You gotta be a fool to buy a PS5 off ebay craigslist or hell even amazon right now. I’d rather stick it out getting it at a legit retailer than pay triple the price and have shyt like this happen. I heared the other day a nikka bought a PS5 off ebay and found deordarant in the box. I'd be pissed as hell if that happened to me :francis:

The thing that sucks about eBay is that this could of been reversed (seller sent a PS5, buyer lies and claims brick) and the seller would have still be out of luck. Glad i am not involved in selling on eBay or Amazon anymore.

ya I’m more inclined to believe the buyer is lying/trying to scam the seller cause there is ZERO incentive for a seller to try this on ebay in 2020...you don’t even sniff the funds until the buyer verifies receipt of the item

Does Ebay usually always side with the buyer?

I know this one dude sold me a fake pair of Pharrell NMDs a few years back and insisted that I swapped out the real ones.

From my experience you have to give them overwhelming evidence that what you are saying as the seller is true. I have had situations where returned laptops i sold with with invisible marker/ warranty stickers on the motherboard were missing/broken. Getting 1-2 generation iPad back from the one that was sold. Computer does not work but stripped the CPU, video card and RAM out of it. eBay sides with the buyer because how could i prove they are scamming? Only thing that could be done was block the seller and that is it.

Yeah, I have heard of fukkery where buyers tried to scam the seller by claiming an item is missing/fraud once they receive it. Always wondered what stance eBay would take in that situation.

I wouldn't do someone like that, but I'm sure it's the norm on that type of website.
