That shit is right up there with making a purchase from "location United States" and then getting an email from a Chinese person fanking you for good official product purchase but color maybe diffwant.

I had this happen recently, item location said US, shipped from China. I left a negative for it, fuck that. Another buyer did the same. If I'd wanted it from China I could have bought it from a seller who said they were in China for $7 less.

>>6599113
It was such a poor spinoff that they didn't even really acknowledge it was, there were some serious canon/continuity issues such as a different school, and did she ever once acknowledge ever having met B&BH? And wasn't Daria in the final B&BH episode for some reason as if she's never left?

It was fucking boring too. If it were made today it's be SJW shit.

Because eBay rewards that behavior by 1) allowing the Chinese to engage in it without consequences and B) rigging the search engine visibility so that such games are necessary.

Because Paypal coddles them with refunds. There's regular insurance and then there's I'll-drive-drunk-every-day-because-Daddy-will-make-it-go-away.

Just another front in the war on the American middle class. eBay's previous CEO was a Bain minion and the current CEO is his hand-picked successor. Their kind works everyday to undermine anything even resembling economic opportunity for Americans.

Did you know they were also behind the ePacket scam? Chinese get to ship here for free! OK, about a dollar, but still. I don't know what's worse, that domestic rates rise every year to subsidize that giveaway or that return shipping is so expensive that there's no consequence to sending broken junk because it costs more than just eating the loss.

Transformers dealer tguy pulls this shit and flat out stated he was glad to keep the extra money when I asked about it. I stopped buying from the fucker after that.

Gofiguretoys also did this, promised a refund on postage when I wanted more things, and come almost a month later and still no refund after asking 5 times. Another one lost my business.

Both are US-based too.

But, Anon, you have to pay the same shipping cost for each item because that single piece of newspaper in the box and that 3 minute drive to the post office costs tons of gas money. The seller has to get reimbursed for their inconvenience somehow.

In the very first episode they establish that Daria's family moved to a different school (different state?) and she mentions B&BH.

If she continued to show up in B&BH episodes after then that's a mistake on their part. I'm also pretty sure B&BH was over by the time Daria started

this is every day stuff for non american toy collectors, most of the times 15-20 shipping is what you need to pay, have you ever wondered why this is mainly an american thing? tat's why if you are not american you only can have a very small select figure collection unless you are literaly rich

Babies first auction, though. You almost always lose the auction on a rare/desirable item if you bid a low minimum five days out and don't come back to defend your winner status.

Pretty simple. Four basic outcomes when you buy something unrealistically cheap from chinks on eBay.

1 - it never shows up
2 - it's a rock or broken or otherwise unusable
3 - it's OK but it's a KO
4 - it's real and you got a great deal

In the first three cases, crying to eBay will get you a refund with no further action on your part. Option three is the jackpot if the KO is good because it's like the real toy except free because it was misrepresented. Obviously option four is what you were going for. So it's win-win-win-win.

You never have to be responsible for making a bad choice so you can keep rolling the dice as long as you like. It's a game of Russian Roulette with no bullets in the gun.

Makes it really difficult to sell as a legitimate dealer on eBay though. Because even though half those Chinese don't even have the item they're advertising, buyers still expect you to compete with their prices. If, however, an actual risk would affect those buyers, they would place additional value on purchasing from dealers in areas where fraud actually has consequences.

Because our shipping isn't subsidized (Chinese can ship 4 fucking pounds for less than $1 via ePacket) and we don't get to "go rogue" every other month taking thousands of dollars with us to another eBay shell account.

eBay should institute some variation of a 3 strikes program for buyers who keep falling into Chinese traps because muh cheepur.

That wouldn't always be fair, though. There's plenty of sellers who list their location in the states but who turn out to actually be selling on behalf of or situated in China.

No but it would be less fair to punish someone who selected "US only" and bought an item using buy-it-now, only to find out that the seller falsely claimed they were stateside.
