<p>[QUOTE="Numismania, post: 1924579, member: 28971"]It IS good practice. I just sold an MS '82-P 'No P' Roosie......raw. The buyer ('would-be' buyer at the time), seemed very friendly, asked for more images, which he got. The BIN/BO was settled last Sat night, shipped Mon, and it was received Wed am. Friday morn, I check 'My ebay', only to discover he opened a claim Fri at 8:41am, no contacting me directly. I specifically stated in a message (that eBay's CSR's could see) that "if there are any issues/questions, PLEASE contact me IMMEDIATELY, as I'm not satisfied unless YOU are" (and I mean that...I try to provide the best service possible). I responded to his claim 74 minutes after he opened the claim, telling him to send it back and I would gladly refund his money. No response from him since. His reason for claim: "This coin, to me, looks to be AU58". In my description, I noted "no full bands, not a 'gem' Roosie, just a solid MS coin". Called ebay, and they are actually in my corner, seeing all my communications with him (5.0 DSR for communication, 4.9 for 'as described'), and they told me exactly what to do, and where he did not contact me first, per ebay's 'suggestion', if he decides to neg me, my chances at getting it removed, as he jumped right to a claim, are 99% in my favor.</p><p><br /></p><p>To avoid unnecessary bullcrap, always try to work it out with seller before opening a claim. Buyers like this one, everyone can do without. As long as you stand by your product and offer a refund, there is no reason to have a claim opened, which is a 'black mark' and stays with you. To this moment, I still don't know what's going on, but he has 23 days to 'play this game', yet I have only 3 days to refund him when item is returned. I hope he knows he MUST provide tracking, or the claim is automatically found in favor of seller, and a neg is 100% guaranteed removed. Some buyers....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
