I am sick and tired of buying off sellers in AU stores that list there items location as in Australia when infact the item location is overseas and so is the seller and you end up with a very lenghty postage wait or not item at all or you end up with a WINIT tracking number that means squat to anyone as it does not track anything outside of China.
I want to see eBay crack down on these sellers for false advertising a location of there items when you are trying to by from within Australia only thinking you have brought local only to find out the seller falsey listed the items location.
I am dealing with one right now and seller has avoided the questions I have put to him/her of the real location of the item I brought after getting that WINIT tracking number the seller finally answered with an outright lie "It Come USA" clear not good with english at all and the item is clearly coming from China.
I want these sellers banned from listing on the AU site or forced to list there items real location for example CHINA.

Good luck on that should have just opened a ebay/paypal dispute to get your money back they even would have told you not to bother with return when it comes to china postage cost's workd for me.

I thought WINIT was a logistics company, not an ebay seller.
How do you think you are going to take a Chinese seller through the Australian Court system?
Don't hold your breath waiting for the seller to refund.....you did not use the ebay or paypal returns process so you have literally given the seller a gift.

No chance of a refund, you should have opened a case, and then they would have had to pay the return postage.
Taking someone in China to court? Not happening.

Oh, and while I'm at it........open a case for Item Not Received for the seller
you left the neutral for.
Or else you'll be back here complaining about losing your money on that transaction as well.

So, is there something wrong from wanting to buy from Aussie sellers?

I remember this question started being asked about 15 years ago, ebay are slow to act.

"If you buy something listed as local and it goes way past the due delivery dates & the sellers avoid questions, open an item not received claim, don't let them fob you off." Having just purchased an item from a seller that stated the item was in Aisutralia and then received one of these "Winit" tracking numbers...I was going to wait until the "Delivered by" date had passed and try and open an 'Item not received claim" But be assured that Ebays response will be "The tracking number shows the item is in transit" or so other such doubletalk. They won't care that hte item is listed as being in Australia. Ebay won't do anything to these Sellers because they get hundreds of thousands of dollars off them in fees. Like any global corporation Ebay is interested in one thing and one thing only....making moiney...not looking after customers.
