Angry Att!!! Ebay Users

I made a lot of money using ebay, but now all of that money is going to disappear with even more money coming from my bank account. I was using the Buy it now feature on ebay which they charge you a fraction of what you make for using that feature. Anyway people tried to scam me on ebay and when the clicked the buy it now button and didn't pay me, ebay was charging me $50.00 cause the laptop went for over $2,000.00 which I wouldn't have had a problem paying that then, but since I didn't get the money and kept on putting the laptop back on ebay that $50.00 sounds a lot better then what I have to pay. I tried to dispute things with the people who tried to scam me and get them to cough up $50.00 to pay for what they did, but that didn't work.


Don't make the same mistake I did.

Ya but its 50 bucks for a kid who is trying to sell items worth 3 times their value because he's poor. This is also why i dont use buy it now. At least if the top bidder backs out you can offer it to the 2nd highest bidder.

shhhh. I am not a scammer. I am just a good sales person who needs money.

What do you guys suppose I do to get that money back easily? I am skipping a wedding tomorrow cause I asked for more hours at work to pay off this ebay ****.

I already contacted ebay telling them that I won't pay that **** cause I don't got the dough. If I would've sold the laptop i wouldn't care about $50.00.

Also even knowing that I didn't sell the laptop $50.00 is a lot cheaper then what I have to pay. You guys said above its only $50.00, I know that isn't a lot, but what I have to pay is more then that. $200.00 just for an invoice on ebay from people trying to scam me.

You need to file a nonpaying bidder thing. When you do that the only fees you get stuck with are the listing fees. You really should read up on the terms of service before trying to list something for 2 grand.

I did do the disputes thing, but that didn't remove any fees. I also tried to get the stupid scammers to try and pay me the ebay fees. but they won't. I bet that paypal will suspend them for scamming me and doing all this **** to me. I told ebay and paypal that this won't end good if the fees don't go down to about $50.00 which they should be about $10.00. I don't care about paying $50.00. Its the $200.00 thing that I care a lot about.
