can someone recommend another online auction site? I am fed up with ebay and their new policies. Just had a fraudulent buyer and they ruled in her favor!
I've heard of bonanzle, any experience with them and how are they different?
many thanks!

sure, buyer complained not as described although i explicitly described the bag as used and worn. I usually sell excellent condition or new handbags so I was sure to explain this was different from wht I usually sell.
buyer rec'd item and said not what she expected, i didnt describe correctly. She wantd to keep the bag and have issue her a partial return so she could fix what she thought needed repair. She complained of holes, they were not hold it was worn material. She didn't complain of stains or anything else. before i issued the partial refund (of $200) she changed her mind and requested a full refund. This was all taking so long back and forth that i agreed and figured I"d just get it back and re-list it. Well she returned it in horrible condition! it smelled of smoke, the shipping box smelled of smoke and there were new stains! there was no way I could re-list that bag in that condition! without getting my side of the story at all ebay issued her a full refund and is coming after me for it now $400 and no bag to sell. they offered me 200 to repair it so i could sell it and I told them I would bring it in to a Louis Vuitton boutique and they will give me a letter stating the bag cannot be repaired, with that letter ebay said I won't be liable.
so this is the mess I'm dealing with. Waiting for the letter now from LV. In meantime have other things to sell but do not trust ebay anymore. sellers are not protected at all.

I also had a very bad experience with e-bay with the very same situation,there are predator crooks out there just waiting to take advantage of a new user. My situation was not resolved in my favor but the scam artist was backed up by e-bay because this person was a constant user of e-bay and claimed to be a doctor from Arizona,in reality this person was working out of Ethiopia,a known country for this kind of crime by the FBI.
There are other auction sites such as Amozon.com Auction. Also I believe Yahoo has an auction site as well.
I hope this will help and I know how it feel to be scammed, every honest user of e-bay should voice there concern over this kind of on going criminal behavior on e-bay.
Sincerely 1635

yes and i wasnt even a newbie! I've been on ebay for years with great feedback; they didn't care they only protect buyer and... get this... sellers can't even leave any neg fb for buyers but buyers can even if they win the dispute!
I sell luxury handbags does amazon deal with that? I think yahoo stopped but i"ll try. I heard of banan something but others say its slow
