Yet another buyer with total disregard of sellers

[maroubramagpies]

So not only are we hobby sellers having to pay ebay a percentage of each postage cost, we still get mucked around by those who bid and win, then don't honour their commitment. We waste time chasing them and go through the resolution process and get told the person will get a mark against them .. Big deal. They still cannot be given an honest reflective Feedback rating. I fired an email off this morning to Customer Support, but I know all I will get a generic response, but I am mad after seeing someone has 20 Positive Feedbacks 100% then read that the actual comments reveal a serial timewaster. I am not prepared to add to their Feedback as Positive then give negative comments. """Regarding member Xxxxxxxxxxxx . Feedback score is 100%. As you will see from the notes from sellers in the Feedback this person is notorious for not honouring a transaction. For sellers, however, there is no way to alert others. Sorry but your reporting system is 100% unfair to sellers: without sellers you would not have a business"""".

I think most Sellers would agree with you on that one. Just have great delight to wack em on your BBL & do a liitle Happy Dance. 🙂

Has been like this for years now.

eBay is a buyers market and the seller is insignificant.

Which is why you can open NPB dispute, close it and issue the nuisance with a strike.

More than one strike will see thier buying ability seriously curtailed, so long as sellers have the blanket blocks in place

As long as negative feedback for buyers did not prevent them bidding it served no purpose trhat to start stressfull **bleep** for tat retaliation. NPD strikes stop them from bidding as long as you have the filters in place.

i actually believe removing it was a good idea it taught me not to waste time bickering with non payers, and not to stress about whether some one who previously had negs was going to go sour on me. Serial offenders wouldn't get past my blocks.

You can't stop people not following through ona sale, but you can stop yourself stressing over it.
