Hello everyone.
After my parcel went into the liquidation pile at the Ebay Global Shipping Program facility at Erlanger KY I made it my mission to investigate the whole process in the dodgy practices. My findings are some what astonishing.
It will take too long to explain what I discovered however will make it as short as possible.
I worked on this issue for 3 months including late nights and 30 phone calls to the USA from Australia.
The Ebay facility (GSP) at Erlanger is run by a company owned by Pitney Bowes who sub contracts to another company called Elovations. It is impossible to call, email or gain access to the secure facility. I found out this as I had a person actually go there and is on appointment only.
The liquidated items are then sold to a "company" called 8ten industries, Cass City Michigan who appears to be parts outlet however has another side business (bwretail) that on-sells the liquidated items and other bits and pieces.
The CEO (Chris Ball) was kind enough to reply and offered assistance should that happen again.
The seller name on ebay is 8ten1944 so if you follow that seller if you have lost anything.
It was pure fate that I managed to find my item that was relisted with the Ebay again by the seller I mentioned. I used a web site called pickclick and used the exact listing name used on ebay. It appeared using the same images and description. I had a friend in the USA purchase it again and had it sent to his address. I had a win but paid $100 more that the original listing!!
The item went into liquidation mid February 2021 and was relisted mid May 2021. So if you keep searching those web sites you will find it/ What a scam!!!!!
Was unable to include links however I am happy to send on request.
Your welcome....
