Has anyone on here had to file a dispute for not receiving an item? If so, what was the outcome.

Is paying normally for goods (i.e. not Gift) worth it, or do they wriggle out of refunding the buyer?

Cheers
M

I'd say general consensus here is that the buyer always wins (even if they're taking the piss) unless there's masses of evidence against their case

(Ive never used it)

Yup - the system is biased heavily toward the buyer - it's usually up to the seller to provide documentation / proof of posting etc. It's why I no longer sell on ebay after nearly 800 transactions. Basically, the seller is most definitely guilty until proven innocent!

Mmmm, I'm the buyer in this case, from a pinkbike seller, who seemingly only registered to sell the item I've paid for.

I may be being paranoid but it's a private seller, young female, selling a fairly expensive set of forks. I've paid but the alarm bells are ringing.
