Buyer wins auction and states they paid too much
Buyer wins auction for fine jewelry @ $101 that started @ $.99. Ignored my follow-up emails. 20 days later states it too small & they paid too much & demands $30 credit or will return. Emailed resp. that ALL specs, sizes, weights CLEARLY detailed along w/pics showing next to a quarter & listing says in BOLD NO RETURNS & they had for 20 days! Called Ebay who agreed. Buyer sends 4 emails claiming pics too good, not happy, I charged too much (AUCTION!) & will return if I won’t credit. Ebay again confirmed they had no case & if they retured w/0 Ebay premission I should not accept pkg. & to tell them to file case. Again, I did. Then they emailed that I lied on purpose to scam them & pics were fake & they were returning because they couldn’t make money & they bought 1 similar for $60 so I should refund, but I won’t so they’re returning. I resp. to file Ebay claim as my 11 YRS selling fine jewlry & my listing info. speaks for itself. They emailed again that DIAMONDS WEREN’
T REAL! (Exactly what I told Ebay I feared after they’d had so long. Too much time to replace or screw w/my fine jewelry. Per Ebay, told them I disagreed and to take it up with Ebay as I wouldn’t respond to any more direct emails. CLEVERLY they filed PAYPAL case who put a hold on my funds! ELEVEN YRS of IMPECCABLE SERVICE & $$$$$$ to them means NOTHING! Now, after all this BS ALREADY, I have to provide PAYPAL with all this info. all over again & they tell me they can’t even access the Ebay isting or messages right now & it can take up to 30 days to resolve & release the held funds on my acct. IF THEY RULE IN MY FAVOR! BTW- I already credited back her orig. ship fee $5.50 plus upgraded to priority mail free because SHE TOOK 3 DAYS LONGER to pay than my listing stated & I had to leave town & take it with me & couldn’t ship for 2 days after she FINALLY PAID! BUT PAYPAL DOESN’T CARE!!!!! IF THEY, in all their online jewerly selling expertise, decide in her favor, THEY WILL PAY HER THE WHOLE ORIGINAL FEE REGARDLESS OF REFUNDS SENT!!!
I have filed complaints with my states Banking Commission against PayPalI have been selling on eBay using PayPal for close to ten years. All my sales have been for the most part related to my vintage motorcycle hobbie. In August of 2011 I invested a...

How stupid can a buyer be? It’s an auction if the price is too high then don’t bid on it you idiot! For ebay and paypal to even entertain this whole scam just shows you how much of a role they play in the whole scam. They are the ones helping buyers pull a fast one on sellers. You would think that 11 years of selling on ebay should account for something but it doesn’t. Ebay and paypal couldn’t care less if they lost you as a user because there are new suckers signing up every day for their crappy service.
A similar thing happened to me. I posted an auction with an accurate description. The buyer thought she was getting a priceless antique for cheap. I offered to give her money back minus shipping if she sent it back. She wanted a refund PLUS shipping. Ebay refunded all her money without requiring her to send the item back! I have no recourse. She has my money AND my jewelry!
To everyone out there using Paypal… Stop using them right away and get your own merchant account. Paypay froze my account that held over 30,000 in it. Yes, stupid me had way too much in paypal and they saw dollar signs and interest if they froze my account for 6 months so they thought
i went to congress, state senate , our government , BBB , and attorney General. Got all my money back in 4 weeks . Dont get bullied by Paypal . Dont waste your time sending them the documents they request because it doesnt get you anywhere. Its just a game and a runaround they play with you to prolong things. GET YOUR OWN MERCHANT ACCOUNT LIKE I DID
Good luckl!!
