“THERE ARE SCAM SELLERS ON EBAY, i brought an electrical item on ebay and the item arrived in poor condition broken and damaged i have been scammed out of my money and left with a broken item and out of pocket, ebay do not want to resolve they are more on the side of the seller, buyers have little protection, never buy an electrical item off ebay that is not from a retailer.”

“DO NOT USE EBAY TO SELL!!!! I used ebay to sell an item. Long story short the item was "returned" to me without my authorization. (They ended up sending it to the wrong address so I never got the item back) I was charged ebay "seller fees" despite not actually making a sale. When I questioned ebay they told me the case was closed and I was required to pay the seller fees. I spent over an hour conversing with them. Eventually I asked supervisor "emeric" if ethically he thought this was right. After doging the question he outright ended the chat! They will hang up on you and offer no help, they dont protect their buyers in any way. See photos below for proof of chat”

“It's been 5 days and despite several hours of time invested to reach eBay to resolve issues with our account, we've not been able to speak with a single customer service representative to resolve our issue. We've had orders stuck in Que that reflect customers have initiated payments but payments have not been received. We've lost a few orders now and eBay wants us to refund money we've never received. On top of it all, eBay has sent us an invoice for July and is charging us for orders we can't confirm payment on. Ebay is the worst company I've ever seen. No phone access, only automated, boilerplate email responses. Not even a chat room for christ sake. How the hell do these guys even stay in business. For the record PayPal is just as terrible. Between the two of them all they've done is take our money and cause problems.”

“Ebay protects the seller, not the buyer. I had a seller ship the wrong item. Then promised to send the correct item. Never got it... Then I had to jump through hoops just to get my money back as the seller never skips a beat. No bad review, no suspension, nothing. This POS kept on selling and EBAY smiles. NO, customer service DOES NOT care about you. I am stuck with 2 right now. "In stock in the USA" B.S. the tracking shows China. It' doesn't take over 2 months to ship across the lower 48 or 3 weeks with the other order. I ship globally EVERY day. The pandemic HAS NOT affected shipping at all. DO NOT accept this line of B.S. For all the good sellers on EBAY, yes, EBAY has many. You are losing customers because of EBAY and the way they protect the foreign sellers. The way they protect the cheats The way they are trying to protect their market share and profits. It's not a wonder why I shop with the O.E., Craigslist or any other options I have. No Amazon isn't one of them. They're worse!!!”

“There is no money back guarantee anymore. The estimated delivery times are longer now, but the money back guarantee limit is still short. When the estimated delivery is longer than the guarantee time window, you can't report that you didn't receive the item before the estimated time elapse, after that the garantee time is over, so you've lost your money.”

“They suspended me indefinitely for no reason after creating an account to buy a product. They have told me that there is ''risky activity'' in my account right after I purchased a product and refused to explain it any further even though I have just created the account. They also refused to give me a refund for my item and I have no clue if they will send it to me or not. I have been in contact with their customer service for two days and they have been blatantly rude even though all my emails were polite, they have no interest in solving my issue even though I have done nothing that breached their guidelines, apparently buying an item from their site is a risky activity, can't say I disagree at this point since I just lost my money for no justifiable reason at all. If you care about your money do not buy anything from this site because they frankly don't care for their customers.”

“After getting outbid on two products I made an offer on another and ebay tells me my account’s restricted and I can no longer bid or make offers, for 12 months apparently. They still haven’t emailed me about it or sent a message on their own platform.”

“They allow sellers to post dishonest delivery estimates and do not hold them to dispatch times pursuant with these estimates. Not only is this a fundamentally misleading business practice, but the process for complaining about it is labyrinthine, delayed, and easily manipulated by sellers. Moreover, it hidden in such a way as to make it deliberately difficult to find. This all conspires to form a theme of unethical and indefensible behaviour. In a world of myriad alternatives, buyers would be far better served avoiding Ebay and using one of their much more efficient, transparent, and honest competitors.”

“It has become almost unusable. Chinese sellers are now using bundlers and false addresses to send products. I have had multiple items sent to me this year that were the wrong item. My experiences with actual US sellers has been to get the right item, or a quick return lqbel and done. These issues with Chinese sellers always go: 1 - how about we give you a discount (how about you send me the item I paid for)?; 2 - Just mail it back to us at your expense (it says FREE return AND it was the wrong item. I ain't paying). Before it was a foreign address, so Ebay stepped in and I got my money. Now they use a bundler. They ship a bunch of stuff to a US address, the person in that address opens the bundle and distributes in the mail. Still the same wrong products, still the same difficult return. But now they used a loophole which makes it take longer for Ebay to resolve it with the hope the buyer will just give up. Well, I do give up. Not on getting my money back, on Ebay. I will pay a little more to use another site so as to avoid the deception currently tolerated on ebay.”

“I wish I could give zero stars. eBay is not a platform any should ever consider using as a seller. It’s great for buyers but not so much for sellers. I am currently waiting for mandatory 30 days since my last sale to go by and I will close my account and never buy or sell anything on eBay ever again. They don’t care about the sellers and only care about buyers. Their unfair policies allow buyers to scam sellers or to force them to pay for a return label even if they have it set to buyer pays for return shipping. All a seller has to say is the item is defective or not as distributed and eBay will just take them at their word, immediately accept the return on the seller’s behalf and charge them for the return label. What makes it worse is in some situations the buyer returns an empty box, rocks or whatever they want in order to keep the item and the seller is forced to pay for the buyer to ship them nothing at all or trash.”
