Stupid eBay!
I bought some shoes off of eBay. I got a notice today saying I have to pay the post office $9.31 in postage.
So I sent a photo of it to the seller, and requested a $9.31 refund to cover it.
First, the seller tells me that I need to argue with the post office about it because he knows he calculated it right. I send a response, with the pic again, stating that the notice clearly says $9.31, and that I already paid him a postage fee when I paid for the item. He says he'll split the difference and give me $4 and some change, because he doesn't want to give me the shoes for $10. Of course, I'm not okay with that. Then he suggests to send the shoes back to him and he'll give me a refund once he gets them. Again, not okay with that. Why should I pay the shipping cost to get him back the shoes, and I damn sure don't trust him at this point, so who's to say I'll get the refund once he has them?
So I call eBay support. I tell them everything. They tell me to message him one more time, asking for the partial refund again and telling him that I contacted them. The reply I get from the seller is, "I'll wait for eBay to message me."
As if that wasn't frustrating enough, when I call back eBay to tell them how it went, the first guy never put ANYTHING on my account that I ever called! So now I'm looking like I was full of shit.
