About Me  | Most Recent Posts If YOU have been ripped off by Record VillagePosted 08-Mar-08 13:36:08 GMT If you are one of the over 700 innocent ebayers who have been ripped off by this deeply dishonest and fraudulent activity, here is yet another way you can fight back. After you have purchased your cd or record, you may receive a reply from the hypocrites at Ebay asking you to review your item. This is a golden opportunity to tell other potential buyers who may chance upon the same album, say, to tell the truth. Just copy and paste the following message into your review: I would dearly love to tell everyone what I think of this album. Unfortunately I never got it. Perhaps if you ask Record Village they could tell you. Letter I sent to EbayPosted 02-Mar-08 11:33:01 GMT I have watched as over ONE HUNDRED negatives have rolled in on this seller in just a week. I have contacted some of the other irate customers and they agree that they can get nowhere with Ebay.
It is not enough to give us our money back. This person is making thousands of pounds by selling goods he has no intention of sending, or does not possess in the first place. He is making a mockery of Ebay rules with complete impunity. It would improve the matter HUGELY if you would take off the feedback percentage total, so that potential customers stop falling into the trap of not reading the ACTUAL feedback on the next page. Hundreds of people are doing this, as did I, thinking that 98 plus percent meant a good seller. But if we had read the real feedback page, we wouldn't have touched this seller with a bargepole.
I and many others will be reporting the matter to Watchdog, Trading Standards and anyone else we can think of until this vermin is deservedly banned from Ebay.

Reply to my knockers ! ! !Posted 01-Mar-08 17:49:56 GMT Updated 01-Mar-08 17:55:45 GMT Unbelievably, despite my benevolent attempts to warn other Ebayers about a disastrous seller, I am getting comments from people about my blogs that are completely missing the point. Bless. They don't understand. I am not making any money out of this, but I am still getting people saying that I should have checked the feedback before I bought, and, unbelievably, that I am selling something which I do not have ! Can you believe that ? The fact that over 500 people have posted a negative in recent times shows that buyers are looking at the good percentage of Record Village and not reading the feedback. It is a common mistake and I don't see why I or anyone else should be blamed for making it. My only motivation for doing this at all was to stop people getting ripped off by Record Village and the fact that I have had these negative comments just tells me that the sender needs to get a life. They are not concerned about the millions of people who could get ripped off, but that I have made mistakes as a relative learner on Ebay. What then if I was a newbie like a lot of these buyers are ? It seems to me that they need to concentrate their venom on someone who has intentionally done something wrong and not someone who's motives are good. Nuff said.
Over ONE HUNDRED negatives in one weekPosted 01-Mar-08 16:35:41 GMT This has got to be a record ! 140210714046 View my item above and then check out the feedback on Record Village. I started a tiny campaign only last Saturday to try and get Ebay to act and by today, Saturday 1st march, the negatives have gone up from 416 to 538, and rising. If you are thinking of buying a Cd or other type of album, you need to check this out quick. |
