    Blurry pics and the obligatory, "Seller does not accept returns" comment in the listing. I am guessing people are playing with him, and he will get it back.

    So, since it is "not as described" eBay will be responsible? Then eBay will tack appropriate action? Is this what you are saying? I hope so. Thanks.

    Even if the seller states "Seller does not accept returns", if you file a "significantly Not As Described" (SNAD) claim ebay will require the return and the buyer gets their money back and the shipping cost. Not sure how ebay gets the money back, probably tacks it onto the sellers monthly bill.

    Thanks for the feedback. I have never needed this yet but it is nice to know.

    I have always been curious about this. If I sell something and the buyer decides to pull this card even though it was a legit item, does the seller get any guarantee that the item is returned?

    I do apologize if this next section becomes loaded and feel free to ignore it. I haven't sold anything on ebay since 2003 and that account was eventually deactivated due to inactivity, but I remember hearing of changes years ago that put everything in the buyer's favor and can completely screw over the seller. Do the sellers actually have any guarantee anymore with getting the items back or reversed paypal transactions? Like I said, it's been a long time since I've sold anything, but I just remember hearing of a wave of sellers continually getting screwed years ago after policy changes.

    Bay isn't responsible - they didn't post a coin falsely listed - but they will step in and protect the buyer. So the seller will get stuck paying the postage both ways because they listed it incorrectly. Unless the buyer thinks they are going to steal a 1916/17 SLQ.

    I do believe he has to return it, possibly provide a tracking number, but they could just send an empty box and once the post office indicates it was delivered he gets his money back, and you get the empty box.

    There's never enough area in the report section to quickly describe what is wrong with this listing.

    The entire concept of eBay has changed. In the beginning it was more of an on-line garage sale. Or, a place for collectors to fine things they wanted and get the things they didn't want to someone who did. Everyone seemed to be very honest. Feedback was important and the seller would usually give feedback first. It is now an on-line store and, generally, collectors of any product are customers only. The seller won't send feedback until the buyer does. The feedback feature is just to get sellers a better rating.

    I use it very rarely anymore. At one time I used it daily to get things I wanted and pass on things I don't need.

    There's no way to even email Ebay.
