Feedback extortion / extortions are already starting...

[fflier]

If you followed thru and gave them an unpaid item strike for each item, yes ebay should remove the negative feedback they left for you

[f1br3opt1c]

Already gave the unpaid strike for both of the items he bought and also also got back my money. Will it help if the dispute is already closed?

[imjustme]

They won't remove your negative feedback if he has responded to the dispute.

A few weeks ago I had someone buy 2 items worth each about $50. I started the auctions for $0.99 and $19.99 shipping each (little bit more than the actual shipping price, but not a lot). He actually got angry because I wouldn't combine both of them into 1 shipment and that he had to pay the $19.99 twice.

hi, when I still had my 8 year old powerseller account, I forwarded a similar
email with headers to T&S .. . 3 times... the response i got is that the buyer wasn't extorting me and that he is entitled to his opinion.

but it doesn't matter anymore... I lost everything I worked for 2 weeks ago for "abusing ebay".

I told her to just ship everything back to me and I will refund in full and reimburse her for her postage. Ingrate.

Unluckily for her she outlined the whole tit for tat to me in an EBAY message and has already been reported to EBAY for feedback extortion. Let the chips fall where they may!

I have three buyers currently trying to extort me for a full refund for items that cost about $120 each and I'm not going to budge.

sometimes the best thing to do is just let them just file a claim with paypal and if you win then you win but if you don't, well, you can always ditch the account and have no remorse since the buyer was trying to scam you!

I added my bank information on Tuesday afternoon to my Paypal account. It is now Friday morning and I am not showing this deposit. How long does this usually take?

My Paypal account is in my Dad's name, but I came to this site and asked if it would be okay to initiate the deposits to my bank account to have him become verified, since he does not have a checking account. Many people here told me it should be fine. However, since I am not seeing this deposit, I am a little concerned.

PLEASE HELP!!!

So i list items on ebay, new account trying to build up feedback, 100% at the moment taking things easy.

All my listing clearly show shipping costs to every country.

Buyer puts bids in on items and wins them all, then tells us this will cost "xxx" amount to ship via UPS and that's what he is paying! i tell him we ship USPS and the cost is "xxx" per item and that we don't combine shipping due to the items shipping from different locations & such. Respond do what you must but i am posting appropriate feedback once received.

I think this is border line threats & wonder if i should report to T&S?

I know that what ever i do this guy will post negative feedback unless i charge him what HE wants to pay and not what we liste din the auction.

PS, he never once email us duing the 7 day listing, just bid in the last 10 seconds.

What do i do?????

If he pays and you ship the items and he leaves neg. feedback, then I would show ebay the conversations you had with him and let them know what happened. I think they will delete the neg. feedback if you do that and that is what he leaves you.
