    This is unbelievable but then after selling on eBay for a year, I can believe it. I got scammed once by somebody claiming the game I sold them didn’t work and wanted a refund. It worked fine before I sent it to them so I even suggested reasons as to why and what to try to get it to work. They sent back a totally different copy however I took photos of the serial number unique to each game which was in my listing. I challenged them and asked them to send my game back as this wasn’t the one I sent them. They apologised and said that they sent me the copy they bought AFTER they realised mine didn’t work (this transaction took place over the course of 2 days). They told me that they sent mine back but I never received it. I said that I wasn’t prepared to return their game until I received the one they sent to me in error. They claimed I was stealing from them by doing this and threatened legal action. After taking a step back and weighing up my options, I decided to refund them and block them because it wasn’t worth the hassle. I reported the buyer and after the fact, I checked their account - the feedback they left for others was almost always negative. How does a buyer like this get that far? Why wasn’t the level of negative feedbacks they were leaving flagged up by eBay? They didn’t leave me feedback but I think I could’ve gotten it removed pretty quickly.

    • @SamsonTV

    I listed official strategy guides so buyers could choose from the selection menu, and one idiot thought I was selling all four guides for one particular price .It was obvious that I was selling individual guides because I had a selection menu. I have never had a problem with anyone except that guy .He's requesting for a return because of his own stupidity .I am a very small seller,so I can't even imagine what big Ebay sellers go through.

    I agree you described the pants correctly, but separating the pant size and 3/4 length would be a good idea since some folks don't take the time to read thoroughly. I listed s Coke coin bank that looks like a full size Coke machine. It sold then the buyer asked to cancel the order because he thought it was full size. $15. for a full size machine. LOL I'm a new seller and I appreciate your educational videos, thanks!

    Looks like an extreme case of buyers remose turned unethical. Also might be an entitlement issue.
    Also, just to cover all bases, just showing the username does not constitute revealing of personal identity? It seems to me that it is not though, though I would be really careful and not leave any incriminating information in case I get hit with some kind of law.

    • @SamsonTV

      I'd contact eBay and make the case that the buyer wasn't acting in good faith by agreeing to one thing and then asking for more the next day. Ask them to review the messages. Not a slam dunk, but that might be enough to get it removed. I now always use eBay for Business on Facebook Messenger. Generally takes 1-2 days for a response, but they seem far more willing to work with sellers than any of the people you get on the phone.
