Hi, I've been sitting patiently waiting for Item #300390583484 to arrive. Today I went and checked an email I had received from the seller with the delivery confirmation number, and it shows as have been delivered on this past Thursday, 2/4! Problem is, I never got it. I always go out and collect my mail as soon as it arrives and there was no package on that day. Not to mention, my mail is delivered in the morning, not 1:49p.m. I have emailed the seller, but with it showing as being...

This is a first for me. I bid on an auction that ended 2/3, but I didn't win. A few days after the auction ended, I got a second chance offer because the winning bidder never paid. I accepted and paid immediately. The seller sent me a message today saying the winner paid this morning (6 days after auction ends, and after the seller has already recieved my payment) and so he was instead going to sell it to him. He then said to "remove my payment from paypal." So, do I file a claim for...

Hi, seller offered me 10 pcs. of 'Spy Camera' for a discount price $130. The problem is that 1 piece of these gadgets costs only around $10. I asked him that why the discount price is higher and his reply was very strange: "That means if you pay lower price the quality may less than the normal." I think, he lies...

I have a "what would you do" question... I recently purchased a bulk order of 50 items from a Chinese company. The items were described as "new". When I received them, the shipment was poorly packaged. This caused the individual boxes to be beat to heck. Of the 50 boxes, 42 of them were crushed, torn or otherwise ruined. I cannot use the packaging of this item and still sell the items as new. I contacted the seller and he initially told me to tell him the number of damaged items and...

On another ID I purchased a widget. The auction description misrepresented the item or the seller sent the incorrect item. To get my refund, the seller said I can reclose the bag, write refused on it, and drop it in a blue USPS box. The seller states they will refund when they receive the item back. Is this seller giving me the correct information to process a a refund? If the seller changes his mind and refuses to refund, will Paypal refund my money if I sent the item back like this?...

Look at this. Has anyone ever seen anything like this before? I haven't. I reported it as it doesn't seem exactly "kosher", but don't really understand it. What is it? Item #290399974673

I bought an item from a seller that listed USPS Priority Mail - and I paid over $7.00 for priority mail. Seller sent the item first class mail, it shows a weight of 5 ounces. There was no protective packaging to protect it from the elements, the item was just shoved into an envelope and mailed to me (clothing). Would you report the seller for charging for a delivery type that wasn't provided? I have emailed the seller to resolve the problem and am waiting to hear from them before taking...

More a question out of curiosity then a need for assistance. Got a bit of a snarky note from a about an item I won with a snipe bid. Paid as soon as I won an hour or so later Seller left FB. I’m guessing another bidder got my buying ID by checking the Seller FB on the item I won. With the inane “hidden bidder” system in place now, outside of researching FB on an auction that has ended, is there any other way to get the name of the winning bidder?
