I was so excited about building a pc to play valheim with my friends instead of on my old laptop.
I now can't finish it because I don't want to be scalped. I even thought I stood a chance on a 6700xt today, lol how silly was I
I sold my old PC and 2 GPUs on an auction site, all fine. What's a chargeback?
Well if you get the card back all working fine I don't see a problem with a refund. You have to state about refund in the listing, mine was 'no refunds'. just copied what everyone else was doing, no refunds seem fairly standard, the card is working fine, they get it and it works, everyone is happy.Its possible for buyers to charge back the money through PP (don't know if I can mention payment services on here) for arbitrary reasons with no need to send the item back, meaning sellers are left out of pocket and their item. I had this happen with a guitar I sold, the buyer claimed it was faulty months after the sale, they did it all through PP so the auction site never contacted me I just had the money deducted from my account. I tried to chase it up to no avail, they wouldn't force them to return the item and they basically washed their hands of the whole thing. It's a well known issue among sellers on there but big sellers just accept the loss because they can afford to. I'm sure it's quite rare but people are very angry about scalpers atm and that might cause a bitter buyer to f you over.I sold my old PC and 2 GPUs on an auction site, all fine. What's a chargeback?
I haven't had many problems on Ebay over the years, but there's certainly a lot of risk if you get a bad buyer. They can open a case months later with Paypal and get their money back, and Paypal will not make them return the item either. This happened to me once, with a RAM kit that the person claimed was an unauthorised transaction several months after the fact. Paypal refunded them without hesitation and with no conditions (like returning the item). Even putting that rare scenario aside, you have various other scams on the table, like somebody just outright claiming that the card wasn't in the box when it arrived and you sent them something else. There's no way for you to prove you didn't (they don't care about photos or even video, as you could have technically still switched things afterwards), so even if Ebay make them return the item, they can just stick a GTX 260 or something in the box, send it back and they'll be refunded. I've never had that one, but I know people who have.I sold my old PC and 2 GPUs on an auction site, all fine. What's a chargeback?
All I can say is that they almost always side with the buyer. I'm no expert though.
They could either state that the fault was completely different to the one described or that you sent a different item completely. Ebay will side with them in either case. You can likely protect yourself from the first by just not going into details about any faults or functionality other than to say it's broken and you don't know why, but there's not much you can do about option two.
