What a bunch of T@ssers they are at shite bay. I read their autobiography which kept saying how ebay was a community and how everyone was friends and helped each other. Not the case now their a multi billion dollar organisation.
I listed pacman- powerpill with reserve and buy it now £30 and gallery pic. Total £1.71.
Some guy from the comes along and presses buy it now by mistake about an hour after I put it up. Now after a week of getting answers from ebay support which have nothing to do with the question I asked, They tell me they won't refund listing fees!!!
WHAT A BUNCH OF THEIVING GYPSIES!!!!! I know it's only £1.71 but it's a matter of principle. Why shouls I have to pay again to re-list.
So now the guy is gonna have to buy it. But....
He's based in the US and my auction said will post to UK only.
What a fucking nightmare. I won't be using shite bay again
Anyone know how much to post to US????





This is my personal opinion although i'm sure there are plenty of other people with similar stories. I think i'll put up a page on the web where people can post their opinions of ebay.

it only cost a few quid even by air mail - BUT most US sellers charge $10 to ship to the uk so ...

Yeah, why is that - I've been charged anywhere between $9 and $13 do have a 12" shipped from the US, yet it only costs about £2-£3 from here??? Are they all sharks or is George Bush on the take from US Postal??? Still got me some great vinyl tho...:love:

ebay a friendly community

EBAY'S JUST AN EXCUSE FOR TO PRINT MONEY FOR WHOEVER OWNS IT. HOW ELSE COULD THEY MAKE AN OUT OF COURT SETTLEMENT OF $20,000,000.00 TO SOMEONE WHO HAD INVENTED THE IDEA.
I SELL ABOUT 30-40 RECORDS A MONTH ON EBAY AND THEY CHARGE ME ABOUT £45 A MONTH...THIS IS NOT "FRIENDLY COMMUNITIES"


THE LAST POINT I'LL MAKE (APART FROM LISTING FEES GOING UP EVERY WEEK) IS THAT ITS FUNNY HOW PAYPAL FEES DOUBLED OVER NIGHT THE SAME WEEK AS EBAY BOUGHT PAYPAL OUT AND ALL THAT BOLLOXS ABOUT "IF A BUYER APRECIATES YOU AS A SELLER HE WON'T CHARGE YOU PAYPAL FEES"....WHA HEY ANOTHER 10% FEES FOR EBAY...........SCUM!!!!!


:axe: ENOUGH OF WACKING MYSELF ON THE HEAD
