Humph... Ebay...


The last thing I bought off of Ebay was a set of 5 clothing items for $15.00, plus shipping. All were supposed to be stain, rip, hole, tear free in like-new condition. But, when they arrived, the 2 pairs of jeans had inch-long holes on the butt by the pockets! The other three items were very faded and a completely different size than what was listed.

I wrote the seller a note saying that I wanted to know what she was going to do to rectify the situation. I was polite, but very firm. I told her that she had completely misrepresented the items and was violating the auction rules. I stated that her account (of over 1200 sales) could be shut down if Ebay has to investigate the transaction. Within an hour, she had completely refunded my money with the shipping included. She had also had good feedback. Then, the same time my sale went through, she also had a few other remarks from people having problems.

Ebay can be wonderful, but it can also REALLY suck.
