eBay

I have been an Ebay member for a few short months and prior to making any purchase I do my due diligence helping to ensure I am dealing with a trusted seller.

Well I was about to make a purchase but did my follow-up. I sent the seller the following as my reason for not making a purchase:

"I was deciding on whether to purchase these cards from you. I am happy that I checked your feedback section first.
Before I make a purchase from any seller I check their feedback, pro and con, and how the response has been to items of issue such as items not as advertised, shipping issues, etc..I have only had one previous issue which was because of an error in advertising and the situation was corrected in a very civil and professional manner.
I noticed that you have a 99.8% positive feedback rate which is impressive. However, numbers do not mean everything. I also noticed that when someone has questioned your items or has service issues you have been very aggressively negative to your customer, calling them “liars”, blocking them, etc.. The tone you set says a lot.
There are professional means in which to address issues then there is demeaning your customer base.
No malice intended. Just a comment; thought you might want to know why you lost this purchase."

This is the response:

"BLOCKED - **bleep**!!!"

If you don't like what you see move along.

What you did was pointless and will most times end badly like it did.

Everyone likes positive feedback.

I guess when you state your reason for not purchasing is unwanted criticism here.

Pretty fragile and **bleep**.

Yes, I did move on and will do so from here.

More to life than Ebay.

I'm sorry I didn't give you the answer that you wanted to hear.

Ya I have to agree with Steve on this why in the world would you even bother with them if you didn't like what yuo see .. Thinking you know he was wrong to reply the way he did is a bad assumption..

I have had buyers threaten me ...Sellers threaten me .I have seen almost all the horror stories ebay has to offer and in this case you should not judge a book by the cover..

Maybe most of the bueyrs who left neg were wrong to do so but maybe not and nobody really will ever know both sides of the story as everyone only has a few Characters to get what they want to say out...

Maybe the Seller has just had enough and turning to a sour bitter ebay seller or maybe they were justified..

Anyways take ebay for what it is a fun places to shop.. Knowing how to protect yourself with your purchases will eliminate having to review and ask questions all the time and limit it to when you need specific info...

I can not even remember the last time anyones feedback made any kind of a factor in my purchases and I have only ever had 1 bad one ,,,, To each there own I guess ..
