Can we just take a minute to admire how sweet this man is to his pets? We know who really runs the show around there, and it’s not Pete. 😉
Yeah man, pets are awesome, sadly they go to heaven too early sometimes.
@@AlexanderRodriguez-ni4kt you’re so right! I’m just glad we have the chance to make they’re short lives happy, comfortable and loved while they’re here!
I was totally loving him trying to give his cat the box. I do the same thing lol. He's so great!
The cats the real boss...bless the little critter:-)
U can tell by the way rubys feathers looks like. Its all clean and fresh thats a healthy parrot 😋
"There are some characters who abuse this system," is an understatement. I stopped selling on ebay 12 years ago because every. single. thing. I sold was having the buyer trying to scam me by claiming it didn't work or wanting me to refund them and let them keep the item. At one point, the last straw, really; I sold two matched Radeon video cards and the buyer claimed they didn't work and wanted a full refund - and without permission sent back ONE card. Just one...but wanted the refund for both. I had to get eBay involved and they found in my favor at least. I'm not sure what gene it is that some people have that makes them so dishonest but I don't have it. I've never figured out how to be like that to other people.
I stopped buying anything from Ebay because of my last experience. I ordered something that was listed as new in box, but when it arrived it was clearly wrapped in saran wrap, not factory shrink wrap. Also the unit inside looked like it was cleaned with Ajax.
The same people looted stores during the riots.
democrat, lack of morality

I’m going to avoid the last commenter and anyone’s need to make it about politics. I will say you’re in a diminishing minority group it seems to me but I’ll say integrity will never go out of style for me! Thanks to everyone who has a moral compass that they guide themselves by.
You're such a pro at this. You have admirable self-control and a killer poker face. The cons don't detect any anger or judgment from you. 👍

I would do bad things for those animals to have their own channel if u get what I’m saying ;)
Imagine going through the trouble of sending back a 10 dollar knife.
Yes that is crazy! I'd have kept it. I they probably thought it was bigger. Lol
I’ve done the same for Amazon, even packed it 1000% better than it was when they shipped it out to me even though it had arrived as broken, and drove it out to a freight forwarder. All because I understand that engineers and the supply chain need and may even value real examples of what went wrong, and what can go right. Knowledge easily trumped that article’s value that day. So when yours arrived well-packed and not broken, you can thank me, or at least if it isn’t ok, not curse me.
@Anthony: Re your "Imagine going through the trouble of sending back a 10 dollar knife."
More than that is the reason: "I changed my mind"!!!
Personally, I wouldn't put the other person to any sort of trouble or loss just 'cause I "changed" my mind. Not gentlemanly.
And if at all I went through a change of mind I would be willing to compensate the other person to a reasonable extent for their time, trouble and potential loss of business.

@U S A so your time is worth 10$ ?
@@sarahwaters8262 10$
Ten Dollars , sorry for putting it in the cents side , I didn't mean to offend you , don't report me please
$56 scam is a lot of money for me as a seller, glad you took the action you did!!!
in my experience ebay always sides with the buyer so good luck getting his money back
Let's get this right first: $54,95
Ebay never rules for the seller
Only sellers with limited experience or no track record say that nonsense “eBay always sided with the seller”. I’ve been selling on there for over a decade with thousands of high end transactions and eBay has had my back more times vs siding with crooked buyers. If eBay is not siding with you as a seller, chances are…you’re the problem. Just saying
The buyer is the one who wants his money back.@@speedbird737
I've been selling on ebay since 1998. Ebay will 99 and 44/100th % of the time side with the buyer. I sold a 1995 POTF star wars ship (at-at), brand new, sealed because I bought myself from Toys r us. It contained 2 exlusive figures. The buyer returned the item claiming it was used. Guess what he sent me - a similar used item missing the figures and other parts from 1996. Ebay sided with him, refunded the full amount after taking $25 from my account for the shipping. The person got my new item and probably sold it. Ebay has become a haven for scammers because of their lenient return policy. You can't even leave negative feedback as a seller anymore.
The parrot and cat's interaction at the end is awesome. I watch it when I want a feel good moment. I like the way you tactfully handle misbehaving customers.
Agreed. I think their interaction might be the best part of the video!
I must say that was pretty cool that the two of them get along or so it seems, haha. Interesting that they play together like that.
Seeing a parrot dance was hilarious and adorable😊
This is why I videotape myself opening any returns so they can't claim they sent the right item when its clear they didnt
Good point
I thought of doing that, but wouldn’t you need to get the video of receiving the item from the shipping company and then opening it?
Good idea!
TheRockBoS
It begs the question, why are you still using videotape. when Videotape has not been commercially used for
over two decades?
Have you not examined using other recording technologies such as digital?
Recordings are recordings either way, but videotape is considered old technology.
@@andrew_koala2974 if I were to guess, he is merely using “videotape” as synonymous with recording.
I stopped using ebay because I sold breakers to a guy. The breakers were 1 day past the arrival date (not sure why). He put in ebay that he didn't receive them on time. So ebay told me to refund him while he still has my breakers. So I'm out the breakers and the money. People are learning how to scam ebay better and ebay just falls for it
Had the same, but ebay payed the buyer out of their pocket.
Amazon pay out the buyer I think. Maybe it's better to do it there
Hahaha, cats love boxes until we suggest they go in and all the sudden they're like, "What are you doing?! Don't you know i'm claustrophobic?!"
I caught that to. It's like whoa, I'm not going in there if that's what you WANT me to do. Cats have their own mind.
LOL....NOT going in that box because you want me to!!
If you want a cat to go in a box tell them they can’t go in the box
Don't you mean, "clawstrophobic"?
Customer spends and hour and $5 in postage to return a small $9 knife he ordered....You can just tell customer has an exciting amazing life with not a lot of spare time to waste on petty issues.
No. The buyer doesn't pay shipping. Ebay forces the seller to pay shipping if the return is anything other than "changed my mind"
But even if the return is a buyers remorse return the buyer can still get ebay to pay them back the shipping after they won the claim. And 9 out of 10 the buyer wins the return claim. No matter what. I know because ive gone through this a few times with very expensive items.
What the seller has to do is open a fraud claim. They make you fill out some paperwork and 9 times out of 10 ebay pays the seller back. Or 10 out of 10 for me.
I was in retail alot of years,believe me you see everything
People are strange and have lots of time on their hands
😂😂
@RGJHDFR6TGYR5 how would returning an item qualify as a fraud case? Makes no sense
He deserve it to be scammed that Pete
Until you do this day in and day out, you don't realize how much work it actually is. Especially with the Internet allowing folks to much better determine items they sell or donate. Ebay needs to support these sellers against these petty scam artist buyers.
This is another example of why I stopped selling on eBay. People are straight evil $&?!
Just found your show, totally dig it man. Having been in retail for over 50 years and just retired, watching your show helps to remind me why I don’t wanna go back into retail! LOL You handle the customers great and I’ve already learned a few things that I thought I already knew from you! Too bad that I won’t be able to put it to work as I’m not going back into retail! I’m going to kick back in Montana smoke a cigar and enjoy life. God bless you keep up the good work!
@iAm Yup, Fortunately not that many people know how to work on their gear. I always had people turn things on, try things out, before they left the shop.
I wish I was in Montana right now. Hope you enjoyed that cigar sir. God bless from NY.
“That plastic piece will break if you put too much.....”

“Qwuaaaaack” 😂
Ruby steals the show
I love how he interacts with his pets. The bird is gorgeous and his cat is so pretty.
Totally agree!
I hate when people are sneaky and return the wrong item. It is so frustrating. I hope this ends well in your favor. In my experience it has not ended well for me they've sided with the buyer.
You have to admire this man for loving his animals ❤️
Your love for Honey and Ruby just shines through in every video! I love watching you three!!!! The Ruby dance was my fav!
I love how Ruby turned around to dance with you. :)
Great video... showing how to stop a summer on eBay.
Pete showed a few moves when testing those BoseCubes….
I love the way he interacts with the Cat and especially that beautiful bird. The dancing thing really made my day. How is it possible that a bird knows how to dance and gets so personal. Peace in the world, thank you sir.
Ruby The Dancing Queen, yeahh💃
Its not the money its the principal Why should people steal from you and get away with it They need to be punished and or banned from ebay
I love when Ruby yells! It makes my day! That girl has something to SAY!! It’s amazing!! Be well, Pete and Crew!!! 🤣🥰🥰😆😂
I want a craigslest hunter tshirt with a picture of Ruby that says "you wet chicken"
Sam Buffington that would be cool
yessss
Dude why do think he spends all that time with the parrott on the show. Hes tryin to get syndicated..Gotta love the internet.
During a shower they do smell like "wet chickens"!!! Lol
I'll wear one of those also......"wet chicken! LOL.
Thank God for honest sellers like you,these scammers use your time and money to live.every 50$ is salary you worked hard for.
You can tell hes a nice guy by the way he treats his animals soooo cute
That’s parrot #17. The others were plucked and eaten over pas Thanksgivings and Christmases. 😂
I have never seen anyone love and tolerate animals like I do.. until NOW! ;)
ugh customers do this all the time to me on ebay but they can't fool me...also i get the scammers that use threatening coded words "give me a partial refund just because or i can leave u negative feedback" this is actually a violation..tell ebay... they can't do that especially if nothing is wrong with the item and they wont return it
Thanks for being a dad to your animals. I mean, a real dad. And, even though you're a Hawks fan, you like hockey and that's cool by me!
i hate buyers like that....they think they're so smart and can always get their money back.
Wait until you you come up against a buyer that has a "good friend" working in the post office...customer (buyer) places "hold" item at post office....probably after the mail is already on local route for delivery that morning....so now the tracked item looks like it's being held at post office...and never been delivered....and when the seller checks for the item's location at the post office...naturally the item is missing and not at the post office....meanwhile the buyer actually has the item in their hands from their friend that doesn't scan it and files an "open case" against the seller for undelivered item worth $1,800. Buyer then relaxes and sits nice and smug with their $1,800. item waiting for their $1,800. refund...meanwhile seller (me) is working my azz off to locate lost item and I then have to write up a lost item case against the post office for the $1,800. item. Customer (buyer) places "hold item" and his friend delivering mail does the buyer a favor by not scanning it at delivery....this scenario will cause the seller intense grief. It's rare, not many buyers know this....but if a buyer wants to scam....it's the perfect way!!!
I should let you know the conclusion: as soon as the buyer knew i was filing a lost item with the U.S.P.S. for the $1,800. and was not going to make a quick refund to him ( it was going to be a long-drawn out process) ....incredibly, he instantly found he already had and put the item in his collection and didn't realize it cause it was showing "undelivered" on his E-Bay postal tracking so he filed a case....nice!!! He was very apologetic...just an incredible mistake on his part.
Ebay and their policy of protecting scammers will be their demise if they don't get their act together. I'm a seller too, and I'm not going to be there much longer. The stupid policies against sellers combined with their outrageous fees had gotten WAY out of hand.

I stopped selling on ebay because of too many returns---ebay always sided with buyers. Tired of giving stuff away and the cost of postage.
How many is too many?
@East ßeirut Interesting, I've been selling on eBay since 2008 and I could count the number of dishonest/scamming buyers I've dealt with on one hand.
Bernie’s Bootlegs I’ve had a lot over the years, depends on what their buying and how easy it is to scam I guess. You’re lucky lol
It use to be that way but the past 5-6 years they did a 180 catching on to these con artists. At least that’s how it’s been in my experience. Sorry you had bad experiences man, puts hard working people out of business all to save a couple dollars, it’s sickening.
@East ßeirut yeah, I don't really sell high value items (like more than $1k) online for this reason.
I just can’t get enough of Ruby dancing!! It’s really the funniest thing ever.
The coolest bird I’ve ever seen.
the best part of the show
Type cockatoo loves elvis. Watch til the end.
Best part of the video!!!

Please let the buyers also know that this could be mail fraud.
It is internet mail fraud, a federal offense. But the buyer can argue he accidently sent the wrong item back. If he has a paper trail of doing this, he should be reported to USPS inspector general.
i see it as mail fraud, it is a lot easier to be honest. most folks are. it's the few dishonest folks that make it hard on everyone. scammers and cheaters suck.
I use to sell TurboTax software on eBay. EVERY TAX SEASON I would get several returns that claimed the software was “defective”. I ALWAYS list “No Returns, Exchanges Only”, meaning I will ship a replacement version, but eBay ALWAYS refunds the customer. What a crock. Asshats get free software…
Kitty didn’t want inside the scammer’s box 😅 it knew
It wanted all 9 lives intact.

Thanks, Ive gone ahead and blocked the buyer thedollfreak from bidding on my items! :)
dubbledrop Vintage, l did as well
@@raenman64 how do you block buyers?
@@kenmaylin4744 , go to selling on your eBay, on the right side of your Selling page scroll down 2/3 of the way to "shortcuts", 3rd option is 'Block Bidders". Click on that and you will see 'Block bidder/Buyer". Click on "add Buyer to list". You will then be able to add any Buyer to that list & they cannot buy from you. Very useful when you run across Buyers who are or you know will be a PITA if you sell to them.
@@raenman64 Yes Sir !.. only been selling about 3 months and got a couple of them for the list already.
You used to be able to lookup what a buyer has bid on or bought in the last 30 days. You could also see the kind of feedback they have left for other sellers and buyers used to get negative feedback. This was helpful for sellers to know who they're dealing with.
Besides the blocked bidders list, you set your buyer requirements to block buyers with 2 or more unpaid item strikes in the past 12 months. This block was helpful on 5 or 6 of my items as several nonpayer were blocked. I wish sellers would use this block.
I just love to see the Kids playing together. Carry on Stay Safe
Had a store on ebay and closed it last year because of all the nonsense. Ebay virtually always sides with the buyers, no matter there reasons or proof you have otherwise. Ebay even took money out of my account to give a FULL refund to the buyer even though I had previously addressed the buyers complaint and refunded 50% per the buyers request. I didnt argue, and then ebay refunds the full amount. So now the buyer still has the item and 150% of the purchase price. What a nightmare mess. I was so sick of it that I just quit selling.
Add to that the negative feedback they slap on! Not sure how much more abuse a person can take.
People are scammers with a million different moves.... what a waste of time and money and EBay should be more diligent with stopping this
Scammers wake up everyday with one thought in mind: How can I screw someone today??
I love your pets. They are definitely interesting characters.
Omgggggggosh he has the prettiest kitties!!
WHAT IS A CUSTOMER HAS ALLERGIES??? THATS SO UNPROFESSIONAL ...
@@bleedgreen4221 Well , people with allergies don't need to shop there.
Dude I've been watching you for years, have always loved the videos, but never really comment. But I have to say Pete, that shot of you and Ruby dancing ABSOLUTELY makes my day. Something about it is so wholesome, and in a world of so much negativity during this pandemic, thank you for giving me that chance to smile. Cheers.
Another trick you can do is mark items with an invisible (UV) pen to know whether or not an item was swapped for a bad one. Also anti-tamper decals are good to prevent parts swapping return scams.
Its amazing what people try to get away with when they scam
Beta Hifi machine is certainly worth repairing, I would happily buy that one. But I'm too far away.
I sold a part on ebay, on the last day, the buyer opened a return. In the back of my head I was ready for a scam. They ordered a $217 part. They returned a bar of soap with an Amazon invoice. I recorded everything from me walking to the mailbox, getting the package, and opening the package. I was refunded the price of purchase, but was out the shipping cost of return. Always record everything!
What does a wet chicken smell like? LOL
It smells like a wet parrot.
Like a dry chicken with water added.
Regardless of how much money is involved, fraud is fraud and all honest traders like us are the ones who used to foot the bill, the tables are turning and this is no longer being tollerated.
What happened to honour, probably went the same way as respect.
As times change, the biggest difference is the incredible erosion of social trust. I think of examples just in my lifetime, such as how we pay for gasoline. Not that long ago you pulled up to the pump and the cashier inside would switch it on. You filled up your tank and then you'd go inside and pay. (With a personal check if you wanted.) This is just a one small example.
I appreciate you making this.
I sell on eBay as well. Run into these situations far more than I ever should. People need to be more aware of how to handle these problems. This is a great step by step on how to handle it. You did it perfectly.
I find these videos so enjoyable and informative with your easy manner, of course your little menagerie enhances them too. Thank you for sharing.

There’s losers out there that do the switch a roo often. It adds up. That’s their business. If they do 20 switch a Roos a month and out of those they get a refund for 2 of them they came up. They turn around and sell the item and profit. A lot of human garbage out there.

BOSE CORPORATION, the most overpriced sound systems ever made. They make my eardrums bleed and cause massive migraines. Never heard any of their products referred to as audiophile quality.
Why so many Bose bashers? What do you care? Don't buy them and shut up.
@@joeshmoe781 I have repaired so many of these for customers and even relatives over the last 12 years and they are overpriced crap made with inferior parts. The speakers used are extremely low quality and the individual components have high failure rates. I am an electronics techician with 35 years of design and technical experience. Like a car mechanic, we are entitled to our personal opinions.
@Andy Tee Everyone has a specific preference for their "ideal audio system". Some like the surround sound experience that movie theaters like to have for their patrons, while others like the intimate sound stage presentation, found at a jazz nightclub.
Some want to recreate the high decibel levels of a live concert, while others like to recreate the sound qualities of a well built acoustically designed environment, such as a symphony hall.
Your ears are your best guage of what you are trying to achieve. Listen to as many sound systems in the showrooms at the better audiophile stores. It's a long process and eventually you will find the sound qualities that truly appeal to your ears. If your ears get fatigued or start ringing after a listening period of your favorite genres, then pass that system up.
Some people like a heavy exaggerated bass, some like the realistic reproduction of a vocal performance, others want the precision realism of a jazz ensemble. Soundstage, depth and the accurate reproduction of the human voice and instruments are your basic criterias. If it gives you goosebumps and when you close your eyes and emmurse yourself with the subtle nuisances of the music, then you are halfway there. Don't get carried away with the fancy lights, buttons, switches on the components. Don't get fooled that the bigger the speakers or the number of individual speakers automatically will reproduce better acoustics. Wishing you the very best with your investment. Happy ears and a happy wallet are your best friends. 😉
@Andy Tee A really great speaker that has been high on my list is the ELAC B6 series 2. Amazon has this available. Even the first edition got very high marks for quality and price. You can check out the hands on reviews. The receiver reviews can also be researched on RUclips. Check out the newer Class D amplifiers, or if you like the vintage stuff, Yamaha and Marantz made excellent products. Many are still operational and still going strong and built in the mid 70's thru the 90s. A more current production integrated amplifier that I like is the PS AUDIO SPROUT. Around $500
@Andy Tee The ELAC speaker is their DEBUT model
It has become necessary to take video of opening return packages.
Why lol you think ebay is gonna look at that?
It doesn't really change the outcome. Ebay has no way to know if you already opened it and resealed it
eBay won't give one shit about any videos or photos of a returned item
You need to take a full detailed video of the item inside and out and of you packing and shipping it, also put hidden marks on the item that cannot be easily duplicated and photograph/video them before shipping.
@@dougs7367 why? what does this do exactly? im all for making sure the BUYER knows you have the serial # written down (as a preventative measure from any trickery), but as far as EBAY goes I have yet to hear any case of eBay actually looking at a video or taking any of this evidence into account. the video would only possibly be useful in a lawsuit
I used to own a scarlet macaw named Poppy and a blue macaw named Blue. They were incredible. They used to eat out of my Irish Wolfhounds bowl with him. I donated them to a zoo for their breeding program.

Yes please do!!!
"Changed my mind" would result in a refund MINUS my cost to ship it the first time.
Nerys my way to overcome this issue is listing the item slightly more expensive (just enough to profit and cover shipping), so that if anything were to happen the costs would be factored into that transaction. I try to offer free shipping with all my products even if they’re listed slightly higher, because most buyers will often completely skip or filter out a 5$ item with 10$ shipping but are more willing to buy a 15$ item with free 1-2 day shipping. You can also spread your losses over multiple items so you’ll calculate losses into your pricing. Buyers aren’t aware of all the fees we have to go through so they couldn’t care less, but if you make it so you profit regardless of the outcome of the transaction, it’ll hurt less. I also factor in whatever shipping insurance will cost, I noticed that when buyers are informed that the package is insured they’re less likely to file a fraudulent report because USPS and UPS actually show up to their doors and investigate. Try to find any way to make up for losses, when I started off as a new seller getting hit with 15$ out of pocket fee to ship and sell a 30$ item sucked, but over time I learned to not let it get to me because the cost of business was factored into everything I sold. Right down to the cost of ink to print the label and gas to take it to the post office.
What an idiot that guy is, changed his mind over a freking $9 item that probably cost that much in time and postage to return it!
I NEVER put free shipping on Ebay when I was selling, and because I was shipping very heavy usually crated items I would get idiots asking "can you combine shipping?" REALLY?? how do I "combine" shipping on a 75 pound CRATE that is sized for one sculpture? The ones who protested the shipping costs or wanted a discount NEVER bought. After a while I just started to include shipping in the price, I figured the cost to ship it to zone 8- the furthest one, and rolled that into prices, so a $199 item that shipping in a 70# wood crate was $275 to your door instead of $199 plus $75 shipping, the shot down the ones who went on about the shipping cost, sorry but Fed Ex charged a pickup fee per package, a residential pickup surcharge, a fuel surcharge, a $12 handling charge for any shipment (wood crates) not in cardboard, there's a higher rate at 71# v/s below 70#, transportation charge, residential delivery surcharge, taxes, and then even charging $75 it still didn't quite cover the costs.
@@goldcrownkingmod Yeah! Why not just jack up the cost for everyone, even if they're innocent? That way you can make THEM pay for the losses you incur from scumbags. Charge for everything! Pad the cost wherever you can... charge them for everything you can think of... even for the toilet paper you use when taking a shit while on the job! You're a straight-up kind of guy... Just the type everyone enjoys doing business with.
As a seller myself that means BAD FEEDBACK. Sadly it's more worth it to say fuck it
That should not even be allowed...
I absolutely love cats, and that one is wonderful.
When I was in high school or just after, my sister brought home a black and white longhair cat, tuxedo cat, she had perfect hair that was completely symmetrical.
That cat lived for close to 20 years before one day she never came home. She up and died somewhere.
I’ve been trying to find another one that looks the same.
Yours has similar mannerisms.
Love this channel.
I was at an auto parts store one day when a customer
came in with a box. He wanted to return this truck grille
he had special ordered. The parts man pulled the part
out of the box to check it & found the customer had
painted the chrome grille flat black. The customer
tried to argue that he had not painted it, but, the box
stated on the label FORD F150 CHROME GRILLE
Plus, the partsman said he could smell the fresh paint.
The idiot had not test fit it to his truck and he had
special ordered a grill for the wrong year model.
The partsman made him eat it. He was SO pissed.
Well, dont do stupid stuff.

So you ask Ruby why she has to be noisy when you’re recording...you must know the answer, it’s precisely BECAUSE you’re recording 🤣😂🤣😂 I enjoy your videos and love Ruby and Honey, especially Ruby dancing with you!
Seems it's a good idea to video *_every single_* return as you're opening them, no dispute with that evidence, no way for the buyer to say they did indeed send the right item. Good job.
BTW ... pronunciation tip: Haverhill is pronounced "Hay-vrill" _(yeah, we say stuff weird in New England ...ha!)_
If only eBay took any notice of a video, 2 weeks ago a buyer returned me an empty mobile phone box, I videoed the whole opening and the weight on the label etc and I’m still fighting with eBay to listen to me 😩
Thank you, I was going to correct his pronunciation of Hayverl too, I'm from CT but lived in Boston 🤗
Worcester is a good example.🤣
Someone did a switcheroo on me for a game I sold. Lucky for me is the game I sent had marker on the front of the disc and the one they sent back did not. They sent back a copy that didn't work. Ebay took my side but still refunded the buyer with their own money. Eyeroll
Yeah this is a big reason I don't sell on ebay anymore. I have seen several people make videos about selling on ebay just to have a buyer do the old switch -a-roo on them. And unfortunately ebay does not always get it right when the buyer is clearly scamming. I had more issues on ebay with buying. I got so tired of sellers misrepresenting their items over and over so much so that I have basically stopped buying on ebay. A couple years back I actually got so many partial refunds from idiot ebay sellers that ebay messaged me and told me I had received too many partial refunds in a certain period of time and I was not going to be able to receive partial refunds at all for 6 months...What a joke... My hats off to anybody that can put up with ebay's B.S...
@Craigslist Hunter: I don’t use ebay, but noticed your clip title and was interested in the nature of the scam and how you would handle it. You handled it like a pro! As you stated, it wasn’t a high value transaction, but the purchaser needed to be held accountable. Maybe you will convict their conscience. Wishing you continued success!
Changed my mind? What a lousy excuse.
😂😭
It's happened to me with a $14.95 record album. The guy "changed his mind" and Ebay let him get away with it.
Tell that to my wife 😢
On a $9 knife too!
How much was the postage?
Are people really this tight with money?
I would only refund the amount they paid for the item and not the shipping.
I had listed a clothing item and included two photos with a measuring tape to show the width and length of the item. The buyer returned it saying it was too small. Apparently they didn't understand what the measuring tape in the photos were for. It was exactly as described. I refunded the purchase price but not the original shipping nor the shipping cost to return the item. If there was a defect that I over looked, then I would have refunded the original shipping.
When you escalated that return case to eBay's customer service you most likely lost the case. Everytime I escalated a scammer return eBay sides with the scammer telling me they can't be sure what the buyer returned was the same item I sent. I had a tablet returned with a broken screen after the buyer had it a month the one they returned has a different serial number and eBay sides with the scammer. Since I escalated the case I had no recourse.
Bill Stoner wow that’s is horrible !!! I hate “ the customer is always right” policies
I keep seeing people say that. However my experience over the years has been different. Ebay has always came through whenever a buyer tried to scam me. Even had a couple big money items that woulda ruined me if they succeed in the scam. Thank god Ebay and Paypal stood up for me!
@@chekoz77 I sold 2 ATV side panels in the OEM packaging for 500$. Buyer started a claim and said "He put used panels in the original bags, I want a refund". When I, as the seller read that, my heart sank to my stomach. I thought to myself that I had saved them for 15 years and this is how it's gonna end up??!! Surprisingly Ebay refunded me the selling price, but they also refunded the buyer!! So he got 2 brand new RARE items for free. Not right, but at least I got refunded and he sent me back the now old useless items...
I'am Your Newest Subscriber Great Videos
It’s pronounced Hāvril. Not Haver Hill, even though it’s spelled that way. We have all the weird names here.
Omg poor Honey thinks you’re going to send her away lol 🥰
This got a whole lot more interesting when the macaw came out.
Seeing him start dancing was so cute
I got distracted by rubies beautiful color blending in the feathers...my gosh she’s so lovely.
i love your channel and love your honey cat and bird ruby i will keep watching and your so calm with people i love it.....prosper my friend
eBay customer service is pathetic, got to rune bay biz with ability to eat losses from scammers or else it doesn't work. I have thousands of eBay positive feedback but haven't used eBay in ten years and never will again
I would let them play for a little longer what if they distort after bass kicks in idk
True
Rubby is like give me that bell honey
thanks for showing us how you deal with a wrongful return !
2:27 ….. I like your style. You seem like a cool cat. If I used pawn shops, I’d frequent yours. 15:12
People are just awful and dishonest start making a no return no refund policy on everything buy as is. I guarantee they expected to get their money back and they're going to sell the item that they bought
It's a shame he had to waste his time over a $10 item
Genuinely kind man who wades thru all kinds of crappy people and stays positive and nice. We are visiting Chicago area soon from Michigan and will def be stopping in!
