PayPal scam warning
PayPal after 4 months of silence from a buyer have paid out £1,600 to the buyer who said he didn't receive the item. 4 months not a peep then a claim that the item hadn't been received and PayPal pay out £1600 of the sellers money.

Ebay sellers don't understand distance selling
Bit of a rant about ebay sellers and their inability to describe condition properly. Putting up a few blurry photos and writing good condition for age is useless. I don't know if this is laziness or trying to sell goods they know are in a poor condition. The latest example of this is trying to buy a used car part. Now to…

I've tried putting the paper back in upside down but then labels overlap, also tried landscape but all that did was centre the label, tried 2 pages per sheet and that shrunk the…

Spares or Repair 'Etiquette'
Hello, So I've sold a few things in the past as 'spares or repairs' on eBay. The whole term spares or repairs, suggests such item is in a state that it can be repaired, or be used as spares if one desires. Usually to me, a spares or repair item is an item that someone has broken but made no attempt to fix. So I bought…

Tired of people making an offer and then not collecting
Sorry minor rant about 'buyer collects' people not collecting or even replying to messages. We are trying to downsize and people keep bidding on large items and never collecting. Then you have to waste days waiting to see if they can be bothered to reply before opening a not paid case and then wait until that clears before…

ebay authorised return although item was as described
A buyer bought an item from me recently (quite large and heavy, went by courier). I posted clear photos of the item and mentioned a defect with it in the listing.
