After 10 years as a Power Seller, I have finally realized what an Evil machine it has become. Corporate Greed is trying to destroy the lives of so many buyers and sellers. We MUST MAKE NOI$E!!!!

Ebay is a sinking ship. Jump to ola.com for a safe protective custody from the slim bags that Ebay is controlled by.

Ebay's financial statement is very questionable. They have opened the doors with policy changes that have lets buyers scam sellers and ebay looks the other way.

Sellers and buyers are leaving by the droves.

Ebay is like a BLACK WIDOW! STRIKE BOYCOTT

2008-07-07T01:19:00.001-07:00

This video is a prime example of how Ebay brings their buyers and sellers together. The deadly black widow spins her web and now they want to fee you on shipping and taxes. What next? Don't you thing 20% in fees is outrageous? That is the total in fees from paypal, final credit, taxes and shipping. Not to speak of No Seller Feedback, Paypal Only requirements, Addisional packaging charges and requirements. Ebay is a monopoly and must be stopped.

Ebay Boycott August 1, 2008 NEG! NEG! NEG

2008-07-07T00:47:00.000-07:00

This vidwo is in response to Ebay's refusal to remove defaming feedback from a buyer who purchased 19 auctions and never paid for a thing. After charging us $19.95 per dispute to have the feedback removed, Square Trade refuses to arbitrate because they have left eBay services on May 12th but yet they never refunded mine or others money.

Feedbak restructured on eBay has shut down many sellers who don't feel safe or protected anymore. After 10 years of doing business solely with Ebay this public service announcement is meant to prevent others from falling into the same trap.

Find alternative sites that have a pleasant atmosphere and hasn't scared their users away. Fees have increased up to 65% for some users already and in August they are announcing that shipping and taxes will be included in your final value fee. As well as requiring sellers to purchase additional shipping materials from them, they are getting fees on Paypal payments, auction fees and now they want us to pay shipping and taxes on the buyers items. The total amount of fees, in all run up to 20% of the selling price of the item you sold. This is outrageous and sellers must move to a better venue.

Wagglepop.com/stores/restore is where we have started but we will not put all our eggs in one basket again and will be reviewing all our new sites on this blog to assist others in finding a save a secure site to do business.

Wagglepop has proven to be very helpful and offers tools for site building that Ebay would charge us for. One monthly fee and the boards are great and fun. Come and visit us there for now. Updates on postings at other sites will be given as we try other sites. Next one is OLA.com. They have one monthly fee of $8.00 and you can sell all you want. Also a neighbor of mine here in Grants Pass so I can review the store and employees.

BOYCOTT EBAY July 1, 2008, August 1, 2008, September 1 etc. That is if there are any users left. The changes announced for August have me floored and proves that Ebay doesn't want our business. Why couldn't they just say that instead of hurting so many?

Ebay Strike! Goodbye Forever

2008-07-04T10:56:00.001-07:00

Thanks to everyone who is willing to help others find a new venue. Remember, it is vital that we don't put our eggs in one basket, ever again. Help others with input about your experiences on line so they aren't left behind.

It is easy to say, BOYCOTT EBAY but all of us must offer an alternative site. This is my opinion of Wagglepop and I have found it to be nothing but pleasant thus far.

Keep tune for my next evaluation. I will be checking out others for you to look at.

That is the only response they can offer to a 10 year Ebay vet? Well it isn't good enough.

2008-06-29T12:56:00.001-07:00

JUST HAD A BILLIANT IDEA GUYS!!

Reply to all the subscribed emails from Ebay stores and let them know that you will be unsucribing because of the Boycott and you will no longer be doing business with the Ebay.com site and that if they wanted to do business on another site you would be happy to re-subscribe to their new store. LOL

I guess Ebay would start listening then and there is nothing they can do about it. You are simply replying to your emails. LOL

Better yet, suscribe to them all and then reply accordingly.

LOL, might cause a massive store closure virus. LOL

Respect my Privacy Ebay Strike! July 1 and beyond.

This one should get Ebay mad but I hope it opens others eyes. I used to think I was the only one having problems until people like crazeenydriver who have given me strength to fight.

I only hope that this video can save others from the pain and sorry of having their business destroyed.

I am embarrassed by my loyalty to Ebay over the past 10 years. All I can say in my defense is that things have changed.

I am no longer dependent to another for my success, diversify! Don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Upcoming videos will reflect reviews of other sites that I will be trying out and broadcasting. I hope they help us all to find a home and a safe place to sell.

Items in the reviews will be listed on those sites so you can watch them in action.

Keep making noise.

Thank you all for your support, encouragement and strength.

Hello,My name is Patrick Quinlan, and I am the SquareTradeMediator assigned to try to help you resolve the problemconcerning an ebay auction between you.Thank you both for agreeing to use mediation.1. Mediation is a way to resolve problems by mutual agreement between the parties.2. I do not act as a judge or decide the outcome of your case, like in arbitration. Any outcome is wholly determined by the both of you.3. As a mediator, I do not find fault with anyone, place blame, or make a decision based on your "proof."4. I do not give legal advice, represent or assist either party in further actions.5. ** I do not tolerate profanity, verbal abuse or other vulgar actions or comments on this forum.6. If we reach a point where an agreement cannot be reached,I have two options.* At your request, the first option is to suggest a possible solution. I will only make such a suggestion after I have permission from both parties. Whether or not to accept this suggestion will be up to you. You should also know that if you ask me to recommend a resolution, my recommendation will be based upon the information that I have received from you. I do not act as an expert evaluator in any case.** The other option is to close the case at impasse. You would then be at the same point you are prior to mediating.If this happens, you will be forwarded to safeharbor@ebay to determine IF other options are available to you. Remember that this forum is voluntary, and it needs the participation by both parties in order to work towards resolution.***FEEDBACK REMOVAL INFORMATION***: eBay will no longer be "removing" the feedback comments - the new "member profile" (which is the old "feedback profile") will delete the negative from the user's "scorecard" at the top of the profile page, but the comment itself is going to remain in the user's profile with a notation added that the comment was withdrawn.I will be asking you for information to help me understand the situation and to explore possibilities for settlement. In order to help you resolve this as quickly as possible, I ask that you respond to my messages within 48 hours.You can address information to me in three ways:1: reply to my e-mails2: send information to: evidence@squaretrade.com with your case number.3: fax me information to Square Trade at , noting your case number. Please allow 24 hours for the fax to reach me.Please note that you will not receive each other’s messages. . Please keep your comments brief. For the most part, I will be sending the same information to both of you, so my efforts will be clear and transparent. I will not share anything that you ask me to keep confidential. I often share information between you, but will not if you ask me to keep all or any part of the message you wish to be kept confidential.At this point I have read all the information that you both have submitted, and I would appreciate it if you each could tell me the following:1. What are your interests in resolving this matter collaboratively, and not by proving you are right to an arbitrator or judge? 2. What might you need to know from the other party, prior to recommending a collaborative offer to settle? What concerns and interests appear to be unclear?3. Please state any offers that you feel would meet your concerns and the other party's concerns. Let me know if I can help clarify any information that would help you resolve this matter collaboratively. Thank you for your cooperation, and I look forward to working with you both.Patrick QuinlanMediator

I would be very happy to send him the other half of MOG mold if he will first return the other half of the female mold that I sent to him previously. HI MOTHER stated that she wanted them sent with the second shippment and since the buyer never paid for the 19 auctions in the second shipping, they are still here waiting for him to return the one he received.Thank you for keeping on this. I will forward the documentation to you ASAP as I have found the information and contact to send it back to you at.

MediatorWed, Apr 23, 2008 9:31 PM (PT)
Hi.Thank you both for agreeing to use mediation to try and resolve your disagreement. My name is JP. I am the Mediator assigned to help you resolve the problem concerning an ebay transaction. Some transaction specific questions / my understanding of issues to be resolved are listed below. When responding to messages please make sure to hit the REVIEW MESSAGE button and then the SEND button on the next review screen. Otherwise your messages are not sent or seen. * Mediation is a way to resolve problems by agreement* As a mediator, I do not find fault with anyone or place any blame* I do not give legal advice or represent either party* I am not a judge* I do not decide the outcome of your case - any outcome is wholly determined by you* If we reach a point where an agreement cannot be reached, I have two options. 1) suggest a possible solution. I will make such a suggestion with permission / willingness of both parties. Whether or not to accept this suggestion will be up to you. 2) close the case. You would then be at the same point you are now. I'll be asking you for info to help me understand the situation and to explore possibilties for settlement. In order to help you resolve this as quickly as possible, I ask that you respond to any questions within 48 hours. If I do not hear from either party in such a timeframe you will receive a reminder. Failure to respond to two reminder messages will ultimately mean the case will be closed based on your non-response.In the process of trying to achieve a settlement I ask you both to cease corresponding directly with one another. All correspondence should come through me. I have found that in cases where parties are unwilling to abide by this requirement a resolution through mediation is much more difficult to achieve. REMEMBER: Your communications to me are confidential and not seen by the other party. Thus, I will generally be sharing info between you, but I will not share anything that you ask me to keep confidential. Any recommendation I make will be based upon the info received from you both. I've read all the info you both have submitted, and would appreciate it if you each could respond specifically to questions below:CASE SUMMARY: Case #: 67872663Merchandise: Beta 3-D Candle Making Plaster Casting Mold Setup KITValue: $19.97- Buyer indicates merchandise was not as described - transaction never fully completed- if applicable please confirm the refund amount in question.- withdrawl of feedback (and accompanying comments) is an outstanding issue. PLEASE NOTE: Feedback and comments CANNOT be changed or eliminated. If withdrawl of feedback is the only outstanding issue, a resolution agreement can be posted and automatically acted on upon the acceptance of both parties.Is that an adequate summary of the issues to be addressed in the mediation?Are there other issues which I need to address which would prevent a speedy and positive resolution?What resolutions would be acceptable to you?REMEMBER: mediation CANNOT force either party to complete some action - it can only try to find a solution which both parties can agree to. With that in mind please provide possible outcomes you would be willing to accept in this case. If you send me info re: this case which cannot be included in your response to this e-mail (such as attachments or hard copy documents), you can either email it to evidence@squaretrade.com or fax it to . Either way, please be sure to reference the case number and my name (JP) in either the subject line or on the fax cover page. It will be forwarded to me. With the details and willingness of both parties I'll generate an agreement for review and (hopefully) acceptance. That is optional of course, but if no other issues are outstanding this can be the quickest method to a resolution and prevent any further action on this case.THANKS in advance for your cooperation and willingness to work to achieve a positive solution. I look forward to working with you both.

When responding to messages please make sure to hit the REVIEW MESSAGE button and then the SEND button on the next review screen. Otherwise your messages are not sent or seen. * Mediation is a way to resolve problems by agreement* As a mediator, I do not find fault with anyone or place any blame* I do not give legal advice or represent either party* I am not a judge* I do not decide the outcome of your case - any outcome is wholly determined by you* If we reach a point where an agreement cannot be reached, I have two options. 1) suggest a possible solution. I will make such a suggestion with permission / willingness of both parties. Whether or not to accept this suggestion will be up to you. 2) close the case. You would then be at the same point you are now. I'll be asking you for info to help me understand the situation and to explore possibilties for settlement. In order to help you resolve this as quickly as possible, I ask that you respond to any questions within 48 hours. If I do not hear from either party in such a timeframe you will receive a reminder. Failure to respond to two reminder messages will ultimately mean the case will be closed based on your non-response.In the process of trying to achieve a settlement I ask you both to cease corresponding directly with one another. All correspondence should come through me. I have found that in cases where parties are unwilling to abide by this requirement a resolution through mediation is much more difficult to achieve. REMEMBER: Your communications to me are confidential and not seen by the other party. Thus, I will generally be sharing info between you, but I will not share anything that you ask me to keep confidential. Any recommendation I make will be based upon the info received from you both. I've read all the info you both have submitted, and would appreciate it if you each could respond specifically to questions below:CASE SUMMARY: Case #: 67872663Merchandise: Beta 3-D Candle Making Plaster Casting Mold Setup KITValue: $19.97- Buyer indicates merchandise was not as described - transaction never fully completed- if applicable please confirm the refund amount in question.- withdrawl of feedback (and accompanying comments) is an outstanding issue. PLEASE NOTE: Feedback and comments CANNOT be changed or eliminated. If withdrawl of feedback is the only outstanding issue, a resolution agreement can be posted and automatically acted on upon the acceptance of both parties.Is that an adequate summary of the issues to be addressed in the mediation?Are there other issues which I need to address which would prevent a speedy and positive resolution?What resolutions would be acceptable to you?REMEMBER: mediation CANNOT force either party to complete some action - it can only try to find a solution which both parties can agree to. With that in mind please provide possible outcomes you would be willing to accept in this case. If you send me info re: this case which cannot be included in your response to this e-mail (such as attachments or hard copy documents), you can either email it to evidence@squaretrade.com or fax it to . Either way, please be sure to reference the case number and my name (JP) in either the subject line or on the fax cover page. It will be forwarded to me. With the details and willingness of both parties I'll generate an agreement for review and (hopefully) acceptance. That is optional of course, but if no other issues are outstanding this can be the quickest method to a resolution and prevent any further action on this case.THANKS in advance for your cooperation and willingness to work to achieve a positive solution. I look forward to working with you both.

Hello Paula,I would really like to discuss this issue in person or on the phone. At this point if I don't see resolve, I will send this to the Oregon District Attorneys office. I have been selling on Ebay for over 8 years and this busyer NEVER PAID for 19 auctions. HELLO!!! I want all his feedback removed from my account and I want compensated for the cost of all my auctions, and I want this buyer removed for stealing my photos and posting them on his auctions. THIS IS OUTRAGIOUS. No wonder people are Boycotting on May 1. If this matter isn't resolved you can count me in on this strike. This is totally unfair and illegal, in the state of Oregon.

Ms. Raymond and Mr. Stevens - I have heard that messages continue to be sent to the other party directly. Communicating directly with one another may be counter-productive, especially when one of the parties feels harassed by the other, and I would ask that while the mediation is ongoing, that you both refrain from doing so.Paula McCarronST Mediator

Ms. Raymond - I have already received all the email you sent. I do need you to tell me what ideas you have to resolve the problems that you think you BOTH could agree to?Paula McCarronST Mediator

Thank you for the Shout back. I am collecting the information but I do need an email address to forward all of this to. This guy even used one of my photos in the auction that he didn't pay for. What is going on here? I don't understand why ebay can't even read what is going on with your own system. I have saved all the messages in my customer relations file in my messages.Gathering all of this is so much work, again, a headach caused by the buyer who never paid for his items.Please give me contact information to send this information to.

Thank you for your responce in this matter. I have forwarded the many insulting emails I received from this person and feel the slander and name calling in his feedback is totally uncalled for.Please advise me when you receive the email sent to you moments ago and I am sure you will see how rude and unprofessional all this has been.My confidence in Ebay's resolve is in question at this point, that this person is allowed to do any business as a Seller. I have always held high standards on my business and the affects this has had on my DSR is rediculous as I did everything and more to get this resolved.Please advise,Cynthia Raymondshowcasemerchandise.

Ms. Raymond - It sounds like this has been a difficult transaction, and you both have quite a few complaints about the other. The feedback the buyer left you can not be withdrawn unless the buyer agrees to do that. The feedback you left the buyer can not be withdrawn unless you agree to do that. Given the level of apparent animosity here, I must admit I'm skeptical you two can reach an agreement and if you don't, no one's feedback would be withdrawn.In order to try and accomplish an agreement, however, I need to know what ideas you have to resolve the problems that you think you BOTH could agree to?Paula McCarronST Mediator

There are no other issues to resolve. This buyer wants my pictures database for his future catalog publication and I will not give them to him. I removed the pictures from my site after months of waiting for payment and then after receiving "MANY EXCUSES", See email history. I believed and trusted that his payment would arrive, several times, I even removed the Non Pay Action against him to preserve his MOTHERS account. Well now I am left without a means to regain the money lost for the auctions but the time and effort to retake photos to relist this auction. I own him nothing, right? He purchased the items in the auction, not my photography.I still feel that this person is a detriment to Ebay as a buyer and as a seller, as you could see his spamming efforts on his auctions that were all removed.I have all correspondence from this person and you will see how unreasonable he has been through all this. Negative feedback is for sellers who do not perform, well I feel I went above and beyond to resolve this issue and yet he argues and never paid. My only fault was trusting in his word and holding the items for over 2 months for him to pay.If he wants to resolve this then I should be compensated for all the problems he has caused me in my doing business.As far as any further legal issues, I would like to hear it. Does he want to put me in jail for selling and trying to collect money on Ebay? To remove his feedback would cover up the fraudulent practices of this buyer and it would be a shame to have him around any longer.
