I just left neg feedback - Ebay

[Just Me]

that reminds me of the place i nearly bought my wedding dress from they said if anyone leaves them neg feedback they will get all there friends to bid on your stuff not pay for it and leave you neg feedback (sorry for hijacking lol)

If you have that in writing, can't you report that to ebay because I am sure it would violate some policy. Ebay can revoke their selling rights.

A bit of an alternative view - perhaps something has happened to the seller?

I was selling some things on ebay about a month ago and miscarried. All transactions were posted but I had one email from a buyer where they complained that a "small" was actually a 6 rather than an 8 (apparently in tiny-clothing land, 6 is an XS, 8 is a S - heck I have never been smaller than a 14 so everything below a 10 is a small to me). Turns out they wanted a XS, so the top was bigger than they expected.

I knew I had the email, but couldn't bring myself to log in to ebay and deal with it and other stuff, like leaving feedback, because I had just miscarried. In fact I wasn't up to logging on to ebay for about a month, I just was too over everything for that time in my life. But I figured no one is really hurt, and really, I couldn't give a stuff about negative feedback in the grand scheme of my life at that time (as it turns out the woman who bought the top left positive feedback anyway).

So maybe think of it this way - you haven't been ripped off, but rather lost the opportunity to buy something. Maybe the person who isn't replying has other stuff going on in their life. Sure maybe they are lazy, but maybe its something else.

Just a thought

I left bad feedback in December, i bought a rice cooker in October and emailed several times as to where & when i could pick it up, so by December id had enough & left bad feedback...i got an email not long ago complaining that i had left this person bad feedback...even tho the auction ended 3 months prior and this was the first contact i was having with this person

I had a situation similar to RoryRory except that I was the buyer. I bought a wardrobe for DS's room on ebay and kept emailing the seller with no response. I even wrote in the final email that if there was no contact in the next couple of days I would leave negative feedback. Then I found somewhere on ebay that you could actually get the sellers contact details which included a contact telephone number. My DH rang them for me and the sellers husband answered the phone. Turned out that the womans brother had just died in a car accident. I felt terrible that I had been mean in the email. We told them not to worry about it, and worked out how to cancel the auction with them.

I bought W a video camera from o/s on ebay....the discription said it would be here in 15 days...BEAUTY in time for his birthday.......15 days came and went....20.....25...30...day 32 I reported through ebay that the item was never recieved and I had NEVER recieved an email from the seller.
The Seller is hounding me to take my action on ebay down as 'he did send it' and his paypal account has been frozen pending outcome.
I simply told him that maybe he should have emailed me back at least or emailed me to let me know the camera was sent...which he didnt like but yet again demanded that I take down my report.

BUGGER OFF!!!!!!

This is the second time in a month that Ive been burnt like this.....first time was an over locker that still hasnt turned up...hmmmm but thank god for paypal is all I gotta say.

Rayray hon...totally understand when you dont want to get on due to what you went through and any seller/buyer would understand fully the reason why. Its those who do it to rip people off that need to have a 2x4 piece of wood clocked on their heads

Like Rory mentioned i do take into consideration something may have sadly happened to the Seller/Buyer ... for example last year i didn't receive a top i purchased off OZtion for my DD, then about 2mths later i got an email from the Seller madly apologising that she & her DD had been placed in a refuge and therefore she wasn't able to make contact let alone post the goods ... i think from some emails you can tell who is genuine or not, ... it's the Sellers who make threats that make my blood boil
