Don't do too much shopping or you will be thrown out for "suspicious security activity". Pardon me, but I thought the purpose of ebay was to shop. They don't appear to like one bidding for multiple items.
I'm just not going to bother trying to be u suspended either. I don't see the point in running around photocopying driver's license and bank account to prove who I am. Funds were and are available, this proof of identity was not required prior to joining. The whole ridiculous rigmarole is pointedly absurd.
Anyone else been penalised for actually shopping, or I am just very unlucky?

I am giving single star because I am not able to give 0 star.
On item detail page ebay writes "Ebay Guarantee" with big font and make the customer fool like me.
I have purchase one 32 GB Samsung memory card from ebay. After purchase I found that it's not original card. Print made on card was removed by just touching with the finger.
So, I have raised the claim with id ******* to ebay on the next day of item received. First ebay reject the claim with the statement item was in manufacturer warranty, So I need to contact Samsung.
Then I go to Samsung service center they told me that it's not a Samsung card, so you need to contact merchant.
Then I contact seller by ebay email, I didn't get the reply for 5 days.
Then I called to ebay then have given me seller number and told me to try to contact seller for 5 days. Seller was not receiving the call but still I need to try for 5 days.
After 5 days I called to ebay then they told me that they will try to contact seller and will update the status with in 2 days.
After 2 days I didn't get the call, so I called to ebay and asking for the refund then they again tell me to wait 7 days.
After 7 days I called them and they told me to send the pictures of card on '*******@ebay.com'.
After sending the email I got the call from ebay and they executive told me that I will get the refund with in 7 days.
I didn't get the refund for 10 days, so I called them again then they told me that your claim was rejected because item was in manufacturer warranty.
Then after explaining whole case they told me that no one called from ebay and grant the refund. Due to call recorded previous call was recorded and I have start the recording during call the prove that I got the call from ebay executive. Then they told me to wait more 2 days.
After 2 days I called them again and again got the same answer, After listening the audio clip of call they told me to wait more 7 days.

I am so frustrated with this type of service. For every reader of this review I only suggest that never buy anything from ebay. Ebay guarantee is a big scam and never help out in trouble.

Still Waiting for claim amount and further process. Totally fraud happening. Customer waiting in Blind faith. Do needful,

So a woman sent me back her USED BRA instead of the American Girl Doll clothes that I sent to her. I got NO MONEY BACK, and cannot even leave her a bad review.
That is just ridiculous that ebay cannot even protect against faulty returns and I could not even make a case to be looked into because the case had been closed since Ebay's shipping labels must be used when making a return. Once it is returned it is not their problem anymore. People know how to work the system and get away with SCAMMING PEOPLE. The woman was not even penalized, all you can do is report her, but that will not stop her from being able to sell.

My brother and I have been selling on ebay for over 10 years. During that time ebay has made a lot of changes that increasingly has made it harder on sellers. I love buying on ebay because anything you buy is guaranteed for 45 days when you pay with Paypal so it is hard to go wrong. At the same time you can imagine what sellers have to do with scamming buyers who know this and use the guarantee to their advantage. We have had buyers switch items, buyers who sent back empty boxes, etc. I was going to give ebay 3 stars but it is so great for buyers. So if you are a buyer... 5 stars If you are a seller 2 Stars.

Very convenient store to buy different things from all countries. I bought as various fines and jacket for the autumn-winter. It's nice that there is a protection as paypal

Ebay is a complete fraud, all thier policies are nothing but their cheap tricks on consumer who havent used their site,

I bought a phone a month ago,
I received a wrong product,
I raised for a claim,
Have written more than 10 email,
The only action that was taken was:
I was called by ebay customer service who surely didnt know what he was doing, he connected my call to the retailer and retailer said that his boss was not here so he cannot do anything.
What am i suppose to do.
I never knew that ebay was such a big fraud.

And more over this isnt the first time,
Last time i had the same issue it was a refurbished product,
And i can assure you that refurbished goods on ebay are one of the biggest scam on the internet and they do it openly, if the phone you buy is faulty, they will literally disclose it to you that thier policies cover nothing for refurbished goods, they say go to manufacturer even if the issue is non -repairable.
Be warned EBAY guarantee is a name of a modern e-commerce trap.

According to the fine print, I was able to sell x amount of collectables for free. I posted items and did not use any of their services that indicated payment. I sold nothing. I removed all posts. Then they billed me 24.00 for the month, and then the next and the next and the next. I have not used or logged onto this site since trying to sell that one month. You cant respond to emails. There is no number that I can find for contact. I cant even find cancel service anywhere on their site. Stay away from them. Sneaky backsterds. And from what I've read, the seller has no protection against fraud. Seller be ware!

Productsbyrus is an eBay seller who's breaking ebay rules by overcharging for shipping which is avoiding eBay fees by overcharging on shipping and charging for FREE USPS Priority Mail materials such as boxes, labels, and even padded envelopes all of which are FREE from the Post Office and the USPS will even deliver them in bulk for FREE to any seller's address be it home or business! Yet this seller feels the need to charge $4.50 per transaction to cover the eBay anbd PayPal fees!
