<p>[QUOTE="Mlicht4139, post: 586946, member: 18637"]Hi Lostdutchman, well not to get off base to far from the subject but when eBay first put their "Buyers ONLY can give a negative or neutral feedback" rule into effect I was getting blackmailed and extorted all the time. Example: "I do not like this coin I bought from you! You will give me a full refund or I will give you a negative(and keep coin)". I voiced my anger with eBay which did nothing about it and I ended up paying the extortion refunds. </p><p> I soon closed my store on eBay and moved to another auction site(eBid). It turned out this new site was way way worse than eBay and extortion was an everyday thing. I truely think this site(eBid) is where all the people that have been booted from eBay over the last 15 years go.</p><p> I then returned to eBay earlier this year and have been pleasantly surprised that this is the 1st attempt since my return. Anyone who has sold or selling on eBay since these rules where put into effect is really putting a noose around thier neck. We are at the buyers mercy and eBay won't do a damn thing to help a seller. Right now I have nearly $300 worth of unpaid auctions over a month old and the buyers will not respond to my messages. So do I file a complaint of "non-payment" with eBay so the buyer can neg me for ****ing him off with the complaint? Nope, I just eat it.and relist. So it does me no good to get mad as every seller on eBay has to deal with it.</p><p> Thanks for your insight, Mark[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
