Have you ever been defrauded on EBAY?

[undeterred]

Its only happened to me once, for around $35. I had been in contact with the seller a few times and he kept saying he would send the item and I never received it. By the time I looked into how to reverse a paypal payment it was past 30 days and there was nothing I could do. I filed a complaint on EBAY but nothing came of it.

However, within a few weeks he was kicked off EBAY because 3 out of 6 people he did business with gave a negative rating. I gave him a negative rating, (and he gave me one) and unfortunately couldn't do anything about it.

All in all I've had pretty good luck, but I'm really careful now about sellers with hardly any feedback.
