Exactly, those 2 stories above are all too common, they 99% of the time side with the buyer. It doesn't matter which auction site you use, people are still scammed on ebay.

except , my first story has shown if a seller provides a legit tracking number , ebay will side with them sadly
they did backtrack after hsbc fraud department got involved though

^^ a friend recently sold an electronic item for £392

in his PP was £379 - £13 in PP fee`s

on top he`ll be invoiced for £38 in final vale fee`s.


meaning he`ll get £332 (once the odd pence is rounded up) for selling the item - oh and deduct real shipping cost as well - so your likely looking at £322 in the end.

i think you'l find he'l be invoiced for £39.20 for the final value fee :(
maybe this thread has evolved into something more suited to GD :D

If he'd actually explained to paypal the tracking number wasn't legit then they would side with him. There's no way a company like that just look at a tracking number and don't do any checking, it's pretty easy to see if the addresses match.
 
it's always going to be pot luck, if you get someone determined to rip you off and plays the system, you are always going to be in for a hard time.

The only time I sold a graphics card on it, I put down as local collection and demoed it working - the guy was nice, didn't have a problem.

slowly working towards the 1000 for MM :(

with my current rig i'm just selling it to a broke friend who needs an upgrade, not getting anywhere near as much as I'd get from fleabay, but I don't want the hassle.

Yeah that's right. I'd rather sell my almost new 560Ti 448 cores brand new to my friend last year for £100 than risk some random guy over the internet. But I suppose I'd trust the majority on this site though.

as said , MM requires 1000 posts and 6 months , other forums also have similar time and posting limits . so that well known auction site or the national selling page (tree of the gum) would be your only option.


ofc , do stay around and join this lively community :D

btw what you selling?
