So. I listed a EPYC 7742 ES CPU/motherboard/128 gig of ram for $1500 and I accepted an offer for $1400 from a user. I got like $1200 net after shipping and fees. So they ask for a return, since it is "not as described". They did not accept that ES stood for engineering sample. EVERYBODY on ebay lists CPUs as ES all the time. Anyway, so I contest the return. They still take the buys side. So I create the shipping label for return and send it as an ebay message to the buyer.
So.... First, ebay deducts not only what I got , but the entire sales price of $1400 plus $20 shipping from me (double fees). I provided the return shipping label on the 8th. I called them today to say can they get the user to return the item and they say "no, you should have provided the label by the 6th". The user can keep the hardware.
So ebay gets double fees on a $1400 item, plus the user gets a $1400 piece of hardware for free. All because they believe his lying stupid ass. Its a scammers paradise.
Never sell on ebay ever again.
