[QUOTE="mitchell, post: 13322, member: 989"]I don't do much at ebay, but I have bought and sold a few coins. Basioally, I bought Morgan dollars, and when they were not what I hoped (or told) I sold them off and took the loss. Of course, one high bidder did not pay, and would not answer emails. I figure he got caught up in the last minute sniping and had second thoughts, which was not a problem had he just told me so. So I leave this yard-bird truthful, negative feedback, and of course he does the same for me. No big deal. Then he enlists the aid of a mediator to get the negative feedback retracted; I decline. Especially since there was no payment or communication. After I ended the mediation with a refusal to withdraw the feedback, I got an email from ebay telling me I must resolve my complaints of face suspension. Understand, I never acted on a non-paying buyer. It was just $28. So then I get an email saying that perhaps someone has taken over my account (and listing a few other possibilites as to why I was suspended) and listing unauthorized auctions on my account, and even listed what was sold. My question: is this normal for ebay? Will I be suspended for giving someone truthful negative feedback, and not retracting it? Is this typically the way ebay handles disputes? It doesn't really bother me, especially in light of their recent stance against the Second Amendment. But I resent being suspended, especially when I really haven't done anything wrong. And, I would like to be able to buy some coins from time to time. Should I file a complaint against the non-paying buyer? Can anyone shed some light on this situation? Of course, information is hard to get from ebay.[/QUOTE]
