Worst times ever for eBay microscopes

I purchased an Olympus microscope and emailed the seller everyday asking if
he had shipped my microscope. He never answered my emails so after 10 days,
I filed a PayPal complaint. Almost right away the seller emailed me and said
he had the flu. The other people that purchased items the same day got their
items and left positive feedback. I know the seller is full of it so I'm not
going to answer his emails. He didn't answer mine.

I sometimes sell a few items on eBay and people have started asking to
remove a parts and sell the parts to them. They say that the buyer will
never notice the missing parts. They make statements like "I can be very
persistent".

I purchased 3 items and drove 100 miles to pick the items up. The seller
said he only had two of the three items because someone made him an offer he
couldn't refuse.

One of the eBay sellers favorite money makers is to sell an item with a
picture of an item that is not broken. They send the buyer a broken item.
Then they can file an insurance claim and make good money.

I used to like eBay.

eBay used to not be so bad. Why is eBay getting so corrupt?
