Hello
Hi, I recently purchased amazon ghost and ebay stealth for learning purposes. While I still have active accounts, I thought it would be a good idea to be prepared and knowledgeable about the possibilities and options available in case I get screwed over.
A little about my experience with ebay:
---------------
A few years back, my dad and I sold things on ebay. It was new and exciting. We sold expensive items ranging from electronic wheelchairs, to expensive tools that he'd get from saving up home depot giftcards he'd receive from sales reps at his contracting job. We'd sell and he'd give me a small portion of the money for helping out.
This all ended when a POWERSELLER with over 20,000 feedback scammed us. We sent him a brand new item. Brand new powertool worth over 250$. We did it by the book, signature conf, very safely packed, receipt, warranty, etc.
The little f*** opened a case, and sent us back literally the classic box of bricks (I'm surprised he didn't save shipping costs and just sent me an empty envelope) My dad was so disappointed. It ended up being the typical chinese knock off seller.
The WORST part was he had a second account, I just knew it was his second accout.. Too many similarities.. and he was selling the powertool.
But anyway, fast forward and I am able to use paypal and ebay with no issues for some reason. I assume maybe some things have changed after so many years.
---------------------
Point is, this taught me that I need to be prepared for everything on ebay and amazon and I'm trying to soak in everything I can before trying to sell again.:violin:
Hope to learn and get to meet what seems to be a nice community of decent people. |
