I’ve had several buyers stiff me over the years. You can dispute it but all you get is a refund of the fees. They won’t even allow you to leave poor feedback. eBay doesn’t want to do anything to discourage people from using their platform.

Anyone win something on eBay they didn't really want to win?

Are you asking whether you should go through with the transaction?

No. I already paid the man. Having buyers regret.

Now I'm laughing at you too. Ha! What, was this a charity auction or something?

No. I needed new running shoes. The shoes I require are pretty expensive.

Why would you ever do that?

Why on Earth would you bid on them

Don’t pay for them then. Yeah, it’s sort of a sucky thing to do, but it is what it is.

Ok, Pinkman, you pay for them. But you’re not obligated to do so.

SuperTank

2/12/18 8:41am

You're absolutely obligated to pay for them. It's a binding contract.

Moot point. I paid him. I don't weasel out of things.

I’ve been selling on eBay for over a decade. It’s not that big of a hassle.

Doubt it. Not even close to the same thing, though.

Lol, whatever. Don’t like the facts of how ebay operates? Then whine to ebay about it

Take advantage of people? How is anyone getting taken advantage of? Have you ever sold something on eBay?

SuperTank

So here's the thing...

Here's the other side of the argument from a CBer perspective

I think there's a Big Bang Theory about that. What a great show. It truly tells

What size are you?

11 / 11.5 depending on the shoe.

Mister P

I don't do second hand shoes. The feeling of someone else's foot in the insole?

fulano

The insoles can be replaced.

Mister P

2/12/18 9:03am

in this case yes, but in general, its just somewhere I can't go.
