Why are sellers allowed to put fake Australian addresses on their seller info?

I have just made 2 purchases 1 had their address in China the other in Victoria Australia. The item from Victoria is going to take a minimum of 1 month to arrive. That is wrong. Either they don’t have what is advertised or the address is bogus. Either way it is of serious concern.

Re: Why are sellers allowed to put fake Australian addresses on their seller info?

Ebay seem to have two standards they apply to sellers.  One set of standards for dodgy sellers from the Chinese Region and anothe set for the rules for the sellers in Australia.

 

I literally cringe at what the Chinese sellers are allowed to get way with, with absolutely no censorship.  We poor buggers in Australia would get our selling accounts cancelled in a flash if we had anywhere near the violations of our Chinese counterparts.

 

Such is life (on EBay)

I asked ebay that today, 2+ years after your message here  🙂

All they wanted to do was make excuses for the offenders, wonder if Aussie post would have the same view...

You should spend less time contacting eBay & devote more time to look at seller feedback... this tells you where they are registered.

Some of the sellers you have bought from (and left negs for) are clearly shown as registered in China with poor feedback

Why buy from them?

 

You can see they are registered in China

You can see their feedback is in the toilet

Red dot after red dot

 

You buy from them anyway

 

Stop helping them stay in business and the complaining they are still in business

I suspect that member will end up on a few party lists here, with their love of the red dot. Not so much the love of the red dot, but the abusive messages they put there.
