I ordered a Coco Chanel shower curtain, item #*******845 from an Ebay seller named Kartska-0 aka Kha_chm_fpe1zvg. I paid $39.98 on my charge card on 7/21/18. Of course they quickly got their money. Unfortunately weeks passed by and I still had not received my product nor had the seller contacted me. I had to email them and request my product be sent. The item was to arrive no later than 8/16/18. This den of thieves lied and said my product got lost and that it should be arriving soon. Days went past and I emailed again! Finally, the item arrives on 9/1/18 only it's not the item I ordered. I hit the roof! This time I threatened to report them to Ebay. What a waste of time. Ebay is a den of thieving sharks and don't care if you get taken. I call Ebay stay on the phone over 2 hours being shifted from one operator to another. HORRIBLE customer service! I provide with all the emails and even the email where I threatened to report them to "Sitejabber". Finally, they tell me they will contact the seller and have them send me a return label and then I get my money credited back. WTF! Are you serious? Do you think I wanna be shaghaied and bamboozled again? Ebay then sends another email stating the seller can't send a return label and for me to just send the item back and then I will get the credit to my account. I went completely OFF! Ebay and the seller not only emotionally raped me but continued the merchant abuse by trying to get me to pay to send the wrethched item back. Please beware of Ebay! They support thieves, hustlers, liars and criminals. They will back them and take your money and not give it back. Obvious Ebay is desperate if you can't even return $39.98 to a customer! They are corrupt and sleazy. DO NOT throw your money away to Ebay! Go to Amazon! To date Ebay has not returned my money. Ebay is the pimp and the seller is the whore or retail human trafficking! Should be a law against this kind of abuse!

Site charges you for every little action beware without notice you'll have racked up a small bill after listing items even items not sold. I will only list large selling items do not recommend for multiple cheap items. Site navigation is horrible for sellers and there should be alerts prompting any type of fees. You are also getting fees when on mobile devices the default option to relist items automatically charging you up to x8!

If you want some warranty don't buy here.
I bought a Nikon Battery, it worked for 2 months, it was nor perfect but it worked. I had some minor issues (less capacity, more charge time, it stopped work when it was half full) but just keep using it.
I evaluated the buy because it seemed good (before the minor issues).
Then after 2 months the battery just stopped working.
Reported the situation to the seller. (https://www.ebay.com/usr/sunpower-fly)
Reported the situation to ebay.
Reported the situation to Paypal.
I will report this situation to Nikon. (It's not a Nikon battery but they say it is.)

In Europe we have a warranty of 3 years in this kind of products. Here it was a total loss of money and time for me.

I tried to change my evaluation of the seller but eBay does not permit.

Using ebay is usually ok unless there is a problem. Twice I have sold stuff on ebay & the buyer has requested to return the item by making false statements. The problem is that ebay allows buyers to return anything & everything without any evidence, photos, etc & makes the seller pay for everything which is unfair! When postage is $10 for an item & the seller has to pay $10 to send it & then $10 for the return all of a sudden it costs the seller $20 if a buyer wants to return something. For any reason the buyer has with no pictures or evidence or anything. This can get expensive for sellers to ship goods all over the US without collecting any money. Customer service doesn't care at all about sellers return policy or requesting any evidence from buyers either... they want sellers to eat the costs of returns which is unfair when buyers break the return policy. A buyer with an address registered to about 50 companies including pawn shops & tax companies did this to me & it appears to be fraudulent or for money laundering purposes & I am not happy with how ebay requires no evidence of damage or something being not as described before allowing the buyer to return the item for a full refund at a $20 expense to the seller. Ebay fails sellers on a massive level. Ebay has a defacto policy that the 'buyer is always right' and free returns for all buyers EVEN IF SELLERS HAVE NO RETURNS in their contracts.

Ordered a mirror for my car on ebay from carmirrorbazar... received mirror and matched it up with the cracked one. Wasn't even close in measurements... way off... Emailed carmirrorbazar. An explained that the mirror did not fit the backing plate and length/width and diagonal measurements were wrong... They had me send them pictures of front and back of the mirror with their number on it. They emailed me back and said it was the correct replacement. Had to have ebay step in to resolve the matter. Finally I got a refund to my paypal account. No pride what so ever...

I have read a lot of reviews about ebay and paypal and how difficult it is for sellers especially new ones to stay afloat with a small business. I really set my mind to becoming an ebay seller many people who I know had attempted with little success most didn't even sell a single item. I on the other hand did exceptionally well in the first 30 days or so. I thought I had found my calling. Little did I know that the worst was yet to come I will not get in to all the details. My experience is just about the same as every negitive commit made about ebay and paypal that you can read about. So with that being said I believe that ebay and paypal should be governed in some way more than they are the racket they are running should be flat out illegal... I have made suggestions to them about what I call NEW SELLERS GRACE AND LEINENCY PERIOD. Which would allow new sellers to get accustom to the way things work before they are just CUT OFF SHUT OUT AND LEFT WITH THE BILL. I mean get real I started this business because I had no money and wanted to do something productive with my time. Instead of sitting around trying to think up some get rich quick scam I wanted that feeling of success and I thought I had found it but in turn ebay and PayPal are one sided and only care about getting and keeping your money for as long as they possibly can. I could go on for hours about how they suck and sellers should beware... SO ANY BUYERS OUT THERE THAT ARE HAVING TROUBLE WITH THEIR SELLERS PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT EBAY AND PAYPAL MAKE IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR SELLERS
