PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT regarding: yuuuup11

[penzfan]

This Seller appears to be a Volume Consignment Seller who probably does not have the knowledge, the expertise or time to determine if there is something wrong with an electronic item and probably does not really care.

It's certainly apparent he/she doesn't care...

I have watched this thread and see a lot of slamming of e-bay, yet I sell on e-bay with 100% positive feedback on 2475 sales. I sure will admit that there are people with many thousands of sales that burn a lot of people, but because of so many sales, they maintain a 95% or better feedback. So the answer is, don't buy from anyone with less than 100% feedback (unless you see the bad feedback was unwarranted, which does some times happen from new customers on e-bay). I have bought and sold stuff on this and other detector sites also, and I have seen and had bad deals here as well. I went back and forth on one item which I never received and never got more than 1/2 my money back. Nothing I could do about the rest I was owed. At least on e-bay I could have filed a claim and got all my money back fairly easily. No guarantees here for sure. Don't bet on USPS or UPS to refund for losses as they can be almost impossible, and will drag on for months with no end, (even though I will give the USPO just a few points above UPS on this). Forget it if it is misrepresented junk, they will do nothing. It is all a gamble.

I was just on ebay and looked thru all used mds. I seen a couple of nice ones, I would most certainly buy!
I also seen one from yuuup and it was scary, I was very afraid! Thanks for the headsup!

That is totally wrong, you have the ebay return policy to get a refund on misrepresented junk and it works, you just have to wait a bit after you file a claim.

There are scammers on both sides of the fence on ebay. But having said that it is a buyer's market, not so much a seller's market. I've purchased around 130 items off ebay from a variety of sellers, only a few were less then anticipated. However, most of my better buys (targeted buys, actually) have been from sellers who had no idea what they had, mostly chance purchases on items that were poorly listed or listed wrong.
