SELLERS REFUSING TO SELL

[spinyeel]

sorry my item is worth more than this i am not selling for this price...

any one else getting emails like this 5 minutes after winning an auction.

this morning i received 2  " dont forget to pay for the items you agreed to purchase "  emails from ebay for items that i won and paid for which were cancelled by the seller shortly after.

does ebay send similar emails to sellers reminding them when they listed an item at auction they agreed to sell to the winning bidder.

its happening more and more and i have just about had enough to the point where i cant be bothered bidding any more

plus ebays new instant cancel the order feature has made it even easier.

what happened to an auction is a legally binding contract.

after 11 years of buying name one neg that didnt have a valid reason in the explanation, if sellers didnt continue to lie about the condition of second hand items , increase postage costs after the auction has ended, refuse to sell because it didnt sell for what they wanted, send hundreds of dollars worth of items from overseas to australia in paper bags instead of a decent box so they arrive undamaged there would be a lot less negatives..

You want cheap items from newbies/amateurs to re-sell at a profit,that is the risk you take on ebay.

I've bought a lot of items on 2 accounts (not for re-sale) & had only a couple of minor hassles,not requiring the neg gun.

You have been arounde ebay longer than i have,so you should know better.Look at the seller stats & decide if you want to risk buying from them.If it is a newby or casual seller,they don't know policy or how to price items.That's where you get your low cost items.How else would that many sellers be wrong or negligent to deserve so many negs.

To buy & re-sell on the same account has it's costs.

If all items you bought were so bad,i would be hesitant to buy them from you.That's what you are selling,right?I'm not being sh!tey,you get my point? I would avoid you as buyer or selle& i do like my nerdwear gamer stuff.Too much of a risk either way.

just a few very recent purchases

5 aquarium lights from hong kong 2 were broken , 1 was the wrong color and only 3 of the 5 arrived...

2 aquarium lights from melbourne both the wrong size were sent, told me i had to pay Return postage.

$200 of aquarium plants sent from sydney over half were missing took 2 weeks to get a refund.

set of 3 laser pointers 1 totally different not as per picture.

$300 plastic aquarium plants was told same quality as sold in stores, all rubbish

all were professional sellers and i left them all positives what feedback would you have left...

Just for the record,i may have cosidered giving a neg to your recent no.3 i think neg left.just for the guy's avi of him flexing in his undies *shudders*.

Seriously though,i look at fb before deciding who i want to buy from & rarely have problems.My son doesn't look at stats however & he has freakin problems & i know i should have spanked him more when he was a kid.He's ADHD & doesn't learn from bad experiences.Take from that what you will.

You buy cheap from sellers with under say 99.7% (depening on volume) & you may have a hassle.

Have a look at your account on toolhaus.If you were the seller looking at your negs,would you scream & run or quietly rock in the corner sobbing,scared of the spinyeel? Scarey name,scarey stats,dude.

Buyers don't so much care since they can only have +fb.

Sellers care about negs since it may make the difference in selling or being restricted/throttled/suspended.

I like the bloke who sells bar fridges,he has about ten or so going at once,all identicle,copy and paste add.When one doesn't go to a certain price it is cancelled due to an error in the listing,even thou it's the exact same listing in all cases.Go figure
