 cant believe how much i have to pay just to list an item
 
 something like 80p for a item worth 5.60 ( picture
 insertasion  buy now price._)  THEN THERES PAYPAL fees!!
 they are just as worse !!!!!!! what the hek do they do
 NOTHING!!!! there is one granny sitting at a computer
 nodding at the screen whilst toast burns in the background.
 
 there are millions of people just using this auction an
 interface/server thingy and the c)nt who owns it does fak
 all , just rips us all off.
 
 i have lots of little things to sell , y know. bits n bobs .
 this ebay general fat arse  isgonna take thousands off me
 maybe millions before i die.
 
 who wants to storm his boat in Monaco next grand prix?

 | hey weird thing...i can see an american dollar from here.
 (im not american ) but y know that eye on the top of the
 pyramid ....kinda looks like the eye from lord of the rings
 .
 
 actually, it is the eye from lord of the rings.
 
 i reckon this whole planet is run by one bloke....he owns
 many companies ..and those companies actually run other
 companies ..all the way down to the bottom besides family
 businesses.
 
 so shell and texaco are the same bloke...duracel and
 energiser ..sainsbury and tesco ford and honda.  if you
 follow the trail all the way up !! yes!!!
 
 all these previous thoughts re- inspired from an ebay
 fee....see, if it was anymore expensive there would be a
 riot across the land...they have to balance the fees just
 right so they can steal as much energy from us without
 revolt.  modern slavery for ya.

 | that one horrific  thing to happen oxegenfad.
 
 the way you end up losing your sound card and owe your
 friend.
 
 not your fault.
 
 mad isnt it. yet we are so helpless. because we cant grab
 these people by the scruff of the neck its all through a
 computer,
 
 they are invisible,a  force that drains us of our energy
 (money and emotions)
 
 im off to watch some youtube .. forget and let these people
 rule me .
 
 i recon youtube is a powerful tool for these invisible
 rulers to keep us calm during our slavery ...like tv did for
 so many years.

 | The first keyboard I tried to buy on e-bay, I thought the guy just took my money and ran. Finally, almost 4 months
 after I should have received the synth, I get the same make
 and model, but not the unit that was pictured. I was suppose
 to recieve a synth that was immaculate save for one missing
 knob. What I got made me want to laugh and cry
 simultaneously. It had several broken keys, was missing
 every single case screw and almost every knob, had no
 powersupply, had the notes written on the keys in what
 appeared to be nail polish, and apparently sat in a garage
 for 6 months, as it had been splattered a bit by white paint
 and was covered in dust. I was able to get the powersupply
 it required, and it came as no surprise when the thing
 didn't boot up at all. The strange thing, is that the guy
 must have had 2 of the same synth and decided he didn't want
 to sell the working one, didn't have the honor to admit his
 fuck-up, and sent me his old, mistreated original. Luckily,
 I was able to get my money back (or 75%, the maximum ebay
 will refund you on anything, EVER), because I was able to
 provide picture proof that the synth I received was,
 although the same make and model, absolutely not the
 specific unit I was supposed to receive. I don't know if
 this situation would have ended favorably (if you call
 getting only 3/4ths of your investment returned "favorable")
 had the guy posted pics that didn't vastly differ from the
 synth I received. It's not e-bay's fault this guy screwed me
 over, but it's the total lack of accountability inherent to
 e-bay and paypal customer service that has forced me to look
 elsewhere for bargains. A good rule of thumb: don't spend
 any more money on ebay than you would be comfortable
 throwing into a fire.

 | maybe the mail delivery service just accidentally dropped the package off the truck and found it back later only to
 throw it into the plain, covering it in other heavy
 packages, while it later falls off a pile of more packages
 in the local mail delivery service shop thing, and to top it
 off, the mailman drops it and later rings at your doorbell
 to drop off your heavily mistreated and raped purchase.

 | With expensive items it's sensible not to send anything until the money is in YOUR bank account, not PayPal's
 halfway house.
 
 As long as you're careful you should never run into trouble,
 but I admit eBay and PayPal charge sickening amounts, their
 stinking greed is tangible and their customer service is
 non-existant.
 
 It's a shame that there's no viable alternative. If only
 someone out there had the resolve they could make a killing
 by undercutting eBay.

 | ive noticed something too...there are sellers out there that
 take weeks to get a product to the purchaser.  weeks...ive
 been looking at the feedback , the sale dates and the dates
 of the feedback (2-3 week wait on nearly all)
 
 the buyers are all saying..
 
 wonderful item thanks so much top ebayer A+++
 
 really happy thank you for your service AA+++
 
 what a pile of bollocks... they all want to say :
 
 why the Fuk did it take so  long you ****
 
 shit service no comunication 3 week wait,
 
 DO NOT SHOP HERE NO EMAIL REPLY FOR 2 WEEKS
 
 but they dare not because if they do, they get bad feedback
 and it ruins their rating and screws them up.
 
 the seller should not be able to give negative feedback if
 they get their money straight away. that way we can say what
 we feel.
 
 if the seller disagrees with the negative they have to ask
 ebay to remove..or something??
 
 a more honest and less fearful ebay is needed.

 Of course u are right, everyone is scared to leave negative
 feedback so the whole thing is a shambles really. eBay
 cannot be arsed to treat every complaint individually - so
 they just say "negative feedback cannot be removed", fuck
 you! With no competitors they can do what they like, and
 until there is a viable alternative they will not give a
 shit.
