Happened to me, but I won the appeal.
I sold two atomizers of Creed cologne to one seller - $300. He receives the package and files a case because item is "not as described"..BS. The guy ends up sending me back empty bottles, so I then filled an appeal against the seller. Surprisingly, ebayer was in my favor and allowed me to keep my $300. However, the buyer got to keep his money and my cologne...f*** ebay!
They just need to make it harder to get money back. Why should sellers have to lose money and prove their innocence because a buyer clicks on 3 tabs. If they made it so buyers had to actually put up a legitimate claim things would be different
Same situation that occurs with sellers on ebay. If buyers complain about not receiving the package, the company files an investigation with whatever shipping company they shipped with. If buyer complains about missing item, the company just re-sends them the missing item. It's not a major loss for the company cause they bring in millions, however for small time sellers and companies its a major blow.I wonder what businesses do if someone files a similar claim through Paypal. I know they have return policies and stuff but still.
Also do not buy0 feedback = do not sell

Wait, wut?
You got your 300 back and the buyer got to keep his 300 and your cologne? So ebay paid 300 out of their own pockets? I don't know why you even mad, you got what you wanted right? The only loser is ebay, unless you messed up your own story...
Ebay can't prove whether you are lying or they are lying without extra work. And even then its impossible for them to actually tell anything when they weren't involved with you mailing or him mailing back. At end of day they decided take the loss them self and give you your money back. There are buyer scammer and seller scammers. They decided rather than figure out which was which, that they paid back both sides.Why am I mad?
First of all, I'm not mad - I'm disappointing. Disappointing because ebay let the scammer get away with what he did. Maybe this is why this same topic arises so often - it's easy to scam someone on ebay. I'm sure you wouldn't understand the frustration until it happened to you.
Thanks for posting this. How do I know if I'm under their seller protection policy? I called them as soon as I found out there was a chargeback and they basically told me I have to wait and they didn't refund anything. I'm going to call again now.
I don't understand how a buyer, 6 days after the fact, can just file a chargeback and have the money refunded on the spot without notifying the seller. It just boggles the mind.
Feel the exact same way.Dude that freaken sucks. I feel bad for every legit seller out there that's getting flushed away like this.
I used to sell a lot on eBay back in the day but now I'm reluctant to even though I got a bunch of crap to sell.
I'm officially done too. I owe like $1,000 to BillMeLater though SMH. I wonder if that will go to collections or affect my credit score if I don't pay it off...
Yup. Not worth it... if you got the $$$ just take the L and pay it because it will hurt you a lot more in the long run. Sadly, our nation runs on credit unless you're stacking rubber band banks in your pocket.Why do you owe $1000?
Of course it's gonna go to collections and kill your credit

You're still covered by your credit card company if you send a gift payment.Paypal is the worst. I bought a pair of South Beaches from this girl. To make a long story short she scammed me and didn't respond to none of emails once she got her money. Paypal told me they couldn't do anything because I gifted the money but to file a claim with my cc company which I did. Then I was advised by a Paypal supervisor to close the claim with the cc and he would take care of it. Both claims were closed and Paypal had me running back and forth between them and my cc company. They provided a provisional credit eventually warning me it might be removed and I told them that's fine because once they checked the records they'll see I was scammed. This was November/December. Freakin February they removed it and I went off. I got so fed up with them that I eventually just filed a claim with the Better Business Bureau and FINALLY the issue has been resolved.
If you can. Maybe you should file a claim with BBB against them. They always come through in your behalf.
LOL at sending as a gift
