What percentage of ebay buyers are just plain stupid?

My dumb encounter was I sold a wirephoto to a guy (photos shown) and he was disappointed as he thought it was going to be a slide.

At least 50% of the people on Ebay, the same as in this country!!!!!!!!!!

My wife recently was selling a sweater on eBay. The sweater was a large upper end sweater in excellent condition. We had pictures of the sweater, tag said large and was pictured. An idiot low feedback broad bid the sweater up and we shipped it to her. We get an email from this persons daughter saying she didn't bid on the item and she didn't know how we got her address. An hour later we get an email saying her mother had used TTY account to buy it. A few days later without contacting us, the "mother" left negative feedback saying the sweater didn't fit her and couldn't be a large sweater. At no point did she ever ask for measurements on the sweater. Maybe the sweater just didn't fit her body type ( probably obese) . Of course eBay left the feedback leaving this as our only negative feedback ever. If the buyer would have contacted us, maybe we might have helped her out. Apparently she was to stupid to know how to communicate!

Ebay reversed its decision! I guess the buyer purposely shipping the item back in a box with a huge hole, and stating so in writing three times, along with photos of the box with hole, damaged bag, and hours of time, did the trick. I am amazed.

Lets see the pics you took of the whole and bag?

Pics of bag are inaccessible now but here is the box with hole that the $600 delicate bag was shipped in, jostling against the shards of cardboard for nearly a week.

Congrats on the reversal! That is truly the first time I have seen eBay completely reverse their decision.

Ebay reversing something in favor of a seller is the first sign of the apocalypse. The Mayans were right! make peace with whatever God you worship.

here is a maybe stupid ebay question

in all listings for buy it now you can also add a best offer and here is how it is listed


Buy It Now $689.00 (price example)
or Best Offer

as the listing only states "best Offer" I would believe that if you made "the" best offer during the time the item is up you may be able to say you should be made the winner of that item

legal team ???
