MN1 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Does Ebay let bidders off the hook or hold them to what they bid? I understand collecting $ from a buyer is one thing but Ebay should ban people like that. I can't remember when I signed up for Ebay but don't have clause in the User Agreement saying the auction is legally binding? I don't know, just asking.

EdG_Ohio Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 This whole thread about feebay is why I dropped them 16 years ago and never looked back as a seller(non-coin related) and as a buyer. There are numerous other places to sell and buy than that pit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be 3 strikes and you were banned. I think you got a suspension at 2 strikes. However, now they base it on how much you buy. From what I understand, it is hard to get banned as a buyer. All the buyer needs to do is dispute the strike and claim the seller was unresponsive, lied about the condition, refused to ship, etc and the strike disappears. I've been told that the 1st strike will be removed for just asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henri Charriere Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 This is the first time I have heard a complaint about eBay. It's (expletive deleted) PayPal which seems to do all the dirty work on behalf of their host. About a year ago, I started getting rather direct orders from PayPal threatening me with this and that unless I paid NOW (using a font size even our own VKurtB would be envious of). I had the pleasure of informing them I had sent the payment for an overseas purchase a week ago via bank wire transfer at their request! Because of my miniscule area of interest and insistence on acquiring the top grades, many of which I've freely acknowledged do not as yet exist, I eschew raw coins and potentially unpleasant surprises. 🐓 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebay will tell you it is a legally binding contract, but they don't have any enforcement powers. They can't MAKE the buyer or seller go through with the deal. The most they can do if there are too many problems is to kick you off the site. GoldFinger1969 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
