Default Question about Ebay's Non-Paying Bidder Policy

Posted By: Marc S.

You can prove to Ebay (if you keep meticulous records) that you paid for an item -- even if the seller claims you did not. Hard to do, but possible.

What I find amusing is this: Ebay has a three strikes and you're out policy against bidders. However, sellers have no such standard! If a seller fails to deliver an item -- the worst recompense you have is either though Paypal/your credit card company, small claims court, or a negative feedback. There are many sellers out there with dozens, if not hundreds of negative feedback -- but Ebay will do nothing against them because they generate listing and auction fees for Ebay.

If you want to see some amusing auctions, check out the seller on Ebay who is claiming to have 1957, 1958, 1963, 1965, 1968 and 1969 Topps wax boxes from sealed cases. LOL!
