Of course they are. I have always found that buyers pay immediately, always leave positive feedback and 5* ratings and invariably come back and buy again.

But then maybe .....

Welcome to eBay...almost every buyer on there is a 2-bob-knob.

Amazon clientele are slightly better.

the dispute is still open

he sent them back with no tracking and they got lost in the post

an item returned that was broken by the buyer to get his own way is no good to me

so yeah screw him

^^^ good on you, what an absolute twit. spelt with an 'a'. :D

reminds me of this member i came across the other day- noticed he had very low feedback 8 or 9, all positive but comments within the positive were all negative (obv left by the sellers who have no option but to try to warn other sellers through pos fb with neg comments). when i clicked on his username, 'feedback as a seller' = 0, he only buys, 'feedback left for others', what a surprise every one he had left was negative, stating "item did not arrive." to this day it is absolutely beyond me how a company as huge as eb can so BLATANTLY, and OBVIOUSLY ignore and worse actively give a green flag, to a member such as this who is simply getting free items delivered to his door. again and again. whilst all the time only ever able to incur pos fb himself.

had a few tracking signatures where a relatives name signs, and I think they did not give the item to the buyer, as the buyer is complaining in a genuine way....but that is not my problem, go tell Jeremy Kyle, I have the tracking....

When it comes to expensive packages ($100 and up) what I do is the following:

1. Ship the item(s) with signature + tracking.
2. I call the Post office that corresponds to the buyers town and call. I "Ask" the post office politely if they can hold the package at their location because it's an expensive item and I would like to have the buyer pick it up.

3. I notify the buyer that their package(s) is at the post office and they need to pick it up.

This forces the buyer to go to the post office and show ID to pick up the package.
I would say this process works about 95% of the time, also note that I've only tried this in the USA.

Having buyer problems myself.

I usualy send items none recorded due to the low value however I am now sending recorded due to the increased amount of ' Lost' items!

I cant believe people still try it on when they know full well they have signed for it!
