buyers demand for refund of not satisfaction on 55th day of using mobile or threat for negative feedback.woooo.

ebay india is surviving only due to its genuine employees like RAJ,ZUBIN & MANY MORES

future is dark but we know we will beat up the evils and move on.

Hi Everybody,

I am writing here for the first time. I used to read other sellers' posts and used to thank god that I had not faced most of the problems mentioned by them. Its not that I haven't faced any problems at all during my four year selling experience on ebay but they were very few and not worth mentioning. There were all kinds of problems - unreasonable buyer demands, non-paying buyers, lack of support from ebay, chargebacks, etc. but today, I am facing a problem that is different from all of these.

A seller, memory-tiger, http://myworld.ebay.in/memory-tiger/ has copied 150 of my listings word to word alongwith my original pictures and listed them very cleverly at Re.1 to Rs.5 less than my prices. I complained to ebay and they asked me to report the items that were being copied. I started reporting but the process of reporting is so slow that it would take me forever to report all of them. I asked ebay again for help but all they could do was to advice me to contact the seller directly. It is interesting that the same ebay had marked a violation in my account when I copied a picture from a seller on ebay.com. Anyways, I did as told. The seller was prompt in making an excuse that he was not actively monitoring the ebay shop. May be the staff had copied my listings and he would remove them all within 3-4 days. It was fair enough. But, even after 15 days that seller is still using my listings as it is. Here I would like to mention that out of these 150 listings atleast 50 are for such products that can not be found in the market at all. The others may be available but may not be the same shape, design and brand as mine. SO, I am surprised at his carelessness. Where from will he get those products if they are sold? He has blindly copied everything even the products that bear my brand logo. I am loosing a lot of business because of this nuisance seller. Has any of my fellow seller's experienced anything like this before? If yes, can anyone suggest me the ways to handle this matter. I am really disturbed and feel all alone. 😞

Hi Anil,
We faced a similar situation last year, though our products are loose diamonds & jewellery. Though same products are available in marktet, yet none of the genuine or old sellers copy the same title/description or list it for Re.1/- or Rs.5/- less.

The seller who harassed us was new at that time, though a powerseller now (will not like to mention his seller id, though if he'll be reading this will certainly know), he copied the title, the whole description & listed the items for Re.1/- or Rs.5/- less, we lost a lot of business, because with 800+ listings, we just couldn't revise or keep a track for such a small difference. We ran from pillar to post, TnS, account manager, category manager, but no help. Finally though tedious, but we did the same thing as that seller & finally a lesson was learnt by him. As he was a new seller & we were 500+ feedback powerseller with 100% ratings, thus his sells not only dropped but stopped.

He finally had to start thinking & apply his minds. Well, he is doing great now & no issues. Hope this can be of some help to you.

Best Regards,

Eerlier we were getting 1 fraud in 100 buyers but now we get 10 out of 100 buyers because Sellers cannot leave leave any -ve comment on buyer.

Now BUYERS are king on ebay and they now know how to get Items for FREE by exploiting the ebay's rules. They know they can get any Item for FREE if they file dispute the item as NOT AS DESCRIBED or DUPLICATE ITEM and gets the refund along with the FREE item with them.

Ebay know about this and keeping silent over this.

Some of my known powersellers has left ebay platform due to this because they made loss on this ebay's partiality on Buyers & Sellers.

I hope EBAY is reading this DISCUSSION and should know that every Sellers want the old feedback back so that other sellers know which BUYER are FRAUD.

All the best to all sellers
