Have you ever bought a phone off Ebay?

Nope, mine were bad. You got off a little better, I didn't get my refund. Some times I think Paypal hates me, I never win even when I use them.

Oh no Sorry to hear that

That's why it's so important to check their feedback. Usually bad deals will follow the same seller. You don't usually wake up today and say, hey, I think I'll start selling bad phone.

Bad feedback is the key.

Bad feedback is a no no and so is low feedback but in my situation the guy had great feedback. I check all that before I buy from anyone. The only thing in my situation was that was the first phone he ever sold. Which is not a red flag. I have very good feedback on ebay and I have never sold a phone. But if I wanted to sell my used phone on there and people looked at my feedback they would see that I have never sold any phones either. But in my case they would get my phone and get it as advertised. With all that said bad feedback or very low is a good indicator something will go wrong. But the guy I got my phone from had very good feedback. I guess it was a good thing he did because he gave me no trouble refunding my money and the return shipping price to ship it back to him. I did not have to open a paypal dispute.
