UNFAIR EBAY NEGATIVE FEEDBACK! 1st negative feedback given

I am very annoyed with people.  I have done over 200 flawless transactions and am always willing to work with the customer.  However, this case was one that I did not appreciate.  So the buyer bought my item (borderlands 2) and it was in prestine condition and listed as like new.  I tested it before I sent it out.  The buyer played it for 2 weeks then stated that the game stopped working.  The buyer then demanded a full refund and an extra $5 so of course I am going to say no, but I did offer 1/3 of the original price because it wasnt my fault and they are the ones that messed with the game.  It is just unfair and they have no right to leave negative feedback

Ebay fees and Paypal fees explained (2013)

So ebay fees and paypal fees change every couple of years but for now here's how it goes.  If you add any extra things such as gallery plus, picture editors, any enhancers, those all cost a decent amount 50 cents a piece or around there.   But you dont need them.  So ebay charges an INSERTION FEE  for 30 cents when you list an item and charges a FINAL VALUE FEE which is 10 % of the final sale price.  In addition, Paypal charges 30 cents for a TRANSACTION FEE and takes 1.9% for themselves.  Which sucks.  So you can get anywhere from 20% to 85% of your item value depending on how expensive it is.  The higher the final value price the closer to the 85% you get.  I HATE EBAY AND PAYPAL FEES

EBAY FREE LISTING DAYS! SWEET!

Finally! Ebay free listing days arrive, what they are is a week where ebay basically allowed you to post up to 800,000 items for free.  Usually it costs you 30 cents to list an item but that 30 cents can add up and if your selling small items that can be like 20% of your profit! not to mention, ebay fees and paypal fees! so I listed over 100 items and saved 30 bucks! I love ebay free listing days and wish they had more!

I GOT SCAMMED! DVD Scamm

Wow I never thought it would happen to me, but it did.  And I can tell you its the worst feeling in the world because you can't do anything.  Here's the story:  I went on craigslist and wanted to by E.R Dvds which were worth about $100 and he wanted $50.  I offered $40 and he said $45 because of shipping.  He wanted the money through a U.S postal money gram.  That was my first warning! I immediately replied "How do I know you wont just take the money and run, how do I know this isn't a scam?" so he sends me back a sob story that got to me (god I am such a dumbass) he writes " I wouldn't do that, I just got done burying my son and wouldn't do anything that I wouldn't want done to me god bless." So I send him the money, and he said he'd send it once he gets the money.  2 days pass, and I email and I get no response.  3 days, 4 days, I keep emailing no response. So now I'm skeptical, I go back to the original post and see payment info from our company.  Oh god, now I realized I screwed up.  Now I don't know what to do and I'm out about $50.  Well I learned my lesson and I hope you guys don't do the same.  NEVER SEND MONEY, meet in person!  Unless on ebay or amazon.  If your wondering HE LIVES AT 51 High Court Manhasset NY 11021! NEVER BUY FROM HIM, I am tempted to go to his house and give him a little present.......ugh SCAMMERS!

IGNORANT GARAGE SALE CUSTOMERS!

This post is a little bit different from the posts I usually put out.  Here is a prime example of ignorant garage sale customers.  Today I went to a garage sale that was unadvertised, I was passing it on my way home so I decided to stop by.  I get out of the car and start searching through the items for sale.  With some small talk I shortly figured out this lady just got out of a divorce! How sad : (  Anyways, I see this car pull up.  This car was beat up, looked trashy and had a bunch of junk in it.  He practically had a large umbrella sticking out of the window.  I will now here on call him the JUNKMAN.  Well I found this really cool silverware set that was gold plated and it looked very expensive. So I'm just doing my thing offering a price I seemed fair and she sold it to me at a more then fair price because I was nice to her.  She even through in 2 extra things (A picture frame and a glass cup).  Anyways as I'm bring it all to the table, the JUNKMAN who is wearing an aloha hawaii shirt, with glasses and a pipe decides to snatch everything in my hand and continue to say "Are you kidding me? your giving all that to him for that price? you've got to be kidding me, how can you take  advantage of her like that?" and at this point I'm just about to mouth this guy off.  What a jerk.  So he offers her like $2 more than me and just takes the set and puts it in his car.  This infuriates me, how people can be so aggressive like that.  So while he's putting the stuff in the car, the lady gives a look at me like "I'm sorry" kind of look.  Anyways I start looking at the other stuff, and the lady starts to talk to the guy saying "please don't be so rude to my customers, it's my choice whether to sell my things or not" and he says "listen I own an antique store and I know how much these things are worth, you shouldn't be selling it and not getting your moneys worth" and this guy is really scummy and dirty if you ask me.  So I pick another thing out and offer her $2 for it  as a fair price.  So this guy, grips it out of my hand and says "listen if you can't afford it, don't come out here"  gosh did that make me mad, but I kept silent and just walked off.  This guy was just bad news, so what do you think I should have done? I'd really like feedback and maybe I'll try the things you suggest! Thanks!
