Apparently he is sending the broken cue to me with a tracking number that doesn't exsist so once it arrives- if it arrives, the offence of fraud will be complete from my understanding of criminal law so I'm going to get in there first with a pre-emptive allegation rather than go getting myself nicked. The photos he sent were of a cue he had previously tried to sell on ebay a long time ago. Broken with a terrible glue job done around the splices. I googled his name and all sorts comes up on him he is at it big time by the look of it. I'll see what the police say anyway.Originally Posted by jrc750 View PostComment

There's good honest sellers on eBay unfortunately you'll get the crooks in which eBay seem to side with 99.9% of the time.
Hopefully one day sellers will have the same rights as the buyers but can't see it happening TBF.Comment

Paypal ALWAYS go with the buyer - apparently the £15k a year I give them counts for nothing.Comment

I hope so mate because the way it stands people can take the p~#$. I agree too mate that there are good honest sellers on ebay. Over the years I found their quality honesty and integrity second to none, still do as well. Snooker culture is an honest culture, right down to admitting a foul that no one else saw and that same honesty can often be seen amongst us all when we buy and sell our cues. Pity though that it seems to have the snakes & vultures out there willing to exploit it.Originally Posted by Triedandtested View PostComment

It's unreal. Even with proof as well they still side with the buyer even when it is an obvious criminal offence, to them it's just a civil dispute and they accept no responsibility for that. Sellers should be given better protection. I have often wondered how much agg' you have had over the years mate, hate to think as it goes.Comment

Did anyone on here buy the Parris ultimate 581 that was up on ebay last night ?
I can't figure if I dodged a bullet, or missed a bargain.
Number 332325749106 but you need to go to advanced and tick the completed items box for it to show ( as it's ended ).Comment

Looked at that myself- Replacement Shaft, Pissed Badge... I think a bullet was definitely successfully dodged..... :-)Comment

I thought I'd seen it all of late on eBay but obviously not.

I'm amazed by some of the prices people want for second hand cues. In my mind, if a cue is second hand a 5% reduction from the original price just does not cut it, vintage cues may be an exception but if someone wants to sell me a modern Thai cue with a £20 discount from the new price, they can jog on!Comment
