Game Issued Becomes Game Used

[RMoody]

This guy was a world class jerk me once.

Bought about 3 jerseys from him, when he sold retail jersey 2nds. Tries charging me $45 for shipping on them, then doesn't back down. I refuse to get ripped off because the jerseys sold for a few bucks.

Then he files unpaid item cases, just a disaster.

Moral of the story….don't buy "game-used" stuff off of EBay…..

I have bought many great items on ebay. The Moral of the story would be to do your homework and ask questions.

From what I've noticed on ebay, I'd get more satisfaction throwing a wadded-up tissue at an unpaid buyer than using ebay's strike system. Seriously, did it affect you in any way??

Actually yes it did affect my account, because it was 3 items. Some buyers have account settings that don't allow a person with 2 or more unpaid item strikes to even bid on an item.

Because of that I lost the ability to bid on 10 or so higher end (to mean that's $250+) items. Tried to fight ebay on it, being the same seller and it by not combining shipping he was working around selling fees. Showed them emails where he even admitted that since I got a good price, he couldn't take a loss by combining shipping.

In the end, he got negative feedback, I got screwed over short term as the bidding ban was only 12 months. I never looked at his listings again.
