On both ends of the spectrum of being an ebay buyer and seller.
Once I sold a WoW account, and as soon as the buyer got the account charged back the payment.
Another time I bought a piece for my motorbike. Never got anything. Asked for a chargeback. Got nothing.
Did not use their service and I am still livid for their lack of transparency, consistency and honesty.
- helsinkiandrew 3y agoSurely both of these had nothing to do with PayPal? (this is an honest question - I'm not trying to defend PayPal) If the buyer did a charge back on their credit/debit card, PayPal gets charged and passes it on to you. Likewise if you as a seller didn't get the chargeback isn't that on your card company?
- shiroiushi 3y agoFor many years, eBay owned PayPal, so OP was likely referring to incidents that happened during that time frame.
- epolanski 3y agoI don't remember the details, but I remember you could open a ticket on Paypal for a refund if you didn't get your items. So when I sold and the person asked for a refund, he got it immediately, even though he received everything. When I bought and never got anything for months, Paypal refused to even put me in contact with a human for weeks. So on both times I got screwed.
