“Bunch of scammers Shop Amazon”

Helpful Report

Posted 4 years ago

“Ebay is a joke trying to get your money back. I ordered 3 different items for my car from to different sellers and none of them were correct. I returned them and sent them pics of recipe from fedex on delivery date they received a month ago and the sellers claim they never received them. You call customer service and talk to someone in another country you can't understand and even with all your emails and evidence of return it don't help. Ebay and sellers are crooked. SHOP AT AMAZON AND SAVE YOURSELF MONEY AND HEADACHE. THEY TAKE CARE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS”

“I ordered a cigarette holder on 6/3/21, on Ebay.com, and the order supposedly shipped on 6/7/21, though there has been no movement on the order since 6/7/21. According to USPS.com, USPS never actually received the order. I was contacted by the store seller on 6/14/21, after repeatedly reaching out to them in order to be refunded for my order of a cigarette holder which never arrived. They claimed that they did not receive my first message, even though it looks as if the message went through just fine on my end, and I have a copy of the message in my messages within Ebay. They also claimed they would issue me a refund, though after checking my account, I don’t see that a refund has been processed. I feel as if I am now being given the run around by this seller and I would appreciate it if the Better Business Bureau would intervene and help me to receive a refund for this order, as I honestly do not believe that this seller intends to refund my money without intervention. I submitted a complaint to the Better Business Bureau, so we’ll see what happens there. Also, the seller also claimed that USPS lost my order, so, the order is definitely not going to arrive. Yet after the seller stated, in a message sent to me via Ebay, that USPS had supposedly lost my order, they still refuse to refund my money. Initially they were going to issue a refund to me for the order USPS supposedly “lost,” though after they saw that I left a negative review for them on their seller profile on Ebay, since their communication was so very poor and since they were just very rude in their messages to me, they informed me that they were no longer going to issue a refund to me for the lost order. This is most unprofessional, to initially state that you are going to issue a refund to a customer, and then to deny a customer a refund because they left you a bad review. They also claimed they were denying me a refund because my communication was not good. Which is ridiculous, all of my messages were very clear. They are denying me a refund because I left them a bad review, plain and simple. You don’t get to violate the terms of a sales agreement simply because a customer leaves you a negative review. If every buyer did this then Ebay would have a very bad reputation and customers would quit using their services and Ebay would go out of business. To make matters worse, when I try to get assistance through Ebay, I am also unable to get assistance as I keep getting a message that a tracking number has been provided, and therefore since the seller has provided a tracking number, Ebay will not intervene. Ebay really needs to make it easier to handle disputes. Simply because a tracking number has been provided, this does not mean that the order has not been lost and that a buyer will not be in need of further intervention from Ebay. Of course, I found no number for Ebay, so, I cannot even contact Ebay via a customer service number. Ebay also does not provide an email address, so, I cannot email them either. I have no other recourse but to open a Better Business Bureau Complaint if I ever want to receive a refund. Ebay really needs to revise their intervention process. As it stands, a seller can simply stall and manipulate the system and there is no real recourse that a customer has. All a seller has to do is to simply provide a tracking number and there is nothing a customer can do in order to receive a refund in the event their order is lost and the seller refuses to do the right thing and to issue a refund. Ebay makes it too easy for sellers to work the system. This is not really about the money, $6.84 is not a large sum of money. Though this is about the principle of the matter. This is about Ebay making it easy for sellers to work the system and how incredibly difficult it is to make a dispute through Ebay. This is about the many sellers on Ebay who take advantage of people. It’s wrong, just plain and simple.”

“I paid w/my bank. Seller CHOOSE how to ship, USPS who delivered to wrong street & showed delivered on my front porch. I spent 3 days via phones & USPS web site-was told that had been delivered to wrong street cause they use gps & knew where, but I had go to PO to get document. I had no way get there unless Uber & I’m already out $. I had USPS service request #, but eBay only sided w/seller. My 1st purchase on eBay & will never again. Only out $44.43 but the abusive seller kept taunting me w/messages and eBay don’t care. I used “Replacement” site or Amazon or WalMart even Etsy but never again will I even look on eBay site-I closed my short lived account. Common sense / if I HAD received and continue to dispute KNOWING USPS has gps info???????”

“Ebay is a horrible buying site. I've ordered products multiple times and have had issues everytime! The sellers on ebay are a joke. Sell junk & dont stand behind their products. Ive been fighting for almost 2 weeks to get a refund and when I checked the status today it says my case is closed and I did not get a refund! I have deleted the ebay app & will NEVER order from here again.”

“Horrible costumer service I've had a problem with one of my purchases for months now and eBay was quick to answer my first few mails, but when it looked liked it wasn't something that could be easily solved they've completely stopped replying to me, which is, ironically, one of the same problems I had with the buyer and was trying to fix. It's been over a month now ansd I've sent 4 emails with no answer despite their 48hr reply back policy. Simply awful.”

“I must agree with earlier posts. Ebay´s customer support was excellent (5 stars) until 1-2 years ago, especially the phone support. Nowadays, the phone numbers are all gone, and Ebay only offers chatbots as customer support. For example. I recently got scammed by one seller, so I tried to get help from Ebay to solve the issue. The phone numbers where no longer in use, so I tried email and chat. But, Ebay did nothing, and the chatbots could not assist in anyway. So, I paid 300 dollars for a product, and proof that that the package never arrived to my address (package tracking history). But still, Ebay did not ban the seller, nor "step in" as they did before. This is positive news for the competitors! :) Ebay´s dominance is definitely going to end soon. Consumers always wins in the end! :)”

“I have been on ebay since 1999. I believe that was only a couple of years into their existence. It wasn't perfect but it was generally user friendly. In the last 2 years all of that has changed. Different culture altogether - no service, lack of communication prior to systemic changes, dishonesty in consumer relations. Latest: A "reference number" on an online issue sent to higher levels for resolution, two days later, turns out to be the conversation id for the phone call! I suppose that it gets the seller off of the line without actually addressing, nor caring to address, the issue but why bother to have a help line? Many issues, many calls and NONE have resulted in any action. Dismissive of the people that make the system work - sellers and buyers - corporate America, isn't it great? I have made my last purchase on ebay and selling will also be in the rear view mirror. There are other better platforms”

“If instead of going to jail for breaking into someone’s house or robbing them because you want something just buy it on eBay and take it out of package they will side only with buyer so you will get your. Money back and whatever you want no matter what evidence buyer has your going to get a refund and your desired item period”

“It's been 90 days of trying to sell on eBay and 99.99 of the bids and sales are from corrupted or "unauthorized" user accounts or they are all fake, scammers, or hackers, they try to use PayPal and send fake emails. Also ebay takes hundreds of dollars in fees and cancelation fees even if you had to cancel due to fraudulent activity. Ebay should be shut down immediately and stop stealing people's hard earned money!!!”

“From today i leave ebay (BUYER FOR MORE… From today i leave ebay (BUYER FOR MORE THAN 6yrs) because they just told me i was not a good buyer because i was not folowing their policy. In the past years (3yrs back) i had fewer problems with ebay because 3/10 packages were missing or delay and i didn't even want to take refund or email the sellers. The past 2 years, i was 7/10 packages missing or dellay and when i mean dellay 6or more months. And a lot of them was bad quality, not as subscribe and a lot of mistakes were made or even damaged! Instead of giving a new policy for the buyers because we loose our money for scammers they ban the buyers for buying. I am not going to buy again because they change the policy good for sellers to sell more junk and fake packages and buyers say "thanks" or banned! They told me i was doing report or refund/return request sooner than the old days and i told them the truth. I am not raiting generaly but i realy feel so bad for ebay because the buyers will leave in sometime. More than 1000€ all this time!”

“Absolutely worst place to shop online ever! Worst customer service I have ever experienced! I honestly thought the customer service rep I had was a little girl! They will allow foreign sellers to rip off American buyers. Then they do more to protect the sellers then they do the buyers. If you should have choose to ignore the millions of negative reviews about eBay and go there whatever you do do not buy from magicspa! It is a rip off foreign company they will rip you off.”
