Got cheated on eBay

Until now I have never been cheated on eBay. I have bought many smurfs and a few Duel Masters cards from there. On Saturday I got an email from a member telling me how he got cheated when buying Duel Masters cards from a certain seller. He had noticed that I had bought from this same seller too and thought to let me know that my buyings might be fake.

I'm not an expert on DM cards, I just buy those for my God children so the member told me a few things to look on the cards and he was right. The cards were fake. Now I'm having a huge conversation with the seller of getting my money back. She has admitted that the cards are fake (in some words) and is willing to give me a refound. Now I'll just wait and see. I just hope she will really give me the money back. She had done it with the member who contacted me. The bad thing is that I have already given her positive feedback since I recieved the cards in time and they looked ok to me. The seller said something about 7 days complaining time but I will answer her that it doesn't apply if the add is wrong. Or am I right?

I hope you can get your money back Yonna....it's awful when people sell fradulent pieces trying to pass them off as authentic. Ebay and Paypal should do more but they are pretty useless it seems.

Good luck in getting your money back and let us know how it turns out.

Actually Paypal have increased the time to 45 days which is great as sometimes it takes that long to get it though we all know airmail posing as surface can take around 101 days!!!! :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I think it was very nice of another Ebayer to warn you about these and I will keep my fingers crossed that you can at least get your money back. :fingers:

Thanks everybody. :cry: I'm waiting for the money to arrive on my account. I'll let you know what happens. If I don't hear from the seller during this week, I might have to contact eBay security center. :-?
