Re: eBay going to 100% electronic payments only
Yup...I've just about had it with eBay and Paypal...last year I sold a guy a carb and he paid with Paypal, he filed a complaint with Paypal saying the carb was far from described because it needed to be rebuilt, eventhough in the auction I stated it will need to be rebuilt and it was sold as is....well the guy got his money back and I got the carb back missing some parts...I asked Paypal for a justification as to why they ruled in his favor and never heard back.
Oh here's another good one...I bought an engine block off eBay and paid through Paypal...I take the block to the machine shop to have it looked over because the guy told me that the block has no damage and has never been repaired...well the machine shop finds a sleeve in one cylinder and a crack in the block...the machine shop didn't get to the block right away so it was after the 60 complaint limit that I got the information...so I send eBay and Paypal an email about the situation including the eBay auction number and the Paypal transaction number...and the reply I got from eBay was "We're sorry but this transaction took place outside eBay and we cannot help you"...HA holy crap I was floored...
I only used eBay as a last resort and now I am afraid to do that now.
