eBurned

Well, after buying on eBay for 13 years and probably 500+ purchases, I finally got burned.
God damned chinks setting up accounts and purchase 20-25 items for like $1 each, get positive feedback and then put up 100 items for sale with Buy it Now for half the price the legit sellers are selling it for. I've gone through the Resolution Center, but I doubt I will get my money back. Lesson learned. Glad it only cost me $50 instead of a lot more. Then again, if I were buying something for a lot more, I would have been a little more suspicious from the beginning. If it's too good to be true...
Let's hear your eBurned story if you have one.

Doesn't matter what I attempted to buy.
In any case, these chinks have 3 open auctions right now for the same item. I have them in my watch list. I reported them. I refresh the page every now and again and keep seeing the # of items left drop like flies. These fuckers are raking it in. 100 items at $50 a pop. They get $5000, fuck 100 people out of their money and eBay cancels their account. Meanwhile, they're opening up other ones and buying up cheap shit to build feedback for their next run at $5k.
I haven't bought much off eBay in the past few years. I see what it has come to. I'm done with the online auction shit. I've only ever bought something with the Buy It Now just because I don't care to deal with the bidding. From now on, I'm just going to stick with regular legit merchants and websites.

Yes, it does. It's called "context."

You should use a reputable butt plug and anal bead wholesaler next time

$5 says it was a well used "pog" that smelled of ass

The only time I was burned on ebay was on some stupid DVD set. I haven't really used it in years though. I'm sure the scams are at an all time high now.

Why would the scams be at an all-time high now?

Desparate times ? Crime in general might go up in times of economic trouble.

You could always try a U.S. seller for your
*cough* purchases.

Well god damned. eBay gave me a refund. Hope the slant-eyes are weeping over their rice-less bowl.

Nice one!
Brass dildos are a dime a dozen, Indy. Don't give up or let it get you down. Quality prosthetic devices will come along one of these days from a more reputable part of the globe.
