I once had some douche nozzle argue with me because the sign stated the sale price, and I charged him the sale price because, well, it scanned at the sale price. The item had the full price on it but he still had a problem with it because he didn't pay full price even though the sign had the sale price???? I don't know. I still get headaches thinking about this one. That bastard scarred me for life.

You know though, I buy and sell a lot on ebay and Amazon, and there are a LOT of dishonest sellers on both. I see guys list things as COMPLETE all the time when they arent. And I actually just bought a Blu-Ray from Amazon that was missing 2 of the 3 discs, kind of like the original post.
I searched, found the disc & read the listing that said NOTHING about the digital copy and DVD being gone and when I received the disc it was open and had only had the Blu-Ray disc in it. Sent the seller a message and never heard back, so you never know. |

So dont sell anymore, nobody forces us to. We know the rules and the fact that seller have us over a barrel. Dont sell or deal with it basically. There are stupid people everywhere, youre not going to get away from them, and if you make your living in retail which I do, you HAVE to deal with them.

Yeah that's an intelligent response. I'll put up with it because I have to. I'm not going to give up because it's unfair. But it's still bullshit and I'll keep saying so and fighting against it til they change.
When ebay changes their damn policy to the point that fraudulent chargebacks don't just cost you the price of the item but HUNDREDS of dollars in lost sales and added fees, that's a problem that I'm not just gonna grit my teeth and deal with. Last edited by Roshan; 01-23-2011 at 09:09 PM.. |

Well there seems to be a lot of points here
1. All seller's shouldn't be treated as liars because there is no seller safety net 2. Working retail means dealing with idiots 3. Idiots are everywhere 4. Seller's can't just stop selling because it's how they make their living As for what I was trying to get at is that it sounded like you said if you don't want to deal with stupid people, don't sell. I countered with "don't sell" may not be an option & I think Roshan was trying to get across that sellers shouldn't have to deal with people looking to rip them off by playing stupid. I think I'm pretty well confused now |

Maybe its me, I have a headache.
Roshan, not really fair to take one sentence and make it out like it was my whole response. Its sucks for us who do it, yes, but youre not going to get away from stupid people. I wish everyone would stop selling on ebay or Amazon for a week. JUST A WEEK! If we could band together as sellers (because, lets face it, I dont think any seller is happy about the crap we put up with) Amazon and Ebay would be FORCED by us to change their policy. Thing is, when youre in retail youre going to have stupid people. They are everywhere. You give them the return because they couldnt read and re-sell it. There isnt much we can do about it except for stop selling. If we choose to make a living do retail, we're going to get this stuff every so often. Problem is, Amazon & Ebay cant/wont review every single dispute. The bigger they are, they tougher it gets, so they set ground rules that we live by. I understand the frustration, Ive been on both sides of it (as a ripped off buyer and a retailer who sold to a moron) but as a buyer and seller I can honestly say (as much as I hate to) Id rather the rules be in place to protect the buyer instead of the seller. |
