I am from the eBay blogs and I am looking for a new home. The eBay blogs are retiring so a lot of us bloggers are on a major move out!

How do you like this neighborhood site? Any suggestions?

I am a relatively new e-bayer trying to learn the ropes. I have lost my job and have decided to sell off some gold jewelry. I decided to sell my 14K gold geneve Bismark Chain Watch which was barely worn. Please see Item #290310521966. I listed the item on 4/15/09. On 4/21/09 someone e-mailed re: earrings I sold that my weight in grams was incorrect. So I then realized my scale needed to be calibrated. Instead of ending my watch auction, I added a revision stating: The the weight was inaccurate, my scale wasn't calibrated correctly.
The high bidder watchguy31 won the auction for $308.00 on 4/26/09. I immediately sent him an e-mail to make sure he was aware of the discrepancy before I sent invoice.
His response was sure we'll work it out, scales are usually off. He sent me payment in full on 4/27/09 of $308. plus 6.95 shipping.
I then shipped the watch to him at Andersons Jewelers in Moor Park, CA in a new jewelry box, white interior. (As seen on listing) I PAID for the insurance! He did not.
He then sent me an e-mail stating he received the watch, wants to keep it, but he is only WILLING to pay $245.00.
I e-mailed him back stating that I purposely pointed out the discrepancy prior to transacting monies and that I could not accept $245.00 since I could offer it to the next bidder at $303.00.
Then he states he will send it back.
I replied that my Terms of Sale are no refunds unless merchandise Not As Described. I said I cannot accept the return and will not authorize a refund.
He then filed a dispute with PayPal.... They decided he needed to send the watch back to me and they would refund his money.
Then I get an irate e-mail from him that HE would have to pay to return the item and what a negative experience this has been and let him know what I want to do. He said "I am giving you the chance to reconsider my offer"
I e-mailed him stating that PayPal made the decision for him to return the watch and I would then in turn re-offer it to another bidder.
Now he goes on and leaves my feedback stating that the Item was not as described, missing parts & won't refund.
He called Pay Pal on 5/14/09 and told them that the insides of the Swiss Movement watch was from China, and that it was missing parts!
He had until the 16th to return the watch. He shipped it from CA to NJ on 5/14/09. I received the package on 5/16/09, delivery confirmation requested, no insurance.
To my shock, I received the watch back in an ugly black case. The crystal on the watch is badly elevated, one of the arms is missing and the back is scratched from opening the case. I AM SICK over this.
I contacted Pay Pal and filed an appeal, they told me I needed to get a Police Report and fax it to them. I filed a Police report which will be available for me to pick up on Monday, since it was the weekend. Pay Pal refunded him his money.
Today I get an e-mail from PayPal requesting an appraisal of the damage.
On Sunday I received a telephone call from a lady who identified herself as being from e-bay. She said that the buyer wanted to know if I would send him the watch back. I informed her that I have filed an appeal with PayPal and filed a Police Report with my local Police Dept.
This man basically embezzled money out of me, with no consequence to him whatsoever. Correct me if I'm wrong but does e-bay and PayPal condone vandalism. And what should I do next. This is beyond comprehension for me since I have lost my job and am trying to sell personal possessions to offset my bills.
Please Help!!!!!

Hey guys! I'm going away for a while and I'm gonna take my iPod with me. That bad thing is that it's only 4gig, but I have about 7gigs of stuff to put on it. It's an iPod Nano 3rd generation silver that's 4gig. I was hoping someone could trade me one, any iPod that can play videos and is 8gig. Hope someone will trade.

P.S. I'm willing to pay the difference, if any!
