In the face of eBay's heavily buyer-weighted protection policy, how in the world do you manage to be out any money from mistaken/dishonest sellers?
I did get through to Customer Service, and just got done with them. The rep said that the order is on a "Dollar Hold", which they impose on all...
Difficult to tell from this picture. Looks like it could be an artifact from sharpening the image, either in-camera or in post-processing.
That's all fine and good, but I'm trying to call, and each time, the voicemail says "please have your order number ready" -- and then drops me to...
Well, here's the relevant FAQ, although it doesn't mention "suspended" or give much detail about "hold".
Did anybody get a call from the Mint asking to confirm the order? I thought that weird call I got earlier today might have been from the CC...
Hmm -- a bit out of character compared to the seller's other items. Wonder if someone's "borrowing" the account?
Hmm. Mine (from 12:33) still shows Order Status as "On Hold", and Item Status as "backordered, scheduled to ship on 08/05/14". I see one person is...

It's my turn! ...but after adjusting quantity in my cart, it's prompted me for my username and password again, and NOW it's just sitting there....
Sure would love to see what their throughput is right now -- orders per minute, number of customers "in flight" (in the ordering process), and of...
I hopped on from my phone within a second or two of the waiting room opening; when I got home, I hopped on from two other machines (two browsers...
I have no trouble believing that someone with a troubled past can "go straight". It just appears that this guy never quite worked those last few...
Yep, with the "Waiting Room" opening 15 minutes before that. I'm starting to wonder if I'll lose my nerve. I'm not sure what the upside potential...
I'm still trying to decide whether to go all-in or not, but as I understand it there isn't actually any advantage to hitting the website well in...
What hoops do you need to jump through to report it? Hardly any. Just click on the "Report item" link, at the top right of the Description...
