Have you ever been cheated on e bay ?

While I have over 3000 feedbacks on ebay I can't say that I personally have been cheated, but I can say that I see people cheating all too often.  The most common thing they do is set up a 2nd username and shill bid their own items to find out what someone is willing to pay, and then they retract their phony bid down to the level that maximises the real buyers bid.  Its sad.  Very sad that people will do this for a few bucks.\n\nWhat is worse to me is that some of these "dealer" types in sport cards will manipulate the price of cards higher.  They are willing to pay a few bucks in ebay fees to show the "value" of the card as something higher then it really is.  After a few manipulated auctions to themselves they release several into the ebay market and make their money off unsuspecting collectors.  And many of them are power sellers so eBay won't do much about them if anything.

I saw not one, but two souls for sale on eBay, years ago.\n\nOne was going for $0.50, next bid would have been $0.75. I really wanted to bid on it. He said it was clean, and virtually unused. You also got his body whenever he died, and 10% of his estate at that time.\n\nMy ex wouldn't let me bid! What a wet blanket!\n\nThe other one was soul only. I forget what it was going for.\n\nAs others have said, eBay removed the listings. Someone complained. Go figure.\n\nI almost bid on the autographed (Certified! Via genuine channeller!) picture of Jesus for my Mom, but I wasn't too sure she'd see the humor! :-))\n\nYOUR soul, however, would probably go for the whole $122.55!\n\nBefore I bid, what's the shipping?

Lots and lots of people, and Ebay does have investigators actively pursuing people for all sorts of misconduct on there.  I tried to sell a fairly expensive item and nobody bid high enough to make my reserve price.   One of the bidders on my item was contacted by someone saying they were my husband and made her a "second chance" offer to purchase the item.  She goes ahead and sends this unknown guy over $800 cash via Western Union.  After she doesn't hear anything from this guy for a couple days she finally, for the first time, contacts me.  What a mess.  I felt so bad for her and tried to help all I could.  She made too many mistakes and didn't verify who she was dealing with and she didn't follow rules set down by Ebay, so you can't really blame this one on Ebay.

Yes, well almost on e-bay.   I bought a printer, an expensive one for more than 800 dollars. Then the seller insisted on cash advance payment, \nHe would not accept C.O.D. , would not accept pay pal or credit card.\n\nI was afraid not to proceed with the purchase because of how it would effect my rating on e-bay\n\nThe next thing I knew the seller had been dropped from e-bay

Alot of people get ripped off on e-bay. Its better to buy from some other place.\n\nContact e-bay and complain if you think he is trying to ripp you off.\n\nAlso do what ping ponger said..

Every time I've started to get hooked, I'll get an item that I don't really need or an item that doesn't work as it is supposed to.  This is my wake-up call.  At this point, I go into a dry spell where I won't use e-bay for over 6 months.\n\nI'm currently in a dry spell after the shoes were Wide-width instead of Medium-width, and the DVD set was missing the 1st half hour.

I claimed through Ebay for an item I bought (was sent a broken item and buyer refused to accept it back long story that got quite nasty!) Use The Dispute Console for all correspondence so that they can see what is being said. it  took 8 months but I got back all but £50 of my money.\n\nGood Luck!

Although I've not sold it, I picked up the CD single of George Michael - Father Figure (1987), which I know is rare, for £1.\nI checked to see if anyone was bidding for the same on Ebay, and it went for £42.\nI've certainly picked up bargains in charity shops, so I'm sure dealers make money on Ebay.\nHowever, charity shops are getting wise to this and sometimes put the items on auction sites themselves.

Hi!Ive been in the same situation.I Ended up actually calling the seller and asking them,where my item was.I told them,I had already BEEN sent a payment to them and they should have got it by the time I sent it.I then consulted the rep. on Ebay.com and asked them if I was elidglible for a refund.They told me it has to be over $25.00.So if your order was over $25.00,then your elidglible.

No.\nNo!\nNo. No. No. No. No.\n\nNEVER EVER EVER use a money order to buy something on line. It is VERY unsafe. It's as safe as sending cash. You will never see that money again. Use paypal instead.\n\nThere was just a big article on MSN.com about a woman who bought a 2.5k dress on ebay, paid with a money order, and got scammed. Apparently that kind of fraud is skyrocketing because it's the hardest to trace and prosecute.
