Do paypal disputes effect ebay seller account
 

I have had two recent disputes on paypal, but for both of them I got an email from ebay that stated "this return has been closed because a paypal dispute has been opened."

I am resolving both issues in a very timely matter and both will be taken care of ASAP, my question is if this counts as a "cases closed without seller resolution?"....Because when I check my seller dashboard the cases closed without seller res. section is still at 0 (top rated).

Anyone know?

I am not sure, but I would suspect no. Kind of like double jeopardy there.

I too am not sure, but I would give it till the next review to be certain if it has counted towards your defect.

Anyone else have info on this?

Thanks Play,
Is there anyway to know if before the next review though? Because I would not want to wait another two weeks if it didn't have an effect on it I can just buy more inventory now.

Just call and ask how it all works, then you will know for sure.

They count towards selling performance but not cases closed.

When a PayPal case is opened because a buyer opened a PP case while an ebay case was open, its customer support who auto close it, so it wont effect you.

But im sure the new update allows a buyer to open a PayPal case and also then an ebay case at the same time.

But if they open a ebay case and a pp case, the ebay one is closed.


slightly off topic

When i had my massive selling account i had alot of paypal disputes when i was selling itunes.
Then as soon as my account was limited it triggered the ebay to be limited.
Then PayPal kept saying that i must close my ebay buyer disputes.
Luckily, the guy on the phone from PayPal was actually awesome to me and phoned ebay directly on my behalf as ebay kept saying i must contact PayPal to resolve my ebay account restriction.


This is from my own experience, but i dont really think they count against "cases closed" if its PayPal as ebay and paypal have very different polices and levels of buyer protection.

Ah got it, thanks
When you say they count towards seller performance can you be more specific?

Re: Do paypal disputes effect ebay seller account
 

Paypal cases does not count in ebay seller performance but paypal do know about your even ebay return cases as I rang paypal in past for review account and I had no paypal dispute but had many return cases on ebay and he knew all of them and told me I have total I think 9 dispute so they know it's all linked
But as I said it does not count on ebay

Re: Do paypal disputes effect ebay seller account
 

Right..I was just asking because the previous user stated that it does impact your seller performance on ebay..which seems false.

Re: Do paypal disputes effect ebay seller account
 

Again, it is the point that "things" happened.

Sure they can be closed but the mark is there.

You have to never underestimate the lack of understanding of a paypal/ebay staffer.

How old is this account now?
:spy:

Re: Do paypal disputes effect ebay seller account
 

Account is a couple years old.
Green bean, what exactly gets marked?
This will not have any impact on my search results for my items/selling potential etc right?

Re: Do paypal disputes effect ebay seller account
 

Marked would likely mean that agents can see prior issues - if they are brought to do so...

"Exactly" is difficult to predict.

Re: Do paypal disputes effect ebay seller account
 

Techincally no. So long as there is no manual review.

Hooman intervention must always be kept in mind.
