Message:: [QUOTE="steverr1, post: 1649181, member: 34880"]Be very careful with giving anyone a negative. I bought an item and I was given a false shipping number. The item never came. After many emails and no response I tried calling. Soon 4 different negatives showed up on this sellers account stating that they too were given false shipping numbers and never received their item. All these were in the last month. After much thought I decided to issue my first negative after using Ebay since 1999. My motivation was to also warn other buyers.  As soon as I posted the negative my shop was issued bad reviews on Google and other forums from this seller who never has been in my shop nor ever did any sort of business with me. The jerk went on to say in his reviews that we sold junk and I was a "troll" and to avoid at all costs. I attempted to get a Google investigation. I assure you it is impossible to get such a thing started. In fact its impossible to get them on the phone at any of their numbers and when you leave a message they never call back. In addittion, Ebay would have no part of any sort of help and basically said for me to get lost as it was none of their business (I have over 5000 feedbacks at 100%). I also called three different lawyers who ran ads for this sort of thing but I found out quickly that they were only interested in high dollar cases. I could go on, but I have wrote enough to give you an idea that you take a big gamble with this sort of stuff.[/QUOTE]
