Resolved! Defrauded by a buyer
Late last year I sold an item on Ebay. The person complained about the item and demanded a refund claiming it was not as described; he also gave me negative feedback. He was refunded but did not return the items. Within a short time, items identical ...

"simple" delivery
Thanks to this garbage "service" the morons at ebay have generated a pre-paid label which is nowhere near the cost of sending my parcel. A buyer bought three items off me, each would have cost £3.38 to send yet the label from this genius system has c...
Pending Funds
I hadn't sold an item on eBay for a while, and so ignored the pre-paid label and sent the item independently via Royal Mail signed for. The item has been delivered and signed for, but my funds remain pending as Ebay hasn't recognised that the item ha...

The new when we get paid rules from February.
Ebay was always heavily weighted in favour of the Buyers, but this new mad rule thats coming in next month about having to wait two days after delivery is confirmed to get paid is simply beyond the pale. And sometimes delivery conformation never come...
