What i hate about e-bayers and paypal!

Well today the second person in a month complained they never received their item and Guess what?!?! Even though i have the original shipping receipt, Paypal says I never shipped it, Sides with the buyer and has refunded their money once again....Man, let me tell you, I love mailing stuff, paying for shipping, and then giving all the money and items to the buyer, What a great friggin' system....What ever happened to seller protection? Or is that justa scamt o make you feel good as they bend you over....

  • Two words: Delivery confirmation.
  • 2 safer words - Signature Confirmation. Paypal will try and dick you even with DC.
  • No shit? How can they dispute that you did your part of shipping the item with that? Its on the P.O at that point if they did not pay for insurance,Right?

    Actually, insurance is for the seller. If something is lost, only the seller can make a claim. Seller's have always just tried to make this the buyer's responsibility as it sounds logical. This is why you see a lot of manditory insurance auctions.



  • But if I can provide my half of the delivery confirmation ticket to paypal,How can they say I never shipped the item out?
  • tell ebay and paypal to kiss you.



    why you may ask?



    don't you like to be kissed when you're getting fucked image
  • Yeah i wrote them a very colorful e-mail... i'm sure someone will laugh reading it today at work.
  • PayPal and eBay only protect themselves. Not the seller.
  • They won't read your email, they don't pay anyone to read that stuff. But if it helps you vent image



    I've gone through my share of wrestling with them. Eventually you learn to work within their little cabal, or you don't accept them. If you don't accept them, I GUARANTEE you get fewer bids, payments will come in slower, your international payments will cost you more because I.M.O.s cost additional to cash at a bank, and you'll have more nonpaying bidders that are too lazy to buy a M.O. in the first place.



    Simply put, even after you're done with claims and forced refunds, you'll still be out ahead. But if it's the principle of the thing for you, that's fine. Make less, don't use Paypal. But i'm comfortable simply making more and getting randomly defrauded a few times a year. I'm making my house payments.

    The paper delivery confirmation and the paper usps receipts do not show the full address, so they are useless for paypal.  You could ship my package to 123 Any St, I won't get it, but the confirmation will show it was delivered.  Only the online shipping with confirmation will show the full address.  Still doesn't protect you if the buyer enters their address incorrectly, which happens far too often for me...
  • I say they are all scammers and/or idiots out to screw everyone else....they should be shot...
  • yeah ebay pisses me off. I sold somebody something that you could use like code type stuff. Well they used like 240/250 of the codes and then wanted there money back (sold them for $250). Still have not heard anything from paypal or ebay. Its dumb and they piss me off. They should make a time limit to report a claim. Like 30 days after they bought and or recieved it they can't try to get there money back.
  • I think there is a limit on how long.  With paypal, it's either 45 or 90 days (don't remember off the top of my head).
  • Don't ship to unconfirmed addresses, only ship to confirmed. Under $250 get delivery confirmation, over $250 get signature confirmation. If your a buyer I wouldn't wait over 30 days to file your complaint, you should have it in less than two weeks anyway unless it is coming from an international destination.
