ebay.com Beware Ebays double payment scam for listing fees consumer fraud ripoff San Jose California
Beware listing your items on ebay! Recently I setup an account to sell an item on ebay and noticed for some reason I had two listings for the exact same thing I specifically marked the quantity as 1 on.
Needless to say if I hadn't double checked my item before any bids had been placed this scam could have gone unnoticed and double charged for the listing fees with nothing I could do about it!!!
Apparently this is a very common ebay scam because I was lucky enough to find it listed on ebays Faq's page detailing me the steps I had to go through to reverse the fees as long as my inquiries met three requirments, the first being; My listing could not be listed for less then $1, Secondly my listing could not have any bids placed on it, and thirdly the auction could not be ending within the next 12 hours!
Any way you look at it, you will have to wait 30 days before you money will be refunded if you go through there refund process and not the banks like your some kind of f***ing loan agency, loaning them money for 30 days and in some cases them not having to pay it back.

IF YOU HAD BEEN MORE CAREFUL AND ONLY LISTED YOUR LISTING ONCE, NONE OF THAT WOULD HAVE EVER HAPPENED. EBAY ONLY LISTS EACH ITEM *ONE* TIME, UNLESS THE PERSON OPTS TO HAVE ONE ITEM LISTED IN *TWO* CATEGORIES WHICH OF COURSE ENTAILS ANOTHER CHARGE.
THERE WAS NO RIP-OFF HERE! JUST BAD PLANNING ON YOUR PART!!
