I've thought about it... but I expended s...tomcat, <br />I've thought about it... but I expended so much energy dealing with it and have very little to show for it. I was going to push, but frankly I have too much on my plate to continue to try to follow the convoluted complaint process with ebay.<br /><br />You would be shocked at just how ridiculous it is. I must have filled out 4 forms and retold my story on the phone twice and in at least 5 emails to ebay and paypal. My son wanted to sell his old gameboy for Christmas money, and I was afraid that the rating would hurt his chances of getting a good price, so I dropped it.<br /><br />I think the woman simply forgot to ship the items purchased on that day, since the same thing happened to someone else whose purchase was from the same day. I wrote a lengthy note to ebay and paypal detailing the whole thing again and told them that if she had just answered my emails and told me the situation all of the idiocy could have been avoided. <br /><br />Like I tell my kids: Sometimes you make a mistake and you have to say "I did it and I'm sorry", take your lumps, and move on... Maybe that woman will learn the lesson someday...Women on the Vergehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00048207912750733316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37796028.post-5432436017713275912007-01-29T10:23:00.000-05:002007-01-29T10:23:00.000-05:00Hiya Women.

Then if she has a delay from her supplier, so do her customers.<br /><br />But to a large extent here, the fault rests with eBay. You had a documented order from her to back up your negative feedback on her. She had no order from you on which to base hers, giving you unequivocal proof that her feedback was retaliatory. It would not have taken a rocket scientist at eBay to figure that out and remove her feedback.<br /><br />Have you considered continuing your complaint, not against her, but against eBay for the incompetent way in which they dealt with the problem?TomCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11397335545286040472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37796028.post-28176273653061566472007-01-29T10:21:00.000-05:002007-01-29T10:21:00.000-05:00oh, Women!
