Ebay is the worst.  Stopped this year and never looked back

I stopped years ago when they changed the rules that no seller can leave negative feedback.   First sale when the new rules when into effect -  I had three buyers not pay after only having two buyers not pay in all the years
selling prior to the new rule changes.  That was it for me.  No more ebay.   
I may one day go back and sell on ebay but it will be cheap books…..but I highly doubt it.

Been selling on hipcomics as well as eBay and the staff over there are super friendly. A lot lower fees as well. 

How has your overall experience been with HipComics? I'm intrigued, and I signed up for a free account. It looks like it's a monthly fee to sell and then a 9% final sale fee? Is the shipping as seamless as eBay?

If the box is shown as delivered, the Post Office won't do anything about the insurance.

 Not true. If the box arrived with the contents gone, the insurance will cover that.

If you still have the receipt of the parcel you sent...

Surely you could show the weight Of it, which would prove it's not an empty box.

Weird that they would be so bold face, and add the seller to the block ebay buyer list thread

 

Tried, they didn't care. Looking into filing a mail fraud complaint.

oh and a good place to sell your comics would be

mycomicshop.com

there have been many threads lately where the owner explained the criteria, and everyone espoused it as a quality site  

 

I'll check the site out, thank you.

Do you have the buyers ID so we can block him?

Seems like a new buyer with a "0" rating. Yet, they took this POS claim over a seller with over 20k in sales this year. Makes sense (not). Not sure if I am allowed to post his user ID.

Did you insure the package? Should be able to get your money back.

Yes, I did. However, it shows a delivered, so I am not sure how I can legally file a claim with the USPS.

I'd contact the postal inspectors. I've had it happen a few times.

Yes, this is what I am doing today. Unreal the whole experience. Years ago, there were so many online auction sites. Now, basically one. Sucks.

You're allowed, there's a whole thread just for that

I've had good luck with claim sales on Instagram.

I think you can change your buyer requirements, under X amount of feedback, do not allow bidding/buying.

I've never sold there, but have bought there and been pleased.

This is why I left. They side with a buyer with 0 feedback who signed up that day over me who's been there 23 years. eBay takes all the money and none of the responsibility.

I sell on Facebook sometimes. 

I keep all the money

Check out shortbox app.

 

Also,  several boardies have recommended"  what's not" app

 I heard good things about that app but is it still USA only?

I think for now.  They will expand soon though.

Intnews, sorry that this happened to you. We are still waiting for the buyers Ebay ID so that we can block him. There is no reason not to share that to help fellow forumites.

I no longer sell on Ebay as well

[intlnews]

Tried to message MyComicShop and wanted to sell/list Amazing Spider-Man #2 CGC 7.0. They offered me less than half the actual value. Strange.  

 

 

Still fighting with eBay and have officially filed a complaint with USPS.  Will continue to post on my battle with eBay and the POS user; which I'll also post his/her username too. Just waiting for the case to be closed one way or another.
