Buyer Woes & Issues

[they_screwed_me_too]

had a buyer buy the same item from 2 of my stealth accounts

addresses are hundreds of miles apart

hes left the same negative for both items on both IDs

clearly a competitor

im pretty sure ive tracked down who

how would you play it ?

Shotgun ....

not me buddy

[bruceuk]

Do you suspect your man knows the ways of the force (stealth)
Are the accounts he is using new or or accs being used for trading ?

[they_screwed_me_too]

hes left the negs from a 200 feedback buyer account that hes never sold on

the competitor is in a different name and address

pretty sure its the same person (or his friend)

but unless the accounts are linked ive no hope down the ebay help me route

[MM78]

I think your Competitor figured out the 2 accounts he negged were from the same person...perhaps someone running Stealth also.

[they_screwed_me_too]

he may well have done but i doubt it

everything totally different

i think hes just trying to eliminate other sellers selling the same (rare) items

[bruceuk]

Ive had the same problem for a number of years .
Again rare items and only a select few sellers in the uk .
There used to be 2 sellers in the uk now there is about 20 selling same line.
I am now 19 of these 20 but still come under attack now and again.
Not a lot can be done unless you adopt the same tactics or just keep blocking the ones you know are not legit.
Goto ebay with this tale and they will think you have lost the plot.
Or hope they dont know stealth and do the same to them ...

come clean bruce

its you isnt it

The Jig is up Bruce...RUN!

[corleone]

message his selling account with a stealth username. Let him know that you would like the feedbacks revised or there will be action taken. Let him know that you request he message all the sellers he's left negative feedback to ask for feedback revisions(so he doesn't know it's you in case he's left others). Also let him know that he may no longer purchase the same products that he left the negs for.

If he does not comply let him know that he will be hearing from you.

There are some neat tactics to really screw with crooked sellers.

Wish it was buddy then we could have an adult chat and come to some agreement.
However when your dealing with guys whos IQ is lower than a snakes belly we are always going to struggle.

Not hard to do when you are working with ONLY 2 accounts...spread more

[zoneout]

Put in a request for his account info for both accounts. See if there are similarities. If not, ring up the phone numbers on both accts and see if the same turd answers both lines.

That is good - cross reference the buyers addresses - still...2 neg is workable...up the positives - block the bidders

Depends on how much flack the OP wants if they turn out to be the same person.

Going to have to keep his two personalities well apart if going near ebay.


ah mind games

[they_screwed_me_too]

both accounts are within 1.5 miles of each other

on the flip side

i sent him a "why on earth did you do that fool" email

hes said sorry and can i send him a revision request

hope hes as kind to the other seller

@GB flack is my middle name
