Jeanel Ward Review of eBay

I wish I had read these reviews before selling on ebay. It's a scam that only benefits the buyers.
I sold a rare item on ebay for $260 and was told the funds would be released as soon as the buyer received my item. I did not want to accept returns because I am moving and did not want to deal with the hassle. The funds were not released to me, as promised, because the buyer is saying the item arrived broken (although the buyer could have broken the item after receiving it so they didn't have to pay). I was initially told by at least 3 separate ebay representatives that I was protected as a seller and I would get my money.
Finally, after I was getting nowhere, I spoke with an ebay manager who told me there is no protection for sellers and I will lose the entire value of my item except what I could get through filing a claim with the USPS (only $50). After countless hours and headaches, I have filed a complaint with the BBB. It is not fair that whenever ebay "investigates" a claim the buyer automatically wins 100% of the time, even if you say that you do not accept returns. The seller ends up losing money every time.
I urge you to think twice before selling on ebay. It's a scam!!
