Buyers with malicious intents...

Is it really worth selling your soul for a few dollars? Call me a pessimist but one particular buyer has given other sellers (most recent 20 feedbacks):



4 different sellers 4 negative feedbacks


Remainder of the 16 feedback: 5 revisions from something to positive.



20 purchases, 9 bad transactions all from different sellers with tens of thousands of feedback. I find this streak of badluck a bit hard to believe. If I was a buyer and I ran into this number of bad purchases I would stay well away from eBay.



Nope. This buyer is continuing buying on eBay. Combo goes something like: Buy. Neg. Forced refund. obtain item for free. repeat. Too difficult to do it face to face. So much easier over the net.



Some of you would know this buyer's name in just a couple of clicks. hint hint. Hopefully eBay's system are programed to spot outliers. Continuous negs and high ratio of feedback revision should raise flags for a trust and safety staff to review the account.



Happy shopping! I hope you folks don't run into a string of bad luck. Never had a problem buying off eBay myself ๐Ÿ™‚

I would have thought ebay would be a little worried about this sort of thing, it's like they don't even care, they have accepted them as a registered user.

Ebay won't do anything unless the Seller reports them.


 


I'd be on the phone to eBay Customer Service. There is a "Report a Member" option in the Contact Us section. Please use it.

On a lighter note - they have obviously taken the title of the first book purchased too seriously ๐Ÿ˜ฎ



I would expect that 'winning' at all costs is not mentioned in the tome!

Thank you for your post icollected. Another I will choose to  avoid.



Might give ebay a buzz too re this one, seems similar to an experience I had with a buyer yonks ago - after a few sellers and posters reported the feedback, the buyer was NARU'd in no time at all, with all negs left removed.
