Yes, there have been a lot of scams since Ebay put the buyers in the "driver's seat". Pisses me off and there is nothing we can do other than but insurance for expensive items and self insure for lower priced items.
irv _____ From: MoPo List [mailto:mopo-l@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU] On Behalf Of Henry Karp Sent: Tuesday, June 26, 2012 5:25 PM To: MoPo-L@LISTSERV.AMERICAN.EDU Subject: [MOPO] Bad taste E-Bay transaction -- any similar experiences I recently sold a moderately expensive poster on Ebay ($150). I shipped priority mail the next day. About a week later the buyer stated he hadn't received the poster and asked for a tracking number. I checked the USPS tracking information, which stated the poster had been delivered. I also confirmed that I had sent to the right address. When I offered the buyer replacement merchandise or a partial refund, he immediately threatened an EBay/paypal dispute and associated negative feedback. I basically punted at that point -- but am following up with the local post office to investigate what happened with the shipment. Any similar experiences?
