Just another way eBay profits even more on something they shouldn't be profitting on. Of course you can call them up every time (limit 3 per month I believe) and waste time with CS to get your minimal amount money back.

Most people (myself iincluded) don't bother.

When I did call them up about a year ago they said they were working on a way to automate these refunds. This made me laugh very heartily. In the interim they've pocketed millions no doubt.

It's no wonder more & more sellers are dtching Ebay & selling on FB with no fees!
