I am DONE with eBay!! Egg sellers BEWARE!!

[sandspoultry]

Rare Feathers, can you please send me a private message so I can block them on Ebay? We sell alot on there as well and having one less problem buyer is always a big help. Our blocked buyer list gets longer every year. I am suprised that they sided with the buyer though, we had 2 people this year that claimed "item not as descibed" and I was very careful to point out in my reply that the buyer bought x amount of eggs and that was exactly what we sent plus extras, also I called ebay and talked to them directly about the case. Maybe that helped? We won both cases but still got neg feedback from the buyer, that is one of my big issues with ebay. You can win a case and they can still give you a neg. I have also noted over the years that the crazy buyers come out later in the year, we stop selling eggs late May or early June. When it gets in the 90's here it's to hot to ship eggs with much hope of them hatching.

I would also appreciate the info

I'm sorry they treated you the way that they did
i have bought a lot of eggs from ebay.. never filed a claim for broken eggs since I know how rough the post office can be on eggs

even when a seller sent me old rotten eggs I didn't file a claim.. figured it was an honest mistake and wrote it off

I refuse to even look at ebay. Quit a long long time ago.

Now I know its not right... but me personally? I would buy eggs from her, claim the eggs(if the box is not crushed) were all sterile or Broken and file a complaint with E-bay. "Do unto others as you would have them do to you."

 

[Rare Feathers Farm]

Hee, hee...its occured to me. However, she's already got some negative feedback regarding her eggs....

Maybe 6 or 8 people buy from her.

And from 6 or 8 different states. She would have a hard time claiming conspiracy. That would put her in a good fix.

Soooooo...what's she got up for sale? LOL

I'm sorry you've been put through this.

I get horrible shipments. Only a few of times has it been the sellers fault. I"ve gotten some really badly wrapped eggs. Most time though, they are wrappped perfectly, arrive quickly. However, I take a chance any time I order. I've gotten boxes delivered with no outside damage, but I'm pretty sure USPS has employees playing catch with them. I also get way too many that are crushed. Some the deliver in a plastic bag and dripping. I've usually got such horrible aircells that nothing hatches or I get one or two. I figure those are good odds at this point.

I bought a large amount of quail once and they were so filthy and jammed into cartons that were deteriorating, covered in saw dust. I think it was like 110 and I got 2 chicks out of them. The eggs smelled bad! I let the seller know how damaged they were (1/2 were broken).

Another time I got a shipment and it was short by a lot, wrapped loose and most broken. Got hold of the seller and it took a few days. He said he had rushed before talking his wife to the hospital to have a new baby. I gotta give the guy the benefit of the doubt there. It might have been a line, but he did send the missing eggs and some extras. He was nice in his emails too. I'm just glad he got to me the day he did. I was just about to make a claim. I'd rather have the eggs replaced.

Both of those were eBay orders. The second guy, I wasn't too upset with after he got hold of me.

I'm pretty easy. I've never filed negative feedback but once. Not eggs. I won a lot of gems and after not getting them even 2 weeks later I sent an email asking when they had shipped. Nothing. Checked their feedback and although it was great before, there was a lot of hot customers that hadn't gotten their orders. I just knew they were pulling something, so I contacted eBay to see if they could locate the seller and when they sent their email, the seller closed their account. That was way before buyer protection was offered.

When you buy hatching eggs that are shipped, you've already taken a big chance. I get carried away sometimes. I buy non stop and then I don't buy for a while. Then it gets me again. I also ship eggs. I've had an eBay account for years, but every time I think I might start selling, they do something totally off the wall or raise their rates. Just not worth it if you don't sell something with enough profit to bother. I've had about 4 buyers recieve broken eggs. One or two per order. I sent almost 3 dozen to Alaska. Some hatched and some didn't, but only a couple broke.

This woman is something else though. I've worked with every seller, so I can give good feedback. She was out to get you for some reason. BTW, I've bought from you, either on her or eBay. I have no idea what I ordered or if they hatched, but like I said I get aircells that look like lava lamps, or no aircell at all at times. I do know you pack well, as do most of the sellers I buy from, but the PO sucks.


I say just put your pretty little eggs right here. Heck with her being able to mess with you again.
