Ebay Hats: Victories, Defeats, Gripes & Items of Interest

[Cane Rod Maker]

Beautifully done !

:eusa_clap

Q: Do you mean call me out as this person called you out???? HAT DIDN'T FIT. BUYER DIDN'T CARE. ACCUSED ME OF BUYERS REMORSE. OFFENSIVE MAN THE "je*k off" SEEMS TO BE YOU AND YOU SHOULD MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS AND WORRY ABOUT YOUR OWN TRANSACTIONS.

My reply: Yeah, that's right, I am "calling you out" cowboy. Further, we are NOT talking about me here, but YOU. YOU are NOT selling in good faith. YOU are reselling an item already purchased. YOU are in violation of Ebay seller policy: "YOU'LL need to complete the sale. Not completing a sale may be a violation of our selling practices policy and may lead to limits on YOUR selling privileges."
YOUR User Agreement states:
While using eBay sites, services and tools, YOU will not: fail to deliver items purchased from YOU, unless the buyer fails to meet the posted terms, or YOU cannot authenticate the buyer's identity. GOT IT? GET IT? GOOD! Do. The. Right. Thing. YOU. Loser. YOU give all sellers a black eye, go away if YOU intend to behave without honesty & honor.

Funny thing, greed...

It looks like what, '50s Knox that's missing it's liner? (It doesn't look '30s to me... but I could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.)

And they think they'll get an opening bid of $186?!?!?! lol lol lol

What an idiot.

Cheers,
Tom

PS I saw their reply to your feedback, Jeff... Suspicious buyer! lol OK, a buyer with over two hundred transactions and 100% positive feedback; yeah, that's plenty suspicious! Oh, and possibly with TWO ebay accounts! (Oh, wait a minute... I have two ebay accounts! I must be suspicious, too!)

 

[HarpPlayerGene]

I filled a case, but outside of that there in not much that I am aware that I can do..

Lay it all out in your Ebay Feedback on this seller.

Mint condition Borsalino (not mine), made for the legendary "Oviatt's" haberdashery. Probably very late 1930s: http://cgi.ebay.com/Oviatts-1930s-V...27828933?pt=Vintage_Men_s_Women_s_Accessories

Hückel Plume Melone (Bowler)

Hückel Plume Melone (Bowler) probably 1930s could be older. Looks to be in very good condition.

From bohohaus: FYI - you have been reported to eBay for violation of selling practices. YOU are in violation of Ebay seller policies. Instead of reading up on other members issues - you should (as I previously stated) worry about your own eBay issues and message violations.

My reply: Dear bohohaus,

Oh my stars & garters, how very frightening. We will see what exactly eBay considers a more egregious violation of the rules, being a lying @sshole or reporting a lying @sshole. I do not have a dog in this fight. I wasn't the one lied to nor am I the liar. I sent you no unsolicited commercial solicitations nor any threatening messages, unless you consider my declaration to never buy from you & to warn others of your dishonest & unethical practices a threat, which it's not, it's a promise. And your contact info is printed right on your auction. Sorry, but thanks for playing, jerk.



...everyone needs a hobby, eh?

This is the part I love: "SUSPICIOUS BUYER w/possibly 2 E-bay accounts who was refunded 100%."

Well, if the buyer is "suspicious" why did the seller need to refund payment? There is no eBay rule against having multiple accounts unless you are using them to break other rules (like shill bidding).

I don't care how "suspicious" you are, if you pay I ship.

Unfortunately, eBay cannot force a seller to ship an item. You could sue for specific performance but that would cost way more than it is worth and the seller knows that.

Maybe we need a "eBay dirtbags" sticky...

 

[Neophyte]

I wonder what this "Bohohaus" means by "other member's issues"? lol I guess she hasn't heard of TFL lol.

.........Now where did the butter and salt get to?
...Ah, there it is!

At any rate, good luck to you, JeffConnors.

Oh my stars & garters,

lol lol
That made my chuckle a lot

Never heard that one before

Just curious.. what will Ebay do to resolve this?
Is there an expectation that Ebay can/should hold a seller responsible for their part in this business transaction?

Ebay cannot force a seller to complete a transaction, nor can they force a buyer to pay.

Ebay's only power is to revoke the accounts of habitual offenders. Their basic rule of thumb is "No loss, no foul" so if the seller refunds the money they will get a "hit" but unless the seller receives multiple complaints nothing more will happen and the "hit" will go away.

I got the same threat from blowhaus

BLOWhaus or whatever his/her name is, they reported me too....
I'm in the club Rick. I didn't respond though, I do tip my hat to you on yours.

Mission Accomplished

You will, however, note that the relisted item in question ( 250683259490) is no longer for sale. BWAHAHahahahah! :cheers1:

 

[Jim2903]

Just scored an Akubra Fed III Deluxe from eBay about an hour ago. Furious bidding in the final moments ... it will be my first "good" hat.

With a feedback rating less than 100 eBay doesn't cut sellers much slack. That seller has 18 seller feedbacks, one of which is a negative "refused to complete transaction."

Since she also has an eBay store she has a lot to lose.

I reported the greedy little cuss to eBay.

BLOWhaus or whatever his/her name is, they reported me too....

My reply upon finding the auction had ended:

"Ended the auction! Doggone it! Just when I was dying to buy a terribly overpriced hat, rightfully belonging to someone else from a whinny, greedy, liar. Oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles, eh?"

Sometime I just can't resist, well, this -----> :deadhorse
