hi. i hate ebay! here are my stories, I would like to hear yours.

My brother wanted a laptop. He bid on a sony vaio and won. He sent them the money. They said they had cancer and just got ripped off so they couldn't send the laptop. Emailed him, called him, never got the money.

I wanted a laptop. I bid on a compaq and won. Said he got his car stolen when he was taking it to get it shipped...

I bid on a mac laptop. I won. About a week later he still hadnt shipped it. I emailed him and he said there was a family crisis. He said he would ship it the next day. It arrived with no hinge thing to keep the door shut, and scratched.

I sold my laptoP for $700. the guy sent me a fake paypal email saying i got paid. Emailed him. He cancelled the bid..

I hate ebay...

Roflmao!!

**SeanyP** · 07-23-2006, 10:28 AM

thats unlucky as hell. did u buy from the same guy every time?

**The PANIC.** · 07-23-2006, 10:33 AM

Sucks for you.

I bought a broken router that was advertised as working. He shipped it and it didn't. I sent him messages back and forth asking him for my money back. He didn't reply.

I filed a paypal money back thing.

2 Years ago, I bought the Star Wars Triliogy Box Set on ebay for $30. It never got shipped. I filed a paypal money back thing. They denied my claim. Which makes me nervous about the above one. ****.

**Soulphalanx** · 07-23-2006, 10:43 AM

no bad stories about ebay, only good ones

**Siouxsie** · 07-23-2006, 10:47 AM

I've only had 2 problems with Ebay, and I got my money back both times. Ebay is good if you're intelligent enough to buy from trusted sellers.

**Ninjax1** · 07-23-2006, 10:58 AM

I lost in totall £160 with ebay!

**Chrono6456** · 07-23-2006, 11:01 AM

you know, thats why they have a feedback viewer

**bossmanuk** · 07-23-2006, 11:04 AM

I've never had any problems with eBay. I've heard 'horror stories', but never had any problems or fraudsters myself, although I've only used ebay 4 times I've always paid quickly and got my item or got paid quickly and sent the item off. Guess I'm lucky.

Both of my sellers had well over 5000+ POSITIVE feedbacks and were both above 98% good feedback. K, thx.

**Ten_In_2010** · 07-23-2006, 11:13 AM

Only bad experience I've ever had on Ebay was actually my fault. Well, it wasn't a bad experience for me, but it was for the seller. I bought a Vice City money clip and forgot to send the payment. I was switching email addresses at the time, so I guess that had something to do with it. I wondered why I never heard from the seller again, then realized it a few months ago. And if you're wondering, she did send me the money clip, and I love it.
