I'm looking for ideas to trace a sale. Basic scenario is that I got a message from a 'buyer' saying that just over 2 months ago she made a multiple purchase from me and one item was damaged and I promised to send her out another one, and that replacement never arrived. The item she appears to be querying is a line I was…

Sold an item and the buyer paid by eCheque. I sent the item without allowing it to clear (I know...DOH) The buyer received their item yesterday and left me a nice positive.

eBay returns
I recently bought a camera lens which turned out to have a large amount of fungus on the rear element. It was described as unmarked, working order, hardly used etc. Seller has a shop but I'm not sure if they're a business. The seller agreed to refund but doesn't pay return postage. I know it's wise to send special delivery…

Scam or our mistake?
Oh dear, a friend of mine bid on an iPad on eBay. Turns out that the seller was selling a picture of an iPad! :mad: Now we've read the description clearly, embedded within all the details of an iPad, it does state that it is a picture, and says "pic" in the title. It's listed under Everything else > other. Is there any…

ebay is tinkering again
Just trying to list and I've got the awful new 'sell your item' format back again that people were moaning about the other evening. It is impossible to use so I have had to resort to Turbolister again. Stop tinkering ebay, it's fine as it is.

Seller made me leave positive feedback before refunding for SNAD item
As above. I just had an unpleasant transaction where the item arrived damaged so I opened a case and sent it back for a refund. However he left a message that said he won't refund me until I leave positive feedback which I wasn't going to do because he was being rude to me for days and it made me feel awful. He would leave…

Ticket bought on eBay, never delivered
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could offer me any advice. In April this year I bought 2 tickets to the Stone Roses gig in Heaton Park for £150. The person who I bought them off constantly re-assured me they would be delivered nearer to the event, then in the week before the event (June 31st) stopped responding to any…

I know a few people who have brought things from £1 shops, and managed to sell them for £1.99 or £2 on eBay and are making about £300 a month profit doing so. It's not taking them much time per week…

Dad made a mistake on ebay
My dad (new to ebay) offered a seller a certain amount of money for an item as a buy it now because he hates bidding and couldn't afford the other 'buy it nows' that were up. He assumed that the seller would just put the buy it now on the listing. The seller accepted but said it had to be directly through paypal. So he…

DSR report by item number
After receiving two 3* for postage (which I subsidise and always under-charge), I tried to run a report by item no to see who left them. The option to run by item number is no longer then, just either by listing date or transaction date. Am I missing something, or have Ebay closed this loophole ? Sorry, ignore, obviously…

Forced partial refund
Hello! Long time reader, first post. I sold a vintage item on eBay this week, and when received the buyer stated that the item was missing a button (which I don't believe it was) and had more damage than I thought. I offered them a partial discount which I thought was more than fair but they are insisting I give them a FAR…

Apologies if this is a really daft question, I've searched paypal help and MSE help and cannot find the answer. I received a vintage LP I've wanted for ages last week that didn't play, I offered the seller photos etc and they simply refunded me. I ordered another from another seller and it arrived yesterday, poorly…
