Default yup ebay sucks when it comes to fraud

I found this out not to long ago in 2 different incidents. In one I paid for an item that was never delivered (why I hate buying from new sellers). When I went to contact ebay I discovered how difficult it was to find the links to complain. That there told me that they are not out to protect you should you become a victim of fraud. I did eventually get a refund through them but I will never have confidence in what they can do for me.

In the second incident apparently the seller violated ebays terms with his auction. Of course ebay pulled the auction and notified me but only after the auction came to an end. Being the fast payer that I am I had sent payment via paypal minutes after the auction ended, ebays notice came a day or two later. Now I had already shelled out about $300 on this auction. Lucky for me the seller was an honest person. He notified me that he would be a bit late with delivery and then notified me when the item was delivered and afterwards to make sure I was happy. I could have really been screwed since ebay notice said that I wouldn't be protected since they (ebay) pulled the auction. Of course I gave them a piece of my mind the way they pulled an auction and notified me after the fact and they never replied or apologized. So I just have to say buyers beware, check feedback, contact seller (not that that means much, they always answer till they got your money then disappear) and with cars or car parts see if someone on the message board is close enough to the seller to see the product and report back to you.

Anyway sorry you got burned and hopefully you get your refund. I can't stand dishonest people.

Here's the latest.

No sir the matter has not been resolved. I sent the wing back to the seller UPS Tracking number 1Z610x020343270097 and UPS says that it was delivered on January 19th. The seller says that she/he never received the package and they refuse to give me a refund unless they receive it.

They suggested that I file a claim with UPS to get my money back from them.

I filed a missing package claim with UPS and they sent the original driver out to find the package. The driver was supposed to have the seller sign a form stating that they did not receive the package. Once that happens, UPS will start the claims process. Even though my package was insured for $1300, I will have to produce proof that the wing was worth $1300 for UPS to consider paying it. UPS will then review my claim and may or may not pay it.
UPS has chosen not to pay 2 other legitimate claims I've had in the past. Bastards!!

This is what I believe happened. The seller needed money for christmas and so they sold the crappy aftermarket wing as an NOS piece. I bought it. They took my money, spent it, got caught selling crap, couldn't afford to refund my money, received the wing and hid it. UPS gets the blame, they get the money and the wing back. I'm waiting to see if the seller tries to sell the wing again.

The legal term is "theft by deception" and I just had the same thing happen to me on eBay and paid via PayPal. Neither will do anything about the seller or assist in resolution.

Looks like the crook FUQUED another E-bayer. That makes 4 in a row and 5 total. E-bay does nothing and the world goes round.

Man what an eye openning experience this is!!!

UPS DENIED MY CLAIM ON A DAMAGED PACKAGE. SAID IT WASN'T WRAPPED PROPERLY. YOU CAN APPEAL THEIR FINDING. I DID AND THEY PAID MY CLAIM FOR THE DAMAGED REAR WING. ALL I NEEDED WAS A COPY OF MY E-BAY SALE PAGE ,SHOWING THE ITEM ,IT'S NUMBER, AND THE SELLING PRICE.

I worked for UPS years ago in the claims department and we were instructed to always refuse the first claim. If the claim was disputed then we would look at the size of the customer and refuse it again if they were not very big. If the person was persistant then we would pay the claim. If you insured the part for $1500 then that is what the value is. To prove the value all you have to do is show them the auction and an invoice or the money order for payment. If UPS still refuses you can request mediation.

I cant believe people kept buying from him after looking at his feedback. What are people just not paying attention or what....

I as well have been burned by this guy. I bought a set of 69 Firebird grills that were repops and was told they were NOS. This pile of SH*T need to be taken down and I will do my very best to end his dealings on e-bay. Please help me and inform all of his folks that bid on any new auctions that this guy is a FRAUD!

WARNING FRAUD!

send Vince to bust his knees!

I can have some of my scambaitin' pals take him out, but that's all I can tell you. I need his email address and give me an item, or items, he's selling.
Then give them 2-3 days.

I'll ride with you. But my record has been clean for so long. Well, all good things must come to an end.

I like how the jacka$$ replies that the guy tried to send back repro parts for a refund.

Sad but true, as long as ebay gets paid they will do nothing. I think someone there should monitor feedback and after so many you should either be suspended or put under probation. Then block thier IP so they cannot use another name.

Man I feel for you! I traveled 1200 miles to buy a custome 74 lemans conv.in Florida. Add said runs good, top available. Saw the pics I thought "boy you got a rare find here". Got to FL. only to find engine frozen (350) no tranny and no custome top. Interior was suppused to be white..under the 1/4 inch of green mold maybe it was. Kid selling the car said "I'll ruin your e-bay rep if you don't pay me" Told him to stick the car in his "lower unit".. (I wasen't that nice) and left . Never heard from him again. I have seen the same place put auctions under other ID's BEWARE of "courtesytowing" in Altomonte Springs FL. on e-bay. On the other hand found a nice car a 73 GP on ebay and have been happy ever since...LONG STORY SHORT.. Those who misrepresent on e-bay should have their KNEES REMOVED with a blunt instrument...tHX John H cincy Oh.
