What's with people on eBay!!??

Brian Lee · Mar 19, 2012

I have recently sold a Jeremy Lin card on ebay, so everything went well, I got his money, he got his card, we left each other positive feedback. Then out of nowhere, he sent me a message asking if he can get a refund, I asked him why? he said it's because he saw the same card being sold for a third of the price he paid...

I am not a bad person but I think I would be stupid to refund his money. I hope eBay won't allow this kind of behaviour. I mean he had an entire month to play with the card, then now he decides he has overpaid, and don't want it anymore.

What I fear is that he decides to rip a corner off the card or sent an empty package back, then file for a claim... that would SUCK big time...

You have left each other positive feedback - isn't the deal done by now?

Overpaid - yeah prob other reason is knicks are playing like crap though won 3....

That is the risk you take when buying ANYTHING!!!

With both parties having left FB, and you now also have an email saying the REAL reason why he wants a refund, you won't have anything to worry about!

I might go into Woolworths and get a refund on some apples I bought last month because they are on special today!!!

Is that only because the apples are now rotten?? Seeing as I bought them a month ago?

You would not believe some of the retarded people out there. This is one of my favs "I bought these potatoes a month ago and they are green", had no idea how to tell them they were retarded.

Maybe they ate one of them and got drunk! Can't you make alcohol from fermented spuds

Buyers remorse at it's best! He was the silly person that paid what he paid for it, thats not your fault, no one forced him to buy it... No one held a gun to his head... I would just politely reply with a "No, you bought the card, you paid the money and left positive feedback so the deal is done. It is not my problem you have buyers remorse"

It's the way the hobby goes!! I have actually expected a lot more of these stories to appear!

It's like some idiot that I could name who bought a lot of the Channel 9 cricket stuff and now sees it advertised on Ebay for a 3rd or less of the price he paid for it! We all regret at least one (or more) impulse buy, but it is what it is - they buyers decision to pay the amount on offer at the time.

Just tell him to put the card back on Ebay for a third of the price and you'll buy it back.

The tell him that he paid the market price then and you are paying for the market price right now. Problem solved

Paulie T · Mar 19, 2012

Just think of the 1st deal as a done deal. - end-
If he thinks he could of bought it cheaper, he should of thought about it before buying,
Its a win win situation from there.

A_Iverson_I · Mar 20, 2012

Hahahaha wow..... what a nerve of that guy LOL. Overpays cause of the hype and now that it's died down he's not happy and wants a refund LOL. WOW!

Pretty sure the same thing happened with a Blake Griffin Next Day auto... and the buyer ended up winning. This guy's obviously a clown, and should get NOTHING, but I hope for your sake ebay aren't their usual stupid selves...

Brian Lee · Mar 20, 2012

I think he is just giving it a shot... he has been polite so far. I definitely take no responsibility on a card that was sold for market value at that time, I could have got even more if I sold it earlier but I did not complain.

araiee · Mar 20, 2012

classic case of linsanity settling down! like anything you cash in when the going is hot...the silly douche should have the sense to realise this and is hoping you will be soft enough to bend...what a moron!!!!

KB. · Mar 22, 2012

He paid obviously what he thought was a fair price, and that's the risk when you bid on ebay!

What's with people on eBay!!??
