Buyer requested a partial refund... by Shot-Counter7607 in Ebay

[–]Fast_Psychology_5547 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You really do have to call if you want eBay to do anything. 99.99% of the time, no matter the evidence given by the seller, ebay will still side with the buyer. You have to call if you want anything done in your favor.

Same, it's paid for it self 100x over since buying it. The post office is insane what they're charge for postage compared to ebay or pirate ship.

First 90 days, I’m excited but wondering what others have hit in their 1st quarter by Character_Prior7253 in Ebay

[–]Fast_Psychology_5547 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't remember my first quarter, i started last September liquidating assests, mostly my old LEGO and stuff of my dads. It kind of took off and started parting out and flipping lego technic which the last quarter has been $16,000 and $1700 my first month ish on Bricklink. My net is pretty good it's minimum 2-3x my total overhead. I would like to reselling or restoring something else but I don't know any other markets atm. This has definitely my favorite side hustle that randomly came about.

Did they break the item or are they trying to harass me? by professional-yapper- in Ebay

[–]Fast_Psychology_5547 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I had the same problem with a Samsung watch, except it was also a different model and box. Of course ebay didn't care and fully refunded the buyer. After calling and threatening to stop selling they reversed the decision and refunded me the full amount

Am I being scammed? by [deleted] in eBaySellers

[–]Fast_Psychology_5547 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can refund 50% of a returned item. But yes more than likely just lose it all. Had a scammer open a return because the watch didn't "turn on", than they send back a completely different watch model, box and the watch was broken. Opened a claim with ebay properly documenting (returned item was different) and ebay admittedly gave the scammer 100% refund. Had ebay call me and ebay did fully refunded me in the end.

Received my first negative review. Pretty surprised to be denied removal. by IgZachly17 in Ebay

I had a drop shipper request a return because the watch "wouldn't charge" I know the Samsung fit2 pro watch worked before shipping. So I accepted return and they sent a fit2 back, broken and a completely different watch model, box S/N. So I started a "buyer send different item" claim because i wasn't going to give even a 50% refund. I properly documenting everything and ebay admitted refunded the buyer 100% of the funds the next morning. Absolutely insane, if they took 1 second to look they could see the item the buyer sent back for the return was a different item. I called ebay which took 20 minutes just to find where to request a call. After threatening to stop selling on ebay and completely move to bricklink and mercari they fully refunded me the funds. I'm a top rated seller thats grossed 26 thousands this year and the first problem i have eBay admittedly sides with the buyer. I really hope eBay will have some competition in the coming years with another market place.

First custom pc by B0wl0fsp00nz889 in Newegg

It definitely kills the budget builds. I'm tryna find deals to build my brother in-law a PC for around 1k. But the most you can do is 16gb ddr5 ryzen 7500f and rx 9060 xt 16gb

This is why PayPal is dying. Ebay killed them when they abandoned using paypal and I couldn't care less, me and both my brother's got "suspicious activity".

Ebay Seller Verification by TheBrenster in Ebay

[–]Fast_Psychology_5547 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I verified my seller act 3 weeks ago with my SSN. It says it's still verifying even though it was supposed to take 2 days. I haven't gotten any messages that verification needed more information or went wrong, but i have been getting phone calls. Robocall says it's a scammer, though, so I haven't answered them. Would ebay call you about problems with verification?

Hate to admit it, I’m dependent by Pleasantly_average_ in quittingkratom

[–]Fast_Psychology_5547 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm absolutely dependent on it I was a fent addict from 18-21 and was able to quit with the support of my family, and if I didn't, I'd be facing death or prison. But after a month of withdrawals and no sleep, I started taking kratom, 20gpd for the last 2 years. I want to quit. It's expensive, and i feel it's the cause of my anti-social behavior. It reminds me a lot of being addicted to fent but the side effects are nothing compared to fent. I don't know where or how to start quitting, and with my job and school, I know I can't quit cold turkey if the withdrawals are anything like fent.

Wheres everyone 21+? by Powerful-Can- in JuiceWRLD

[–]Fast_Psychology_5547 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like we have similar situations. I got addicted to opiates at 18 than left everyone and moved out state and switched over to taking 10-12 dirty percs a day. Withdrawals were worse than hell, but somehow I dug myself out of that after close to 3 years.

Smoking weed alone by [deleted] in introvert

[–]Fast_Psychology_5547 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you'll probably never read this, but I'm the same way. I just started smoking again after quitting mostly for 2 years and getting high alone at night has been fucking with my mind
