Standard mail shipments on EBAY | Submission

I’ve just had another disappointment about what it means to sell on Ebay these days.A buyer who had already bought stamps from me before bought another lot from me, I charged him ordinary mail like last time, he opened a claim saying he hadn’t received it, and here comes the usual thing: Ebay only gives you the option of providing a tracking number, what tracking number if the buyer has only paid for ordinary shipping.In the end Ebay sides with this buyer and makes the refund.If this is the way to protect the seller, what Ebay should do is remove the option of sending by ordinary mail in its listing system, and make it always certified, but of course, that doesn’t suit them because they would lose a lot of sales of all kinds, especially lower-value ones.They prefer to leave sellers defenseless against scammers, because now how am I supposed to know whether this person actually received the shipment? I can doubt it, just as it is doubted that I sent it.The answer is very simple: on Ebay the scammer always wins, the seller is always doomed, it’s as pathetic as that, which is why every day I feel more disgusted about posting listings on Ebay, which right now is a paradise for scammers.And remember the abuse of the fees, which include shipping costs and count them as the total sale amount, another way of making more money of course at the seller’s expense, that THING that matters very little to them and that they do not protect at all.This is Ebay, as pathetic as that and getting worse every day.........
