eBay Seller Return Scam

[Kleepernop]

Thank you all for the advice. I was able to get my money back.

Long story short I was finally able to talk to EBay’s high value claims person. PM me and I’ll give the details of how to do that if your want to know. Anyway, and I speculate here, it looks like eBay saw my long and honest history, an forced the hand of the scamming seller.

PayPal was helpful and told me I could file a claim with them as well. I figured my best bet was with eBay first. I didn’t get much momentum with the police or USPS. I figured that would be the case but at least it made me feel better! I did get to tell the cop how much her work is appreciated despite the other BS in the world. She appreciated that.

So all in all, my loss was a lot of time and being out $4.5k for over a month, but it ended OK. I love the hobby, and will continue investing (that is the word I use to justify it to my wife!!). But I will remember this scam and think one more time before buying.
