    If this buyer intended to pay by e-mailing credit card information outside of PayPal, that's a much different story as that is very clearly NOT an acceptable payment option. Maybe the question as to whether or not Dennis would ship this only to U.S. bidders was ambiguous, but IMO this one is *not* ambiguous.

    I would think in this case I would definitely neg the buyer since they insisted on paying with an option that was clearly not acceptable according to the terms. You could then seek mutual withdrawal if desired. And if trying to get satisfaction through eBay, even though I doubt they'd remove the neg I'd use the "unauthorized payment method" angle rather than the India angle. IMO it seems more bulletproof and not subject to interpretation of ambiguity.

    "Black Eyes, Blue Tears"

    Black eyes, I don't need 'em
    Blue tears, gimme freedom

    No more rollin' with the punches
    No more usin' or abusin'

    I'd rather die standing
    Than live on my knees
    Begging please-no more

    Black eyes-I don't need 'em
    Blue tears-gimme freedom
    Black eyes-all behind me
    Blue tears'll never find me now

    Definitley found my self esteem
    Finally-I'm forever free to dream
    No more cryin' in the corner
    No excuses-no more bruises

    I'd rather die standing
    Than live on my knees
    Begging please-no more

    Black eyes-I don't need 'em
    Blue tears-gimme freedom
    Black eyes-all behind me
    Blue tears'll never find me now

    I'd rather die standing
    Than live on my knees, begging please...

    Black eyes-I don't need 'em
    Blue tears-gimme freedom
    Black eyes-all behind me
    Blue tears'll never find me now

    But, the buyer only asked to do that after Dennis refused to ship to India for an auction that clearly stated "Bidders outside of the U.S. will pay actual shipping/insurance to their destination. "

    Below is a composite screen shot of the auction in question. I thought I was quite clear that this was a U.S. only auction. However, being that some bidders could be confused, especially for bidders who do not speak English as their first language, I am going to use separate templates for my U.S. and foreign auctions and be completely clear in my terms. I will, and have many times, open auctions up to outside the U.S. on certain lots. This was just not one of them.

    Oh, I understand now. You are right about that, but the top one is generated by eBay and the bottom is what I had in my template. Trust me that this will not happen again. I am changing the terms to be specific to each auction and very clear.

    Well, I received a strange email from the buyer from India today and decided to check the feedback again. To my surprise, the negative does shows everywhere except in the chart (see pic below). It seems like some sort of strange compromise by eBay. I don't understand how they can remove a neg, but not really remove it. Either it is gone or it isn't. Anyone every have the same issue? Here's the email that I received from Rajan (I have not yet replied):

    Dear One, Please send me a Photograph of Mr.Ollie Johansen and the one who refused to deliver my items,Neither he can retain the item nor Mr. Ollie Johansen was able to took it away with him. I will pay the postage for THE photographs in advance .I am an honest man.
    With all the best wishes !

    I am having trouble understanding the purpose of his message. Is he just lashing out, or does he really want a picture for some reason?

    His email is very odd, and does seem somewhat threatening. I think blueifalcon made a good suggestion - stop communicating with him. AND give him a neg!

    The negative showed up in the table yesterday, but it is gone today. BTW, I have not communicated with this guy since the negative, although I did forward his message to eBay. Since he offered me money outside of eBay, it is a violation of eBay terms (fee avoidance) and he will get naru'ed. I am kidding about him getting naru'ed, but I did forward the email to eBay.

    I still don't see what the big deal is. The seller's item said he'd ship overseas, the bidder saw that and bid, expecting to get the product if he won. He did win, and never got it. And the seller is even considering leaving the buyer a neg? hmmm.......

    Seems maybe something is getting confused in the translation at times too, but I feel the buyer did NOTHING wrong, and gave the seller a neg (as he deserved) because he didn't deliver as it was stated in his own words.

    Sure, the template and all comes into play, but the original high-bidder did absolutely nothing wrong in my mind, all the fault is with the seller, JMHO.

    This is a big thread with a lot of information, so perhaps you missed some information (understandable). Here is a summary:

    1) My auction said "Ships to U.S. only". He was in India and wanted the item shipped to India initially.

    2) I not only offered to ship to India, but also to his brother in the U.S.. However, his ONLY method of payment was to email me a credit card number (an Indian credit card). That is useless to me, and most sellers. What would YOU do with this type of payment information?? I told him PayPal, International money order, or a payment from a U.S. address, but I would only ship to a confirmed address.

    3) I even offered to find him similar items for half the cost of the auction AND ship to India (assuming he paid me in an acceptable manner).

    4) I have and still do ship all over the world. However, this was a consignment and my agreement with the consignor was to keep things simple (i.e. domestic). Some people here said that I should have taken on the risk myself, which I have in the past, but since I am making $17 on this auction, why would I take the risk for something that had ALL of the signs of a scam.

    Below is a copy of my eBay auction in question (as posted above). Note that the top part that is generated by the options I selected in eBay. It seems absurd that eBay would allow people outside of your specified shipping area to bid, but they certainly will. I learned from Russ and a few other members here that you must change your preferences to block bidders outside of your shipping area, which I have since done.

  • adamlaneusadamlaneus Posts: 6,969 ✭✭✭
    I see the auction, and I see that you state near the bottom that Visa/Mastercard/Anex/Discover is accepted. This would tend to indicate to a buyer that you do have a means of accepting a credit card number via e-mail...at least that is what the "Learn about payment methods" link says when you click on it. If you take credit cards only via paypal, then perhaps you should amend your payment details to avoid this confusion!

    That e-mail about asking for the decedent's (Ollie's) photograph and yours is a little creepy.
  • zeus135zeus135 Posts: 1,043
    I'm still hung up on this from your auction:

    Bidders outside of the U.S. will pay actual shipping/insurance to their destination.

    Imagine the confusion when someone who speaks another language as their main language reads that. That's the core of this whole thing in my mind. That statement should not be there. Just my opinion of course, I feel it all revolves around that.

    Edited for spelling, jeez.

    But why not quote the entire section that you are questioning? Here is exactly what was in the auction:

    1) at the top where the bid is entered: Ships to: United States

    2) at the bottom in my terms and conditions: Bidders outside of the U.S. will pay actual shipping/insurance to their destination. Please contact me through eBay if you would like a cost estimate for shipping to your country. Only some of our auctions ship outside of the U.S. (note the last part that you omitted from your quote)

    Regarding the issue of "confusion when someone who speaks another language as their main language reads that," well that is just absurd. So, if someone from Tibet bids on one of your auctions and wants to pay you by mailing you a box of yak pelts or a bag of gazelle teeth, you are going to feel sorry for him and accept the payment just because his English is poor?

    The seller simply made a mistake and needs to take responsibility of that mistake.

  • numismanumisma Posts: 3,877 ✭✭✭✭

    Sure that was there. But, how did the buyer know that this was one of the auctions that did not?

    Simply because where the bid is entered, it says "Ships to: United States." When I bid on auctions in Europe, I am cautious to read the specific areas where a seller ships. I have found sellers that stated that they only ship to their country, Great Britain for example. In that case, I ask the seller if they would be willing to ship to the U.S. Sometimes they do, sometimes they don't. However, I don't bid anyway and then leave a negative because "my heart is broken" or "tears are in my eyes," like Rajan from India did to me. And the worst part is that this is all over a bunch of First Day Covers!

    Actually, the worst part is that I WAS willing to ship to India or his brother's U.S. address anyway, but he was not willing to pay me with a credit card through PayPal. He wanted to email me the credit card info. My terms do say that I take credit cards, but that doesn't mean that I take any form of credit card (i.e. swiping, or numbers via email). My checkout allows for checks, money orders, and PayPal (credit cards or from an account balance.....even e-checks). I give so many options, but this guy wasn't willing to take any of them. I told him international money order, anything through PayPal (with confirmed address), but his next response was a negative. I don't really care about it, but I will never agree that I deserved this one. And, according to the email I received from my friendly email rep in India today, she agrees with me, but won't remove the negative. Imagine that. Get this: I was told to leave him a negative and then use the mutual retraction method to get it removed. eBay is bass-ackwards.

    Ken, that is simply not true. I promise that this is the last time that I post the following screen shot. However, PLEASE read what I circled in red and underlined in red. I have since changed my written terms for those who have trouble understanding plain English, but I will not agree with you that I "made a mistake" that warranted a negative feedback. I will state for the record that my mistake, if any, was not being 100% explicit so that there could be no confusion. Maybe I should have my auctions translated into 30 other languages to avoid future confusion and negatives. You know, kind of like when you call American Health Insurance and the first thing you here is instructions in Spanish, followed by English.

    Dennis, red lines "after the fact" doesn't mean that what was there wasn't confusing. Hell, you could do a poll of ebayers and probably 50% would agree with me and the others with you. The simple fact is that it was confusing.

  • numismanumisma Posts: 3,877 ✭✭✭✭

    I did agree that it was confusing, but does that justify a negative? Terms are terms. And, once again, this is more about him not being able to pay for the auction than his location. I agreed to ship to India for him, but he couldn't pay in an acceptable manner.

    UPDATE:

    received two new messages from Rajan today. Keep in mind that I have not communicated with him at all and I have not yet left feedback.

    If a potential buyer is not conversant in reading the language they should not be bidding. How many people here would be bidding on a Japanese auction written in Japanese and then blame the Japanese seller for not being specific enough? image

    Numisma, wear you neg proudly and don't be afraid to take more of them in stride when you have idiotic buyers or sellers. The fact that outright crooks have FB ratings of 99% or higher (with hundreds of FB's) indicates that there are opportunities to improve.
