because eBay always sided with the buyer
Haha, not me! Must be my luck!
I purchased a group of items off ebay, paid for it, and when I got the package, half the stuff was missing. I emailed the seller and he said "if you want more, pay more!" because the other half of the items weren't included.
I checked the listing... and he edited it
after the sale! The archived listing did not match the listing I was emailed when I bought the lot.
So I filed a complaint with ebay saying I didn't get the stuff I ordered, and included the screen shots of the original listing and the edit.
The seller's response to the complaint was to forward the tracking info on the half-empty package. Ebay took one look at that, said "You got the package", and denied my claim! Case closed.
So, yeah, they don't always side with the buyer!! haha
