Default Ebay is Unfair!

Hi. My name is Kim and I was a powerseller on eBay. My account was canceled
for no apparent reason give, then an eBay representative wrote to me and
instructed me to fax certain documentation in then my account would be
reinstated. I did so but my account was not reinstated. Now I have no income
and it is due to eBay's unfair policies and business practices. They cancel
your account and don't even explain why --- meanwhile I have lost, no doubt
just like many others and owe Fed Ex fees, DHL fees which are due at the end
of the month--of which I could have paid had my bids and account not been
canceled. They, eBay gave no reason why but just exerted their "No ask..no
tell why your account is being suspended".

Also, when I click on the above link to see a "printable copy" of the
lawsuit, a blank screen comes up. I would like to see a copy of that
lawsuit.

I have also been contacted by at least 9 - 10 others who need an attorney
along with myself, to sue eBay for the unfair business practices. I was
referred to Suzanna Gal from the San Jose District Attorney's Office, but
only after sending all my relevant paperwork and evidence to her, did she
not even respond and has done absolutely nothing on the case. She is a
foreigner and I have trouble understanding her English. I have nothing
against foreigners but I simply cannot understand her...only that she did
nothing on my case as well as many others, and she closed the case not
explaining to me what she did at all on my case. She only said "I cannot
force eBay into mediation"??? I wanted to see her office take much needed
prosecution and swift, harsh legal action against eBay..What a total waste
of time her office was. I even wrote to her supervisor and he sent me a
dear-john letter....nothing was ever done on my case. These people from the
DA's office are just as lazy and illegal in their conduct as eBay is.

We---myself and at least 10 others need a great attorney in that area or
whomever in the correction jurisdication has the know-how and much needed
follow-thru to sue eBay.

They have hurt me and damaged me for the last time! I have outstanding bills
and monetary obligations and I was doing great on eBay.

The other matter regarding eBay's outrageous feedback & shill-bidding
policies need to be filed within this same lawsuit.

Someone contact me for serious legal action against eBay. We (all 10 of us)
need a diligent, ethical attorney who will give eBay what they need most---a
kick in their legally constipated ass!

The FedEx and DHL fees should be paid by the profits from the items you
already shipped.
I wish you well in your lawsuit though. I know of many who have been
unfairly ousted from eBay.

Life is often unfair. The thing called eBay is not a God-given right
bestowed upon people who have chosen to use it to make money for themselves.
People who have woven their financial existance around eBay should recall
what life was like for them BE. How did they manage to earn a living? If
you want to use eBay, you've gotta play by their rules and accept their
whims-- agree with them or not. If they kick you off for an unexplained
reason and you've got to find another way to sell your stuff, it's not much
different than getting booted out of the local country club where you made
all your business contacts. You should never have come to depend so much on
eBay to the extent you want to sue them if you feel they wronged you. But
go ahead, if that's what you feel you need to do. And good luck, unless you
manage to shut it down and spoil it for the rest of us who still enjoy it as
a fun and valuable tool for hobbyists and collectors.

Hi. My name is Kim and I was a powerseller on eBay.


What was your userid on eBay?

My account was canceled
for no apparent reason give,


What did their message say? *exactly*

then an eBay representative wrote to me and
instructed me to fax certain documentation in then my account would be
reinstated. I did so but my account was not reinstated.


What did they say? Why didn't they like your documents?

Now I have no income
and it is due to eBay's unfair policies and business practices.


Why do I suspect you are feeding us a line

They cancel
your account and don't even explain why ---


Actually they did explain.

meanwhile I have lost, no doubt
just like many others and owe Fed Ex fees, DHL fees which are due at the end
of the month


So? Those fees were for items you have already sold, so you *should*
have the money right?

--of which I could have paid had my bids and account not been
canceled. They, eBay gave no reason why but just exerted their "No ask..no
tell why your account is being suspended".


Oh, they told you... You didn't like the reason, but they told you.


Also, when I click on the above link to see a "printable copy" of the
lawsuit, a blank screen comes up. I would like to see a copy of that
lawsuit.


Lawsuit? What lawsuit? Where did this come from? Make sense, please?
What was the link? POST IT!


I have also been contacted by at least 9 - 10 others who need an attorney


Just out of the blue? They just poped up? Humm, very interesting!


along with myself, to sue eBay for the unfair business practices. I was
referred to Suzanna Gal from the San Jose District Attorney's Office, but
only after sending all my relevant paperwork and evidence to her, did she
not even respond and has done absolutely nothing on the case. She is a
foreigner and I have trouble understanding her English.


Let's see, you don't understand eBay's English. You don't understand
Ms. Gal's English...

I have nothing
against foreigners but I simply cannot understand her...only that she did
nothing on my case as well as many others, and she closed the case not
explaining to me what she did at all on my case. She only said "I cannot
force eBay into mediation"???


That is totally clear to me... She is saying that eBay didn't break
the law, so that her office can't do anything. The DA is only there to
enforce the law, not for civil matters.

I wanted to see her office take much needed
prosecution


Prosecution for what *criminal* matter? What law did eBay break?

and swift, harsh legal action against eBay..


Again...

What a total waste
of time her office was. I even wrote to her supervisor and he sent me a
dear-john letter....nothing was ever done on my case. These people from the
DA's office are just as lazy and illegal in their conduct as eBay is.


Not surprising, since you didn't understand Ms. Gal's answers...


We---myself and at least 10 others need a great attorney in that area or
whomever in the correction jurisdication has the know-how and much needed
follow-thru to sue eBay.


I'd guess you hurt yourself... Where is the message that eBay sent you
when they canceled the account? Post it, verbatim!

They have hurt me and damaged me for the last time! I have outstanding bills
and monetary obligations and I was doing great on eBay.


"[You] were doing great on eBay" leads me to think that probably you
were doing something that was outside the eBay TOS.


The other matter regarding eBay's outrageous feedback & shill-bidding
policies need to be filed within this same lawsuit.


Ah, so you were shill bidding... And got a bunch of negs too... Just
what was your eBay ID? I'd like to read some of that outrageous
feedback myself.


Someone contact me for serious legal action against eBay. We (all 10 of us)
need a diligent, ethical attorney who will give eBay what they need most---a
kick in their legally constipated ass!


Double oxymoron alert.

Egad, I just realized that I didn't trim my headers before, and neither has

Than you're perfectly free to not use eBay anymore or any other auction
venue that you don't like. eBay has treated most of us just fine over the
years. I'll continue to take advantage of what they offer as long as I'm
happy. I don't expect eBay to look out for my welfare. They're out to
make a dollar. Something you did caused them to do what they did.
Otherwise, they are usually most eager to keep customers. If you think you
can afford to sue them on whatever grounds you think might apply, good luck.
But I think you might be better off simply looking for another auction venue
if you need to sell your stuff that way.
