So, I don't buy much off ebay and what transactions I have had I haven't had a problem with. Today I received my latest purchase. It's a way cute kid's table and chair set that I got for a great price. The listing states that it's new in the box and that the seller carefully inspected it and it's in perfect condition. But I started putting the chairs together and one of them has 2 left legs. I've contacted the seller (haven't heard from her yet) and I'm sure I'll get the issue resolved, I just had to air my disappointment. I hope there's some way she'll be able to locate a right leg for me and I get to keep my table and chair set. What should I expect in this type of situation?

You should expect the seller to either fully refund you or to give you the missing piece. Be polite but firm - that always tends to get the best results, in my eBay experience.

If she fully refunds me, am I expected to ship it back to her? Just want to check and see what the norm/requirement is, so I can be prepared.

At her cost, yes - not yours.

And so it begins... I give you: Aunt Ouida's Steamer Trunk. Well, it wasn't actually her steamer trunk, but a lot of boxes with tons of crap in them. Plus some stuff from my dad and some stuff I've acquired but would like to get rid of. I'm going to be adding about 10 items a day for the rest of the month (including lots of vintage postcards), so if this looks like your idea of a good time, please visit often and tell your friends. Thanks!

I visited your store, GNC. How hard is it to get one set up? I think I qualify now because I'm a 42 with a gold star.

It's extremely easy. (Mind you, I'm not sure I'm doing it the optimal way, or even the right way, but it's quite easy so far!) I'm going the basic route, which is $15.95/mo. (Which is fine, 'cause I'm not going to be doing this for very long.) Good luck!

At her cost, yes - not yours. I wish that had happened with my broken air purifier- he refunded the purchase and the original shipping, but not what I paid to ship it back to him. I have not left feedback yet, should I leave a negative?

So I just signed up for eBay this week so I could buy my boyfriend a birthday present (but I was outbid! Poo). Anyway, I've been browsing around and I found the gift certificate section. People are selling iTunes, and Barnes and Nobles gift certificates for practically nothing. Do you think that they are stolen, and won't work? Or am I being cynical? Should I only bid on the ones that have pictures of reciepts? Now that I've discovered the fun of eBay, I'll probably be in this thread a lot more!
