[meteorite-list] Warning, Warning tri-ball34
If he won 173 auctions, how many didn't he win? Lots more, probably. Maybe Ebay itself is tri-ball34, attempting to drive up prices to increase fees. Paul Swartz this person has won in the last 30 days 173 auctions at many different sellers. The total amount of purchases in last 30 days amounts to nearly $9000 __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
[meteorite-list] Warning, Warning tri-ball34
Creep! It brings up the question - how frequently do Ebay sales fall through? I've sold a fair amount of non-meteorite things on Ebay and everyone paid. Anybody have any intel on this? cheers Paul Swartz He bid up so many of my items that I thought the meteorite market was recovering nicely. Now, that I have spent many hours opening 23 separate cases against him and undoing the damage, I see that the market is about the same. It is amazing what kind of chaos a single bidder can cause. __ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] Warning, Warning tri-ball34
I usually have a non-payer in about 1 out of every 250 sales. It's almost always someone who's new or has a very low number. I'd have to assume its someone who doesn't know how it all works, or is a kid, or occasionally its someone who initially was alright but had an unfortunate accident or such. Here's a famous example. a 5 year old uses buy-it-now to win a $1 million Transformers collection: http://www.pr-inside.com/year-old-canadian-boy-buys-million-r187248.htm I did see someone bid crazy for a short period of time in the fossil section of ebay a year or two ago, but based on their bidding pattern of big dinosaur fossils, fake fossils, and toys, I assumed it was a kid discovering his parent's ebay account. I don't think Tri-ball is ebay itself That would be considered shill bidding and is illegal in most states. -YvW On Mon, Dec 20, 2010 at 10:49 AM, valpar...@aol.com wrote: Creep!

Re: [meteorite-list] Warning, Warning tri-ball34
Besides blocking this clown, one can protect Buy It Now listings by requiring immediate payment. At least this way, someone can't win the item, end the listing, and then not pay. With an auction though, the only recourse is to block the bidder. I had a few problems with bidders like that when I was still selling on eBay. It's especially frustrating because you end up being charged for the listing fee and the final value fee, but no payment. You can't get the fees back until you invest more time (i.e. money) to file reports and complaints. It's a major PITA and part of the reason I quit selling there. But I must say, the problems I had were relatively minor and few compared to this tri-ball clown. I'm glad he never hit me like that. In most cases, I'd finally get paid, after weeks of emails and finally filing a complaint. Once the unpaid item case is filed, most AWOL buyers who still care about their eBay accounts will usually pay. If you still don't hear from them after filing the complaint, then block them with prejudice. Another thing that is good is posting the offender's eBay handle here so the other eBay sellers can be forewarned. It is obvious that this person is a chronic offender who is not going to stop their behavior.

Re: [meteorite-list] Warning, Warning tri-ball34
Hi Mike,
yes, I know.
But the shipping from Germany to the United States is very expensive.
And so do some of the buyers a few days to collect pieces.
That is absolutely ok.
Fortunately, I've blocked him early.
My auctions end almost every day.
One would not imagine that this person wins all the auctions of a full week.
... then good night Marie...

Hi Listers: I bid on a few of those items and I did't win one. Thought the bidder had deeper pockets than myself and was a real avid collector with the same collecting interests as myself. He beat me out on a few items just recently. I thought he was from Europe because all of his winning bids seem to arrive overnight. Starting to take the fun out of meteorite collecting.
