I am fond of browsing through hundreds of stuff up for auction at ebay philippines and I’ve put up a few of my unwanted but usable items myself. So far things have been good for me. My bidders paid for the items they’ve won although some needed to be reminded constantly of their invoices. That’s good enough for me than encountering a bogus bidder who will not even communicate with you at all. Although I don’t buy stuff as much in the .com version of ebay that it’s .ph version, my experience has been okay so far. My boyfriend bought off a few items he needed for his techie gadgets and they arrived on time. It’s only recently that I’ve been experiencing problems with my purchases.
Last December 14, I paid for a full housing for my W550i from a reputable seller based in UK, sadly, I have yet to see the notice from the post that I have an item ready for pick-up and it’s been more than a month already. This experience is really frustrating especially since I badly wanted that housing for my cellphone. I don’t know who to blame, the seller, the speedy postal service or myself for buying something for shipping right smack the flurry of shipments for the holidays. I can’t help but think that perhaps, if only I had been more patient and let the busy holiday season pass before I made my purchase, I wouldn’t be worried that I would not see my item at all. *sigh* Perhaps, I’ll just take this as a lesson.
My issue with the seller is still unresolved up to now. I am not really blaming the seller but perhaps, if I don’t receive anything within the next week, I’ll just ask for a refund and sulk in my little corner.
So will I continue bidding off ebay? I think so. There’s no other way I can find good deals like talking watches or affordable cosmetics other than in ebay.
