eBay scams beware

[Able Fella]

I was very close to getting done a few years back, if it wasn't for a member staff at the post office I would be down 3.5k! Good luck with your case.

Did the seller have positive feedback, I wonder if they can fake that?

Sorry to hear about this and I hope you can get your money back, as someone else has said if it was by card then you might get some joy taking it up with them.

At present theres a posch cutmaster on ebay (search under firewood proccesors) they have no feedback and based in the Shetlands I smell a rat but apologise if genuine.

I thought if paypal they can reverse payment. But thats probably why they have their own "helpline" delays to get away.

Gutted for you buddy.

 

Appreciate you taking the time to posts a warning on here, so thanks. I've seen a few to good to be true deals mainly on gumtree for tractors. They always seemed to be driving a deal though ebay buyer protection but as soon as i firmly say it will work like this, "I come and view I then do instant bank transfer then i take it away" they are not interested.

 

Again thanks for sharing.
