Stole 403$ from me and no refund is possible. They just told me after 2.5 months of aggravations and waiting to contact my credit card provider to resolve it with them. Unbelievable! Never will i deal with them again!

I've been an Ebayer for 22 years and I have an 100% feedback for those 22 years I never thought anything could disturb me ! until I reported an issue with a hair dye which had no English instructions. I was ignored and after that no feedback from them on my case .... with seller who is dishonest and tends to play by ebay rules. I finally realised they were on the sellers side etc etc. I've now left it I do miss it as it was a daily routine, it's not honest upfront and they just don't care for people like me all they want is profit Mar

Just another way Ebay allows buyers to defraud sellers
The way eBay kisses the buyer's a$$, I am shocked to see that there is only a 1.2 trust rating. In my 20 year experience with Ebay, I have had 3 occasions as a seller where, with eBay's assistance, the buyer totally scammed and screwed me. This is the latest scam where Kathy Fessel from Indiana purchased a 17th century hand painted Fenton milk glass lamp from me via Ebay. Upon receiving it, she claimed it was "shattered." If anyone knows milk glass, it doesn't "shatter". It could break in half but it is not the type of material to "shatter." I asked Kathy to send me photos of the supposed damage, she refused. She claimed that she did not open the package fully because she heard broken glass and didn't want broken glass in her house. Since the lamp was still inside the unopened box, she couldn't send me any photos of the lamp as proof of the supposed damage. She then filed a dispute with Ebay and her credit card company. We all know that when a buyer files a dispute with Ebay, Ebay will find in the buyers favor 100% of the time, no matter what! So, of course this case was no different, the buyer got a full refund and as a bonus got to KEEP the lamp. That's right, Ebay did not require that she send the alledged broken lamp back to me. Because the sale was over $300, I purchased insurance with USPS. Because I don't have the lamp and I don't have any photos of the supposed damage, I am screwed, I cannot make a damage claim and utilize the extra insurance that I paid for. Thanks Ebay for screwing me once again! Just another way Ebay allows buyers to defraud sellers.
Good company
Good company, but quite a bit of scammers on their platform
eBay is withholding $1k from my sales
eBay is withholding $1k from my sales. They have not verified my bank information for over two weeks and I’ve called three times and no solution has happened. They keep saying they will escalate it and nothing has been solved. I should have just gone to Etsy.
Ebay Removed My Honest Negative Seller Feedback
Ebay tells buyers to leave seller feedback for the benefit of other buyers, however, I left deserving negative feedback for a bad seller and Ebay removed the negative feedback! The integrity of EBay is questionable.
Goodbye
Goodbye
After years on selling on eBay , sales started declining massively , plus health condition prevented me to continue hunting for stock had to let go of my business. I did have a private account on which I sold around 20 things , I always kept this separated they forced me to change this to a business seller, saying I’m a business which I no longer am , I was a while back. But trust me I haven’t been one cause I simply can’t anymore. So if I had to upgrade my private account to a business one I would rather sell on an account that with +2000 good feedback decided to have ago , even with only very few bits to sell. Paid fees to insert sold nothing , decided to try vinted yesterday sold immediately. So yeah goodbye eBay . Making a private seller selling their own stuff as business when they clearly no longer a business was the last straw. As a buyer I loath searching for things on eBay this days. Getting bombarded with offers of things that I’m not interested only cause I clicked the listings?? A bit desperate move no?! I have disabled notifications on this a still get them! I will be no longer using eBay as a seller or a buyer .

As a customer from United States who has bought quite a few things—all from the United States—I have to say that while the costs and waiting times are long, everything has arrived impeccably.
Ebay should rename itself Scambay
Ebay should rename itself Scambay. This website is completely rife with fraud and ebay does basically nothing about it. If you get scammed on ebay they make you jump through hoops before returning your money. Ebay is not trustworthy and doesnt deserve your business. I recently closed my account after 25 years, because Ebay just gave me the fuggfinger after being scammed over 10 times on their website. So fugg you back Ebay...
The one action a day approach - how is this effective
So, I'd been updating the complex and not very helpful business onboarding system over three months and hadn't heard anything for two weeks so thought that was it. Got charged for the Store and advertising, then boom, account restricted and all listings stopped. It's the long weekend, so hours on the crappy bot and customer service and no one can say why account is restricted. Next few days same things hours on crappy bot and customer service, so I raise a formal compliant (which is as useful as a chocolate teapot), still can't explain restriction. Then come the action messages (in the middle of the night but you can't respond immediately as customer service hours are different even though it's all off-shore), where you do the one action and then have to wait a couple of days, and then get another one action, and have to wait a few days, still in this futile loop, still have no listings, still have frustrated customers, still getting charged for a service that doesn't exist. I can see now why so many people run personal accounts for business on eBay. Tempted to report this to ScamWatch as a subscription trap & to ACCC for deceptive conduct.

DO NOT SELL ON EBAY. FRAUD
I sold a $1300 item on ebay. A month later the buyer requested a return but mailed in a different item. Ebay noticed that and denied his refund. But the buyer went to his credit card bank and did a chargeback through ebay which was approved. Ebay reimbursed the scammer and demanded i reimburse ebay or they would hurt my credit score. Dont sell on ebay.
