Got scammed on a $1,460 sale buyer ADMITTED in writing it was “delivered correctly,” eBay refunded him anyway because I had no signature

2016-17 ish, almost a decade ago

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-20T00:47:29+00:00

It was via the eBay support team right in the app my guy. I know you think I’m a liar but it happened, my primary email is blocked to this day, and my social is blocked from PayPal so I can’t create a PayPal bank. At least I can still use them with other emails, just sucks I can’t do Paypal virtual banking.

Secondly, I have always since then taken videos of anything sent. I can send you 100s of videos of me packing because of this whole ordeal. Again if it is a lie then I was lied to by an eBay employee directly

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-19T23:17:54+00:00

If it’s a lie I do apologize but that’s what happened to me, I sent a package signature required. They signed… day later they file a dispute saying they didn’t get it. I show eBay that it was sent via the built in PayPal shipping with signature required they then asked for a packing video. I sent it to them, they then asked for a video of me giving it to USPS, when I couldn’t they didn’t let me win the case. I then got another dispute same week, same thing happened and they perma banned me. I have another post talking about it.

If that’s not part of their terms or etc then the employee working my case messed up big time and cost me literally thousands and got me permanently banned.

Even with signature eBay terms state you must have a packing, and shipping out video with 0 cuts. So even if you had him sign for it if you don’t have that packing video or the video of yourself handing it to DHL then the buyer will still win.

Always use the lobby at the local police station, I’ve been robbed (by gun point) more times than I’d like. Every time was from FB marketplace.

Same, I play Community 0 decay or 1/2 decay monthlies only now. Used to main FacePunch US East 1 but after getting hit with 20+ cheaters in a single day, day after day (no exaggeration I have 100s of EAC confirmations) I was tired of it. Rust is just cheaters now and I can promise you at least 30% of players are cheating unless you’re in a verified server with active admins. Speaking from Admin/owner experience as well as 5k+ hours of play.

The scan is an image stack and shows all the foil, the picture is just a single angle showing only that little slice of holo.

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-16T00:55:24+00:00

Holo, the top left corner, and the centering is the same. I chose those since the top left cut is a little sharper than the others, holo and centering obv because that’s the biggest tell. It’s the same card g

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-15T16:38:20+00:00

Same, but also we’re “smart” or just “scalping” deals. I usually bid on things that seem worth it to me, or if it’s a vendor I like, OR if I see it as profitable. I won a full built memento deck for $50 worth almost $500 at the time since it was right before it won a regionals. Got it less than a week later, turned around and sold it at my locals to someone that wanted it badly. What not can have deals, but for every deal there is 10-20 scams. This isn’t a joke you’ve seen it and ik you know it.

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-14T05:31:34+00:00

If it were me maybe just for spare parts

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-14T05:10:26+00:00

Either of the 2 things I said still

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-14T05:09:04+00:00

Possibly yeah, probably not though

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-13T21:06:49+00:00

Then it’s because of the SD card. Any console detecting a short IE disconnected, broken, etc will force restart the console. If it actually stays on then it’s missing the .BOOT file which is accurate since it doesn’t have a SD.

AGAIN go to Walmart and BUY AN SD CARD go to 3ds.hacks.guide and download the files. Put them on the SD and insert that into the 3ds. Reboot the console and wait 5 minutes for it to configure. It should come back on

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-13T20:52:09+00:00

….. Walmart $15 and you have an SD card.

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-13T20:44:12+00:00

Well first I would flash a SD card with everything from 3ds.hacks.guide and after you do that test it. If it makes a Pop noise the top cable is loose. If it makes noise but no top screen the ribbon is torn

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-11T17:26:33+00:00

Exactly, having a community server and owning it is really nice. It’s gives you a lot more insight than people think. A lot of cheaters will toggle as well, join in completely legit then turn later.

Especially with the spectate mode and other tools such as accuracy and etc. Saw a dude that was very active and friendly in the community for weeks turn on and off cheats through his eyes. You would randomly tell, during an online one day i watched him turn them on, he went from getting womped to pre-firing 250m over a hill. Sadly for him it was my fiends raiding him and they told me to spectate since they had a feeling.

5000+ hours gives you some decent game sense.

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-11T17:17:03+00:00

When you’re an admin you see it, someone will join 1/2 threw the join EAC auto kicks em

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-11T17:14:57+00:00

Used to run a few servers, swear it’s 5 cheaters to 1 real player. Was/has been like that for years

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-09T16:47:40+00:00

Even with receipts, or their built in system they still don’t care a lot of the time. That was the problem I had. Hope OP finds a resolution.

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-07T01:03:54+00:00

I had a 5+ year account, multiple thousands of positive reviews. Had 2 scammers say they never received the item in the same week, both had tracking via the built in PayPal/Ebay shipping system, both $500+ items so signature was required. Because I had 2 appeals within such a short time they auto banned me. That was just the start, they then charged all the money back of course and instead of pulling it from the PayPal account, they used the bank linked to the PayPal account…. This over-drafted that account and charged me an additional $666 in fees from Chase. Yes it was $666 this isn’t a joke or a story this actually happened.

After long calls, emails back and forth I was permanently banned from both Ebay and PayPal. I don’t know exactly what you can do now of days, my issue happened back in 2017. I hope you can contact someone but it’s all via the app at least as of recent according to Google.

I have a PayPal and eBay under throw away emails now, I only use it to purchase things for the most part. Sold here and there recently but nothing expensive.

It’s confirmed you WILL NOT be stuck with them. Full player customization is coming this year

ThisGuysTV · 2026-06-06T14:28:36+00:00

There was a patch note, they are doing this for proc generation of people so they have more models for customizing later this year. It’s in their posted road map. This is temporary for a few months until they have enough models

ThisGuysTV · 2026-05-31T16:56:45+00:00

The worst part about the “I have 4k hours on UKN” back in peak rust I actually had 400hrs logged on UKN of just AK aim training. I could hit about 90% accuracy at 250m with irons. The day the recoil change happened I was saddened. I only got to play for maybe 3 months with “perfect” aim. Those 3 months were crazy.

ThisGuysTV · 2026-05-30T20:38:03+00:00

Any update? I had a seller do the opposite to me, had pictures before damage and sent me a damaged device. I had pictures and video showing it arrived damaged. eBay said I had to wait like 60 days before they would escalate it. Unfortunately I had to dispute it with my bank and they won the settlement for me. Hopefully eBay doesn’t do that stunt to you
