Zero feedback Zero Sale. I also look very carefully at the feedback of low feedback buyers. Crooks open an account and then another. Buy things from themselves and leave positive feedback. If you study the pattern you can spot them. I am a constant victim of Buyers that do the switch a roo. They request a return. I reply that once the item is returned and I verify my secret mark I will refund their money. Only about 5% of them actually send me the item. For items that can be opened, Laptops hard drives etc I fill a screw hole with black wax. If i get it back and the wax is compromised No Return. I also photo the wax before and after and send the pics to eBay when I deny the return. Has worked so far. I still get burned on occasion but It has reduced my losses. My gains far out weigh the losses so to me, it is a cost of doing business. I sell lots of computer components RAM CPU Parts etc.. I have had more than one bulk buyer that will buy 50 plus pieces then claim 1-5 are bad (Not possible they are tested) These guys get blocked for trying to up their profit by as little as $25 Amazing how some will go through the trouble for $25? Block em. My list is long

Here is my list. Less than 10 are because they caused trouble. All the rest are from others lists. (someone would warn about a buyer or seller and I would add them.)

I hope none of you guys are up there.

Hi sorry for the thread necromancy, but do you recall why you blocked all the “largedistant2xxx” accounts? I just got a sale from them and the message they sent sounds fishy. Are they a freight forwarding company? Thanks!
