Jackson Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 I had a buddy that had a huge crush on flow. Truth. I was on hold with eBay for over 7 hours the other day... In no way is that an exaggeration and can be validated with a screenshot. You know how hard it is to workout to eBay elevator music and every three minutes they tell u to keep holding as ur call is important to us. Why were you on hold that long? Quote
hxckid88 Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Why were you on hold that long? Because the people who answers phones in third world countries can't help me. You have to go pretty far up the latter to get to an American person in seller vesting. This time of year, them having 80 percent of their staff that is for buyers, and the screw up with eBay the other week all. Contributed. The lady whole finally spoke with provided me the best customer service I've very had. Talked to me Off the record. Didn't read from a script. I established great rapor with her. I've been on eBay since I was 16 and through their new defect rating system things are much different. I'm actually going to post a blog or a long version as the information I received I think Wil greatly help many here. Even the vets as to why eBay is changing and many things such as why buyers are always right etc. The women I spoke with, sharron was straight up with me. Speaking of blogs I havnt seen one on here in white sometime.... Quote
Darth_Raichu Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Hxckid88, the Macks are in the process of revamping the blog. It seems like going forward only the members in blogger group have access to create a blog. If you are interested in writing one, I suggest PM-ing Ed or Jeff. Quote
hxckid88 Posted October 6, 2014 Posted October 6, 2014 Gotcha. I did pm ed but I may just do a forum post so others can weigh in better. I don't think everyone even the vets are aware of the new eBay changes and how they will affect you. It sucks but it is what it is. Adapt. Quote
jaylay Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 well, 3 out of 3 Maersk from LEGO Shop at Home and all 3 have some kind of crease on the box from the promo they squeeze in.... why cant they use a bigger box? hopefully once this set is long gone these creases wont matter much ... Quote

Stevenplays Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 When your local Walgreens still don't have the new Collectable Minifigures... I've gone out 5 different times and 3 different stores. At least they had the somewhat new Death Star Troopers pack. Great for the DS or ISD... Quote
mscheaf Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 But but but, there is a War on Christmas, haven't you heard?? The holiday that takes up 10 months of the year is UNDER ATTACK!! Quote
imirish11 Posted October 15, 2014 Posted October 15, 2014 Is there an affiliate link for IRS Official Payments? If not, there should be. [begrudgingly clicks 'Send Payment']. Quote
mscheaf Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 I hate when people send stuff with signature required. Yeah, hi. See I have this thing called a 'job'. That 'job' description does not include sitting on my a** all day at my house waiting for UPS to show up at whatever random time they are coming that day (anywhere from 8AM to 8PM is my local UPS deliveries). 1 Quote

Not taking off work and not driving 20 miles to get it. Wasn't a good enough deal to make me want to make any more effort than I already did. And hi, welcome to paypal, there is no such thing as seller protection. Quote

Darth_Raichu Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 OK. There will be no "I told you so" moment for you so don't get your hopes up too much. I do not need to gloat. The fraudulent buyers can take care the uninformed sellers without any help from me. 1 Quote

Wasn't a good enough deal to make me want to make any more effort than I already did. And hi, welcome to paypal, there is no such thing as seller protection. but do you really think someone is paying $2-$5 extra per package just to annoy buyers or cause inconvenience? delivery signature is valid proof against those claims. ( like dog ate the package etc ... ) they are there to protect sellers. of course one may have to add insurance on top to get the actual money back. Quote
CNH1974 Posted October 27, 2014 Posted October 27, 2014 I too "have a job", so I get the packages delivered to where I work. Problem solved. :) Quote
