Ebay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales

A question about : Will ebay do anything to someone copying my pics and description?

Hi,
I just reported someone to ebay for blatantly copying two of my pics and my description from my 30 day BIN listing for use in their 3 day auction one.

Does anyone have any experience of this and does it get followed up that you know of? Don't know about imitation being the sincerest form of flattery in this case...he says that his fishing rucksack has a hole the size of a 5p on the front, whereas mine clearly doesn't...do you think it will affect my chance of a sale?

A question about : Best place to sell Nikon D300 for parts

My dad's old Nikon D300 SLR is sadly beyond economical repair. Good for parts only.

Where's the best place to sell this? I've looked on ebay and can't see a lot of for parts cameras there.

Thanks

Best answers:

• ebay!
  Lots of exposure (forgive the pun).
  Work out a price, list as BIN with offers.
• Thank you for the reassurance on ebay! I listed it on Friday morning and it was up to Ј34 by the evening!!

A question about : courts follow ebays example

Ebays dispute model so good it may be the basis for a replacement to Small Claims Courts:

A new report from the UK's Civil Justice Council explores the potential of ODR (online dispute resolution) for civil disputes of value less than 25,000 pounds. The report includes eBay as an example of a working online dispute resolution system.

A question about : Hermes pick up booked

As above- booked pick up for tomorrow and printer ink has run out so can't print the label. No way of getting replacement ink in time. What will happen to the booked pick up and will I be charged extra if they have to come back?
I have looked on the Hermes website but can't find anything about this.

A question about : ebay/paypal refund

Hi

Ive returned an ebay item back and requested a refund which has been refunded today. I logged onto paypal and can see the transaction in my history and the amount has a + sign to say amount refunded, however my balance is showing 0 so I cant withdraw money back into my bank account?

Does it take time before I can withdraw? and is there a charge? The amount refunded is Ј4.40

Thanks

A question about : To ebay shop or not?

Hi everyone,

A question about : The 'Have a Moan' thread

This thread is just a bit of fun, it is not meant to be taken seriously. If you have an issue with your ebay sales, or worry about keywords etc then start a new thread for proper responses. I suppose by its very nature it is business orientated as private sellers will have no steady sales due to not having stock- but feel free to join in anyway.
