Ebay buyers

[kazzafunk]

We've done this subject before but I am soooo angry. Sold my chicken coop last night at 10.00 and by 11 this morning the buyer tells me her mum and dad have suddenly appeared with one!

It's the flippant way she says - so I won't be needing it now!!!![:(!][:(!][:(!]

This sort of thing is why I don't like selling on Ebay! I'd report her as a non paying bidder.

I opened a resolution thingy and got the fee back. I shall be blocking the bitch!![:D]

and dont forget to leave the negitive feedback,as a non paying bidder and winner thats only fair,if she leaves you a negitive feedback as well ,ebay will remove it if you ask them because she was a non paying buyer

[Skippy]

A seller can't leave negative feedback for a buyer. The only way you can do this is to select the positive feedback option and leave negative wording. However if the buyer reports this it will be removed by Ebay and could be a black mark against the seller.

No win situation for sellers these days!

P.S Anyone want a chicken coop? Going cheep cheep!![:D]

[Skippy]

Precisely why I hardly ever sell on there now! Well that and the extortionate fees!

I did go through a stage of wanting to keep chickens but we've got a tiny garden and I'd be worried about all the foxes in out area.

you used to beable to leave negive feedback as a seller,shame that option is gone now

[Niobe]

I've done that recently for a couple of posters.

The one good thing is that once you have had a successful claim, they cannot leave any negative feedback on your site.

"negative positive" feedback is not allowed - eBay can and will remove it, if reported.
I do most of my selling on the various local buy/sell groups on Facebook these days - as it is free![:)]

[Niobe]

Jan's negative positive has never been removed. She will always do it. I think negative should be allowed if it is for a non paying bidder.

[angelrainbow]

It is only removed if reported. I agree both sides should be able to leave fair feedback.

mmm yes I had trouble this year selling my old car through ebay... a no payer and it took ages to be able to re-list. I finally was able to re-list but did in a different format only to find out later I shouldn't have done that as I then couldn't claim back the original listing cost (agh....). There are so many rules which seem to punish the innocent party. I am taking a break from ebay selling for a while - it takes ages to prepare, list, communicate with buyers, wrap, post and the fees are HUGE!
