Dont not buy from!!! Autoaccessory 4u on ebay

This was a power seller on ebay with 99% feedback until early February. I purchased a hidden hitch ($250.00) from them on 2-2-08. They advertise 5-10 days for arrival. I called at the 2 week mark and they assured I would receive a tracking # in 1 day. It has now been 2 more weeks with no contact. I sent repeated emails and now there phone is disconnected. Feedback in the last month has been horrible.

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!!

That happened to me before, although I got lucky and got my item before they disappeared. I bought a pair of golf shoes from an eBay seller who had 99% positive feedback, and something like 25,000 feedbacks, over many years.

At some point, they decided to just take the money and run, and went for a long time just taking people's money and not sending anything out! They had dozens and dozens of sales per day. From what I could tell, they took hundreds of thousands of dollars, and just disappeared.

Same here from a computer seller about 6 years ago. She got caught and is serving hard time in prison.

eBay is going to get a lot worse before it gets better. They have had a change in management and in policies and a lot of sellers are jumping ship. Where they are going, I don't know, but they are leaving. Unfortunately, I am not terribly surprised.

This seller had 74,000 + transactions. Wild.

I already cancelled my CC payment. No big deal. Another hitch on the way.
