Threats and offensive language appeal
A seller didn't like my negative feedback. I feel it was very much warranted. I don't often or easily leave negative feedback.
There was no threats. No offensive language. No racial slurrs etc.
They just didn't like it and thus reported me to eBay.
I appealed.
And eBay reviewed it and said they are upholding their original decision.
Any rational human would see my feedback and see absolutely nothing wrong with it.
What can I do??

Mentor1 year ago'Scam' is a bit of a slanderous vibe and eBay may remove the feedback.

Mentor1 year agoIf your feedback has been removed then there is nothing you can do.
I suggest you just put it behind you.

OP1 year agoHow is that reasonable or fair?
Seller doesn't like bad feedback, so reports as threatening or offensive and eBay rolls over?!
eBay once again backing bad sellers.

Mentor1 year agoIt's neither but then neither is ebay.
Interestingly there are legal changes that will make it much harder for feedback to be removed.

OP1 year agoI really don't get it.
eBay protects sellers more than buyers but buyers are what make eBay money...
A seller can be a very bad seller AND lie, eBay says that's fine and puts a black mark against the honest BUYERS account!?
That's fine. I've gotta accept it?!

Mentor1 year agoYou've told us what you didn't say, but to suggest why it was removed we would need to know what you DID say.
eBay has specific rules about what must not be mentioned. for example, the most common is mentioning eBay's involvement in getting a refund, but there are others. Feedback policy violation entitles the seller to ask eBay to remove it.

OP1 year agoIssue is it's now deleted... So I can't see it ... eBay also doesnt say what or which bit violated.
I always keep my feedback short and to the point. So I'll try and recall;
I mentioned the seller claimed it to be brand new but item was worn and grubby, felt like a bit of a scam.
It was one short sentence like that
