<p>[QUOTE="Lehigh96, post: 1906098, member: 15309"]1) But you are okay with a buyer being able to return a used lottery ticket?</p><p>2) Again, sellers don't mind SNAD complaints if they are handled correctly by E-Bay. But when over 90% of all complaints are settled in the buyers favor, something is wrong. E-Bay's decision to blindly side with buyers regardless of facts creates a scenario for con artists to exploit reputable sellers. This causes the good sellers to stop selling on E-Bay or raise their prices.</p><p>3) I believe that you got a quick turnaround time. My point is that if you are going to buy raw coins on E-Bay, then you should be able to grade and authenticate the coins yourself inside the 14 day return window. Buyers should not be given a 30 review period so that they can have the coin graded and then return the coin if they don't like the grade. I have had NGC details grade 3 of my last 40 coins and none of the 3 showed any evidence of cleaning. I won't go so far as to say they are being told to do this intentionally in order to boost resubmissions, but I wish I submitted more coins so that I could see whether this is bad luck or a trend in their grading.</p><p>4) SNAD 30 days, 14 if otherwise is the way it is now for sellers who accept returns. I don't think E-Bay should require sellers to accept returns. It should be up to the buyer to avoid sellers who don't accept returns if a return policy is important to them.</p><p>5) I know you said the smudge was bogus. You also said you didn't care and thought the guy should be able to return it anyway.</p><p><br /></p><p>You now have be confused.
