So I had two accounts under the same name. These were personal accounts, not stealth. The accounts are actually the reason that I am here now haha.
Today I received a TON of notifications of emails. I opened my email to see :
Immediately I went and checked the cases, because anything against me had always been solved. Some people would not close a case, and it would eventually go to eBay and I would get the money back. So I opened one of the emails...
Well, thats odd. Every single order that I have ever sent on this account has had a tracking number. Each item was under $750.00, so I did not need signature confirmation. So I opened the case details.
As you can see where I highlighted, I had even provided the tracking number in the case. This has been a customer that I always worked with. They even said they have never had an issue with us. So I kept moving on. Maybe eBay checked the order, and I did not add the tracking number there?
Well, thats not it. Everything was provided to show that the item is there. The tracking number even shows it was delivered on the 25th. This happened with every case that was open on this account. (I sell a software, and a lot of customers are not very computer savvy.)
SO
I go onto my other eBay account. On this one, we sell digitally delivered items. Game codes, desktop backgrounds, word articles, ect.
Oh god. So I check these same cases. Each one was a customer thinking that they were getting a physical product. We clearly stated in each listing that the products were digitally delivered, and that nothing would be posted. Hell, we even paid for the extra sub-line and put "DIGITALLY DELIVERED PRODUCT - NO POSTAGE". Guess people do not read.
So to make things even better, I call eBay. I get on the phone with a guy named Anthony, who explains to me that he can see the cases, however he deals mostly with customer returns. He checks everything he can, and tells me what he knows. Great guy. He tells me he can pass me to someone who knows more about my cases, so we proceed with that. I get to a lady named Desi. And it gets worse.
She checks my account and sees that each item I sold was digitally delivered. She tells me that I had to state it in the listing. Which as I said above, we do. eBay had suspended our selling accounts, and removed our listings. That means the representative cannot view the listing either, so they automatically close it in the buyers favor.
So I have her look into the cases where I had a tracking number, and the customer even states the product is working great. She puts me on hold for 2 minutes, comes back, tells me 2 more minutes, and does this for 10 minutes. When she finally comes back, she tells me that since my selling privileges are suspended, I have no protection under Seller Protection. She says that any case that is opened against me will result in the buyer getting their money back.
I ask her how that is even fair, and she tells me that I can just send the person an invoice on PayPal and hope that they pay.
Today have been rough. I have lost a TON of money in the past few days. You do not even want to see my paypal, but I will show it below for fun...
This is just from today. You do not even want to see the past days...
Rant over.
