i was going to get on ebay awhile back, so i could sell a catalytic converter (car part) and after some useless time trying to figure it out on my own i talked to the people.... there's certain thigns you have to have before you can even sell shit (one of which is a checking account...)

before you get your hopes up of selling shit, make sure you can even get joined up so you can sell shit...

otherwise... i'm not sure how it works, but no they can't take their money back... however, if someone tries to buy something, and you don't have proof you sent the item or you never do, paypal will take the money back or w/e...

they do their best to protect buyer AND seller from being screwed over... but the seller is the first one to get the short end of the stick.. so make sure you always have proof of everything if a problem should arise.. also if you get into buying things from there... ALWAYS PRINT OUT AN EXACT COPY OF THEIR ADD... people are always going to and making false claims and shit... and if it comes to a legal standpoint, you need proof of what they offered..


just the other day, i saw something on judge judy, this bitch was trying to sell 2 cell phones on ebay, and after the buyer sent their 200-something dollars in, the seller sent two PICTURES of cell phones... eventually, judge judy went off on the seller and granted the settlement.... but it just goes to show you the lengths some people will go to rip you off..
