I know you are, I believe you, I saw your feedback myself. I'm on your side. I also am trying to let our members know what eBay does. Jim

Sometimes I think ebay protects the sellers more than the buyers most of the time. (although I did get a refund) But still.... He now has 100% feedback again.

I've been on the other side of some strange stuff as a seller. If you file a claim with eBay and the seller refunds your money, you can't leave negative feedback-eBay will pull that feedback. I sold a bottle to a guy, the bottle was delivered, the guy filed a claim with eBay saying the bottle "wasn't as described" (clearly he had not read the part of the listing where I described the damage to the bottle), I refunded his money (it was a $3.99 Buy-It-Now listing) and he went ahead and left me negative feedback. eBay promptly removed that feedback because I had refunded the guy's money. The only way you are likely to get a negative feedback to stick these days is if the seller never responds to the claim on eBay and eBay themselves find in your favor. I would suggest always messaging sellers through eBay rather than calling them....that way if there is a dispute, everything is recorded such that eBay can look at the messages and sanction the seller.

Once again Brandon gives us clear insight of how it works and how to handle the situation. Excellent. Jim

Yeah, I had some scumbag screw me & I wanted to leave them negative bad. But since a transaction never actually took place ebay would not let me. That sucks, I was pissed off. LEON.

I recently believe a seller was trying to bid me up(shill bidding) I think its called. I don't know if I should report the person or not. It was a collection of dolls for my girlfriend. We were both furious!

Greetings everyone, this is Mahanoy1, let me explain this situation that this flint_illustrator is feeding you all. I had a medicine bottle listed on ebay for sale. The bottle sold to him for $15.00 was a common medicine bottle. The bottle was misplaced in box lots of medicine bottles that went to auction that same week as the listing was on ebay. I told him this and refunded his money immediately. He became extremely bilegerant in his emails. He then got my number from ebay and continued harassing me by calling me at least 5 times a day. Even at one point stating, "I will get my bottle from you I have friends up that way". He left nasty threatening feedback that was removed by ebay when I spoke to them reporting his harassment. It got to level that I reported him to the police who contacted the police department where he lives. I was present at the police station for this call. All this for a 15 dollar medicine bottle that he was refunded immediately. I have excellant ratings as both seller and buyer with ebay. This individual is the only 1 I had issue with like this. Just wanted you all to know my side of this story.
