Yep 95%+ have turned up (which is good) - if only eventually, I have just been very disappointed with what's inside when they have especially after asking specific and detailed questions about the items prior to bidding

If you get screwed and you've paid with paypal you can get your money back no problem, but you only have 60 days in which to make a claim. The seller then has 20 days to sort it out or paypal close the dispute, automatically, and give you your money back.
The system works, most of the time.

Yep, I have raised a paypal dispute, took ages to go through, but finally got my money back

Best thing is that as soon as you raise the dispute, that amount of funds gets 'locked' in the sellers account - so they have your money, but can't spend it, that'll feck them off and make them do summin about it!!

Well, I've looked into raising a dispute, but on the paypal website it says you must wait 45 days from the end of auction to raise it. Not long left now like. To be honest I'm not that bothered about the whole thing - its just £11 quid. Still, I'll be damned if hes getting ANY of my hard earned for nowt.

No, I think you read that wrong ... its more like you have 45 days left to raise it

NEVER let them get away with it ... its a matter of principle

+1 on that!

Ive brought loads of stuff on ebay. Had one bad experience. A bed for my nipper. It got delivered 2 weeks late, damaged and at 10pm at night!

So i left the guy negative feedback! (all is fair as he was late bed damaged and at 10pm at night)

NOW - condsidering i instant payment thi guy so he had my money straight after the auction i expected a positve.

NOPE _ the sod left me a negative and his comment " customer recived damaged bed that wasent our fault"

How the hell did he justify that! Ebay said resolve it oursleves!

I did by bidding and cancelling on his items!
