Example of how people get scammed on Ebay

wrote: Did you scroll down? Yes. It appears to be a different camera. The seller is now chrita_1686. It was Redtagcamera(76504). next time it will be something else. did you notice the word 'similar' on the page? guess what that means. Similar does not mean identical. exactly. now you know why it was a different camera, and will be different yet again when you try in the future. this isn't complicated. it really isn't. |

I'm at a loss to understand Eric's confusion. I too don't use e-bay, and am thus unfamiliar with it's in's and out's ...yet tracked down the "info_in_question" in just a few clicks. ~~ IMHO nospam is right in saying: " this isn't complicated. it really isn't." ~~ E-bay wants people to buy stuff... thus if (whatever) is unavailable it will point you to something similar that IS available. ~~ [YMMV] |

I think its a question of timing. Every time I was directed to something I clicked on it and failed to find what I had been lead to expect. The only explanation is that e-bay was flushing the old before I got to it. I even posted URLs which showed what I had found and still I was told that I was missing something in the page, but I was never told what in a manner which lead to what I was lead to expect. If nospam had given me straight answer at the outset perhaps this boondoggle would never have occurred. ~~ E-bay wants people to buy stuff... thus if (whatever) is unavailable it will point you to something similar that IS available. ~~ [YMMV] -- Regards, Eric Stevens |
