now stating postage is 16 GBP with additional items 12 GBP each.   Aside from leaving the seller neg feedback when I receive my items is there any thing else I can do to hopefully stop this seller from repeating this underhanded behaviour in the future? ...

I have just hit the "Commit to Buy" buttons on two items from the same seller. As I went through the "Pay Now" procedure I was notified with a warning icon that this seller will not post to my Post Office box number. I sent a message to the seller to explain that because of my geographically isolated rural location I have no postal address other than the official Post Office where I have to travel to collect my mail. The seller replied, (quote) "So sorry about that  we dont use P.O box.  And because of ebay system . we just can use this shipping method." (end quote.) This is of no help to me at all. So, I am now committed to buy the items......right? ... View more

I won an auction for a smartphone that was advertised as being a 32GB device.  When it finally arrived, I discover it's only a 16GB item.  During the auction, I explicitly confirmed with the seller that the device was indeed 32GB, via the message system.  The seller has left photographs on the device of a pay advice slip from his employer. The information revealed identifies who the seller is, and where they work.  What 'appropriate' options do I have? ... View more

hi just a bit of advice, i purchased what i thought was a lush lovely teddy bear ear fleece jacket for my daughter, the seller stated that they were in my state and delivery should be 2-7 days after some time i let the seller know i did not receive and they stated it was on the way this went on for a several more weeks. i then had a suspicion the item was located overseas i inquired about it and the seller admitted the item was indeed being shipped from overseas.   this peeved me off a little as i felt it was dishonest and by the time the jacket would arrive most of winter would be done. but any way the damn thing did eventually arrive a few days ago and instead of being a lush jacket it looked like a matted bath rug a very poor, cheap version of the picture. it was truely pittiful. contacted the seller with my disappoinment and i received a terse reply that she would accept a return but it was my obligation to pay for the postage.   the postage will be 12.80. the item cost 23 plus 13 postage. so something that ends up costing me 48.80 i will get 23 back. is this fair? what do i do.?       ...

http://community.ebay.com.au/question/Selling-Ebay/Dispute-Turned-Nasty/600152011?#msg604936979   Hi there Above is the original dispute i had with this seller turned buyer. Im half pleased to say that i tried to cancel the transaction of her buying from me. She declined the cancelled transaction and left negative feedback and ebay removed it. The case about her not sending the jeans though. Ebay/paypal reviewed the case and refunded me the money for the jeans i havnt received. She now claims she sent them last week and is opening a case against me? can she do that. for a case that i opened against her. When she claimed to have sent the jeans last week. i asked her for receipt and she couldnt provide me with any. This woman has become my worst nightmare. I have reported her to ebay. But they obviously cant see what she is doing. Any advice? Should i just leave it to ebay? I cant see that she even really sent the jeans after this long. ... View more

I have used ebay for many years and have never had any problems. However I just won an auction for a laptop computer-which in the item description was listed as an "Ultrabook" . I have just reported the sellers new listing for the same product to ebay and they have removed it-so they have definately used a misleading description to attract buyers when doing a search. It had ultrabook, laptop, notebook, slim -all listed on the item title I have contacted the seller and he refuses to cancel the purchase until I pay 8% of the selling fee- $44 directly into his bank account. I have appealed to him to cancel the transaction via the resolution centre, so neither of us are out of pocket, but he is now not responding. It is too early to raise a dispute, but I know after 4 days he can list me as a non paying bidder-which is totally unfair as I have a 100% rating and have never not paid for an item. Does anyone have advice for me?? Thanks ... View more

I recently won an auction from an international seller. In the item description, it said that postage would be calculated once the auction had ended. After i won the auction, i contacted the seller, asking for a shipping quote. The seller responded the next day, congratulating me, and saying they'd take the item to the post office later that day to get a quote.   That was over a week ago, and the seller hasn't contacted me back, or responded to further messages i've sent them. What's my best course of action? ... View more

I brought a bag on ebay, the seller is in melbourne and I am in melbourne. I paid on the day the auction ended on the wednesday ,and emailed seller 3 days latter asking if posted, she wouldnt answer my emails, so i put in a dispute...all of a sudden she is answering emails, but said she wont send unless I cancel dispute as paypal is holding the money??? yet it wasnt refunded my end or put on hold. So i cancelled dispute and she said she would post on the Monday (5 days after I paid).The reason she said she had not posted was she is too BUSY!!!!! and I am being unreasonable. Today is Tuesday and bag has not arrived, yet I received items I purchased on saturday from a different seller from the other side of COUNTRY! yet this seller is in same city! She still has not marked it as posted,and i dont want to email her again as she is not nice. What should I do? 😞 ... View more

I was the winning bidder on an item, later realizing the seller does not offer shipping to my location. I have contacted the seller, apologized and asked if they would make an exception if I pay higher shipping fees. The seller responded just by saying "item does not ship to your location at present". I thanked them and asked to have my bid removed as I would not be able to receive the item. Nothing happened... Now I received a notice that an unpaid item case is opened against me. I will not pay for something that I will not receive. Where do I stand?? ... View more
