Hi!
I sold 4-5 items (e-tickets) to the same Ebayer and the scheme is always the same. This person is new on Ebay. Buyer bought item 1, paid and Paypal put a hold to verify transaction. After a day, Paypal released the money and said dispute closed, verification ok, got the money. Buyer bought item 2, paid, immediately opened a dispute for item not received, then closed it immediately. I'm under seller protection each time. I Got my money. Then this goes on for 3 more times. Can I be scammed and can it be fraud ?
Thanks

Hi pompom_girl
If this buyer opens disputes everytime they buy and pay why do u still sell to them?
They obviously want the item for free!!
Why dont u block them on your block bidders list and report them to ebay?

Hi,
thanks for your reply.
What I meant was this :
I sell a pair of tickets on Ebay; buyer paid, I got the money, buyer opened a dispute a minute after he paid, money is held by Paypal, buyer closed the dispute immediately, Paypal released the funds to me, I emailed the tickets. End of story.
He does this 4-5 times, each time for a different pair of tickets.
Am I still under seller guarantee ?
What would be the reason a buyer opened a dispute each time he pays ?
Thanks!

I know what u mean and like I said the buyer opens a dispute hoping ppal will refund him and he gets the tickets for free!!
Opening the disputes doesnt look good on your record altho u have done nothing wrong.
Sounds like a right idiot , could be a deliberate sabotage?
Why would u want to sell to someone who keeps doing this to u why not block them from bidding/buying?
If ppal say its ok to ship and u ship to the provided address they give u then u will have sellers protection

No you WILL NOT have seller protection.
You stated this >>>>>
, I emailed the ticket
There is NO SELLER PROTECTION for digital / virtual items.
If he does a chargeback then you will lose.
