Any avid eBay users here?

I use it all the time and have never had a problem with it. Until now.

I bought Rugby League Live from an Australian seller for $65 (it started at 0.99).

He was selling quite a few of them, had 100% positive rating and it appeared that in the past he had mainly sold DVD's / PS3 and Xbox 360 games.

Anyway, I bought this item on Tuesday and still have not heard back from him. I didn't think much of it until I logged on today to find he has just received a negative rating from someone who also bought RLL and hasn't heard from him or received the item in 11 days.

What am I able to do if it gets to this point? Is there anyway to receive my $$ back. To further complex things I paid via bank deposit, stupidly, because I normally pay via PayPal. I did this as he requested it would be easier, so I figured "why not". Now I'm worried as from my understanding there is no real security unless its via PayPal.

P*ssed Off.

Fkn annoying, never had this before and I've bought a lot of eBay. I just wanted RLL for a reasonable price. Why? WHY I ASK YOU?!

Well that sucks.. Next time you should just pay a little bit extra and buy it from the stores.. Saves the dramas.. However I know how you feel regarding ebay.. The sh*t is addictive..

I haven't used Ebay in about 5 years.

I tried selling something online, and it didn't sell - then they expected me to PAY for the advertising services even though I wasn't able to sell my product. I was like HELL NO I ain't doing this ****!

That's when the harrassment kicked in. Email after email, then they started calling my home phone! They would not stop! I was going nuts.

Eventually they fckd off and blocked my account. Never going on Ebay again lol

I still have to set up a paypal account tbh. Any idea how I can set up paypal?
Just go to the website and register.. You will have to confirm your bank account first before they can take the money out.. Or you can set up a credit card and you can pay straight away.. Paypal is awesome..

go to the paypal website, or do it through eBay.

eBay is just so friggin' addictive! For example, I bought seasons 3-5 of Boston Legal, brand new, for $55. at the time Season 4 and 5 were $60 each, and season 3 was $40. So thats a saving of over $100.

It's times like that I love eBay. And its times like this I hate it.
