Buying from eBay US now made easy with Global EasyBuy

I felt very cheated when I tried to use GEB for the first time today. In the morning I identified an item to purchase, the total 'Global EasyBuy' price calculated was INR 2691.

That page is still available here
http://cgi.ebay.in/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180408332881

But when I went to complete the Buy Now process a few hours later the Global EasyBuy price is now calculated as INR 3348.

Why this increase? I feel this is some cheating or profit-mongering on eBay's part.

By the way there is absolutely no need to use this fraudulent 'EasyBuy' service of eBay India, it is much much much cheaper to just buy directly off eBay USA using your credit card if one needs any items from there.

it looks as though there is a huge backlog of buying orders on the GEB site. plus in certain cases as mine, the order had been placed on the 25th of September for item # 330344757790, and the buying process had not been initiated till 29th september and the international listing has ended.

the GEB buying guide states that after payment is approved the International reseller would buy the item within 24 hours. my payment was approved on the 25th itself. hence the time limit for buying would be 26th.
so am not sure if the international reseller has been able to actually get hold of the item.

i have already faced a problem with international item # 370252856850 where the international reseller could not procure the item and has initiated a refund on 25th of September, but the refund has not been reflected in my card account as yet.

so i feel that if this new column is introduced, and if the international resellers aquisition of the item is reflected therein, it would help the community at large, as we wouldnt be on pins and needles wondering whether the international reseller would be able to buy the item for you.




in the interest of ebay, it would be nice if a new colum is added in the GEB paisapay payments which shows the status of the buying process by the international reseller.

it looks like people buying on ebay.in using GEB want to give GEB a premature death. people fail to understand that the international reseller i2cworld_inc is merely acting as their agent. the 6 negative feedback and 2 neutral feedback are left by users who have less than 10 feedback ratings:

eg: Neutral - innovative product Buyer: farhad.bangalore ( 5 ) - Item -390092624779 - LED Projection Alarm Clock w/ LCD Temperature Display

negative - the AC charger supplied with the item doesn,t work at all.improper description. Buyer: dr.praveensengar ( 4 ) - Item -220478832704 - VECTOR 1 MILLION CANDLE POWER SPOTLIGHT FLUORESCENT NEW - this buyer seems to have forgotten that power adaptors of USA are of 110V and need to use a power transformer for converting 110 to 220 V

negative - item not upto expectation. not the same as listed. not at all US quality product Buyer: ansarimajrul ( 16) 29-Sep-2009 13:08 - Item -130330418729 - Case-Mate Barely There Cases for iPhone 3G 3GS Silver

(#180407214497) - worst.fake nokia model.no response from ebay nor the seller. buyers beware! Buyer: ansarimajrul - 360184206755 - New Nokia 7373 PINK Unlocked GSM Camera Phone Bluetooth

my dear friend in both these cases the international reseller has merely taken delivery of the item purchased by you. he isnt selling the item on his own.


Neutral - information regarding the item should be mentioned in detail Buyer: sunny9212223003 ( 0 ) 390092622958 - Digital Dual Projection LCD Alarm Clock w/ Thermometer - the item is described in detail on ebay.com!!

I just dont understand sapana

When we look at the price it shows
Price + US shipping +international shipping..
why an indian buyer is supposed to pay for the Us shipping wherein he is only asking for international shipping
this is cheating...

you can take US shipping which even the buyer does not receive it

Hi as far as i know from our knowledge the International reseller must be located in New York.So the US shipping charges may mean that shipping charges within the US for the International reseller to obtain the product from the seller who is not located in New York.(Ex : Shipping charges from California to New York) Original seller of the product located in California and International reseller located in New York.

I hope this must be the scenario.

I feel ebay is fully supporting big sellers like i2cworld_inc3. I have a worst experience with them as
I bought a high priced item from i2cworld_inc3 and they could not purchase the item from global site ebay.com. My total fund got stuck 29 days. ! I do understand their technical limitation but the worst thing is i2cworld_inc3 dos not respond to buyers questions. After two weeks they informed me that they could not purchase the item from global site !. Hence my refund also got delayed and i was out f funds for about 1 month. When I left a negative feedback for this negligence they removed the feedback in a week through ebay court.
Now you think who is customer here? King or Kong?
I think this system is not practical until unless ebay keep justice to buyers.

Hi Friends,

I made an online payment for a Brand New JABRA STONE Bluetooth Headset to i2cworld_inc3 via paypaisa on Aug 24, 2010 and today is Sept 15, 2010 and there has been no reply from either the seller or ebay itself. Whenever i call ebay they ask me to wait for 48 more hours every time i asked them for an update regarding my product and a paypaisa id 27338148712. Is there any way i can get my amount refunded from these guys. I am pritty sure this was my last purchase from ebay.

yes 12cworld_inc3 is quite funny ...u cannot really be sure if u will INDEED get the order WHEN U Pay.

maybe he will be unable to buy, or maybe it gets lost between usa to india (which happened in my one case) or anything can happen. Its like playing lottery when u buy from GEB..SOMETIMES U WILL GET UR PRODUCT SOMETIMES U WILL NOT ( if u dont then yes u will get refund, sooner or later..hmmmmm.....):O

I m too having a bad experience with GEB. i made payment for item #GEB - 230518133209 - WIDE ANGLE TELE LENS FOR SONY CAMC) on 05-Sep-10 using PaisaPay ID 27496276257.

As usual, an email was received from ebay informing that item has been shipped on 15-Sep-10 with Airway bill details: 27496276257. So i waited but there was no sign of arrival, when i started tracking on www.iccworld.com there was no courier details to be tracked. it normally takes 3-4 days to deliver but in this case 10 days has already been passed but the item never arrived till date. so i wrote i2cworld number of times & ebay itself to review & track the item from their end but to my utter surprise no single message was replied from both side.

Don,t they have sufficient crew members to take care of it? How they could be so irresponsible towards the customer(buyer)? Don,t they have communication skill? i am very much embarrassed!!!
