Doktor Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Made my first eBay sale yesterday. I shipped today and listed the tracking. I'm told the payment won't be made til the 17th. (From PayPal, not the buyer.) does it really take this long? I sold this for emergency $ and didn't realize it took so long. Wtf... Yeah. If you don't sell often, they basically hold your money to make sure you're not a scammer or whatever in case there's a problem with the sale. I had the same thing happen to me on my first half-dozen or so sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ygogolak Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) Of anything I read on these boards, this is the sign of the impending doom. Item as listed: Ghost in the Shell #1 ashcan Me: You left a comment that you will never purchase from me again. Why is that? Buyer: I thought I bought 2 comics not one being a flyer Me: I'm sorry you thought you were getting something different. However, you received what was advertised. Buyer: that's why I gave you positive feedback. but you didn't go out of your way to let people who aren't experts on comic s know that it wasn't a comic so I feel deceived because had I known it wasn't,i wouldn't have bought it,and I don't want to deal with people I have to worry about tricking me. I buy between 300 and 400 comics a month,i deal in trenders only, and wopuld be hard pressed to sell it to one of my investors ,unless your telling me theres no full size comic? I gave you good feedback so how I feel is not important anyway Me: If you're buying that many comics you should be familiar with the term ashcan in regards to a comic. Buyer: well I do buy that many comics and I still don't know what ashcan means and I now have 11 of those itsy bitsy cflyers withj no idea what i'm going to do with them but there are 10 others out there like you who don't warn anybody,and i'm not dealing with them again eather. and no I cant put them back on line because I would have to warn people how small they are and then nobody would buy them,but you already know that Edited May 10, 2016 by ygogolak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Campbell Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Note to self ... if I EVER sell an Ashcan on eBay, I'll make sure to mention it's not comic book sized! lolz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MR SigS Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) Buyer: well I do buy that many comics and I still don't know what ashcan means and I now have 11 of those itsy bitsy flyers :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: He now has 11 (his collection goes to 11) of them, you just got done telling him what it is, and he says he STILL doesn't know what they are. I wonder how many more he'll buy. Edited May 10, 2016 by MR SigS☺ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ygogolak Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 I thought this was the best part: I buy between 300 and 400 comics a month,i deal in trenders only, and wopuld be hard pressed to sell it to one of my investors So this guy has "investors" but he doesn't know what an ashcan is? Is he like the Bernie Madoff of comics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
