Hello all, Welcome to the Ask Griff Discussion Board thread for December 2009. I'm Jim Griffith (known to most as Griff). I have been an eBay buyer, seller and employee since 1996. You can learn more about me on my About Me page. It's been an extremely busy quarter for all of us here inside eBay, yours truly included. As a result, I have had less time to devote to Ask Griff as I did earlier this year. I don't expect this to change in the next few months. To that end, I have altered some...

It is very important that all sellers with non-paying bidders file unpaid item disputes if payment is not received from buyers. Since negative feedback can no longer be left for buyers who do not pay to warn other sellers, filing an unpaid item dispute has become more import than ever. Filing a dispute and then closing it eight days later will give the buyer a strike towards suspension and is the only way sellers have to protect each other from bad buyers. It is also important to file...

I sold a phone that was in fine condition when I last used it. The buyer claims that he gets a message "poor signal strength" when he tried to activate it. I suggested that he contact the carrier. My listing said no refunds. In the past, I have refunded items even when I doubted what the buyer said. In this case, I am not dsposed to return the money when the signal strength problem is not my issue. I indicated the phone was used & was replaced since I got a new phome from my carrier....

I got this message today, and I am needing some advice/help. I hope that the Item will show up, but if not, here is another link. Link What the buyer wrote is below, and let me tell you, my hear sank as soon as I read this. I thought that I had given a clear description, but maybe not. I always give measurements in my clothing listings because I know everybody's figure is different, so that they may check measurements and go by those, instead of size tag alone. I guess I thought junior and...

EBay Inc.'s giant online marketplace, where traffic has slumped in recent years, lost shoppers every week since the end of November compared to the same period of last year, according to Compete Inc. EBay, which has cut back on coupons this year to instead focus on a multimedia marketing campaign and cross-country mobile shopping display, declined to comment. But some of the largest merchants on eBay.com reported a pickup, especially last week. ChannelAdvisor Corp., which helps brands...

Has anyone had any trouble with a package shipped that took more than ten days to get to its destination. Shipped out a package to buyer in Austin Texas on 14th of December. Sent First Class. Went from my local P.O. ( Bridgeton NJ) to Bellmawr NJ sort facility also on 14th and left there on 14th. No other news as to where package is. Buyer wants to know where package is. Had insurance and delivery confirmation. Has anyone ever had a similar experience with lenghty delivery with USPS?

I made an error and have ticked off a buyer. He was a previous customer who had in the past paid with a check, which was fine. I listed something last week. Not long after, he emailed me to ask if a check would still be ok. I replied back that it would, as he'd been a good customer in the past. However, I didn't think to check the auction, and I had at some point between the last time I did business with him and last week, changed my settings to block bidders without PayPal accounts, and...

Every time I try to sign in to My eBay I get a bunch of questions wanting my SS#, mother's maiden name, credit card info etc. in order to get the full benefit of some new security system. And the grammar is bad which is always suspicious. Anyway, I can't get around it to get into either one of my accounts. Are the questions really from eBay or is someone messing with my account?
