Account Suspended for Shill Bidding After Neighbor Bid on Item

Internet & Web

Yet another Ebay ripoff! These guys decided to suspend my account for "shill" bidding because a person that lived in the same town decided to bid on one of my items.

So what does Ebay do. Suspend my account with several of my auctions currently running and all being bid on. Than they have the nerve to tell me that I will be paying for those auctions.

Maybe its just me, but I believe that there is something in our laws about paying for a service that you never received (AKA Advance fee fraud)

So now to taking care of the problem, You could talk to someone online realtime, but all you will get there is a canned response, you could contact them via Email, once again... Canned response if your lucky to get one back. Or you could call there customer service line. Only do the last if you want a good laugh at the human ability to know absolutely nothing.

Now to what I am doing about it. Ebay wanted to point a finger but forgot that they had a couple pointing back. So here goes the smear campaign. My goal is to take at least 1 customer/seller from ebay for every 10 that they have, and in hopes that will compound to an enormous amount.

In closing, if you have thought about selling on Ebay and you still want to do it feel free. Just make sure that you sell your items to people that aren't close to you, because we all know that everyone that lives in every town knows ever person that lives there with an Ebay account.
