Yes, I agree, all serious issues. I suppose there will always be con-merchants around in this world. What angers me is that such a massive player in marketing as eBay doesn't seem interested in taking notice of individual complaints from its users. Some issues appear to me to have obvious fixes - but nothing happens. Frankly, I don't think my efforts will fair any better - but I thought I'd have a try. Thanks for your contribution.
I feel your proposals will not be picked up by ebay as they commit buyers and will reduce the bid rate. Sellers can limit bids to buyers with only +ve feedback/no disputes logged etc and its done that way. I believe the real issue is the one I have mentioned, and in fact there is a court case soon where a seller went through 25+ usernames to con people and as fast as items were being reported they reappeared. While on bail he was still at it. The problem was it took over a year for it to be taken seriously and that wasnt by ebay who had done very little to prevent it. If it hadn't been so blatant or over a shorter period of time he would probably have got away.
ds anyway! This may not have been my moment... but I shall find a way.Gassing Station | The Lounge | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
