Selling Toys - Horror Stories & "Happy" Customers

You should block that buyer. What's their name? I'm gonna block 'em too.

EDIT: They're/their. I used to spit on people like this, and now I've done it twice in the last 24 hours. And both ways (they're for their, then their for they're).
juanasamaniego is their name. Hadn't looked before, but they're apparently in Peru; had their account since 2021, but only have 6 feedback scores, though 100% positive. Still, maybe I dodged a bullet anyway. I never have good luck when sending something out of the US, even when ebay takes care of it. It's all good; I ain't stressing.
 
Best case scenario for me when sending something our of the US, I'm only shitting bricks for a month.

Thank you! I know chances are low they would wanna buy one of my things as well, but I don't believe in taking chances.
 
I have my stuff open to the Ebay Global Ship program, but if anyone contacts me from a country or wanting something outside that program, I just say no. Not worth it.

I can't understand how Ebay sides with the buyer in these situations. It's clearly complete fraud - and if it's not on the buyer's side, then someone messed with one of Ebay's sellers who they should also want to protect.

I finally got my Ebay issue resolved that I started recounting in the start of this thread to my satisfaction when USPS finally found and delivered the package. Had to call Ebay, get transferred for them to close the issue - and I still haven't gotten the money back in my account that Ebay froze. But, at least I "won".
 
Listing for Gamerverse Venom

"Does this include captain America"
"No."
"Just venom."
"Just Venom.'
"Only Venom, no captain America?"

I've had this up all week, 11 "I'll be there tomorrows" with no follow ups so I'm feeling saucy.

"Look, I'm just curious if you saw a listing for Venom and clicked it expecting anything other than Venom.

Did you really think you were going to get the sold out two pack that just came out a week ago for half price when everyone else is asking $60+ on top of retail?"

No response.

Real "why you kick my dog" energy.

People like this it’s like how do they get through a normal day
 
This may be the only instance of ebay siding with the seller that I've seen. It's why I won't sell on ebay any longer.
I'm a few weeks late seeing this, but I agree. Honestly, I think the only thing that saved me on it was the buyer leaving positive feedback the night he got the figure in the mail, and then waited a week to raise an issue. Ebay saw that as a little shady on his part. If it hadn't been for that feedback, I'd have been kinda screwed because I'd already spent the money lol

It was a good lesson to wait a bit before putting the cash toward something else.

Not exactly a customer, but I had someone today send a message about some Nightmare Before Christmas popcorn buckets I'm trying to sell. They asked if I have a lot of Halloween stuff for sale, because if not, they have a bunch of stuff they need gone, and I can sell it for them. I wasn't gonna answer, but I tried to be nice and just say I'm not looking to split profit with anyone, just in case of disagreement, and they responded with "Oh no, I didn't mean to split, I just meant you could sell it for me if you already have the supplies". :rolleyes: I didn't respond.
