How does eBay handle scam buyers for BIG companies?
 

I always wondered what would happen if a scam buyer tried to pull some cr*p with a major company like Best Buy (as they have an online eBay store now.)

Eg, what if a buyer opened a "Not Authentic" claim? Obviously this would be horse poo poo, since Best Buy would never dabble in that sh*t.. but would eBay still honor the claim and force BB to accept the return?

Or what if the buyer claims defective and returns a brick to Best Buy (through eB).. what if BB puts their foot down and claims the buyer is defrauding them? eBay's argument of "we can't trust the seller over the buyer" wouldn't really hold water in this scenario, so would they really have the audacity to force a refund out of BB's pocket? Would they refund both sides and take the hit themselves? Or would they call the buyer's bluff and suspend them, etc

What do you guys think would happen? I'm really curious

you can open up a does not seem authentic case against Best Buy and they will gladly accept the return and once you return the item, they will refund you the money. They are big companies they do not care if you just scam them for one item. However if you buy 100 from them and open a case to return all of them, they will take actions..

I guess the only difference between Best Buy and us is that eBay will never indefinitely suspend Best Buy's account and they will never need to create stealth account

Agree with above. They just take it as a loss. Bigger fish to fry [emoji108]
