Not quite the same but I bought an exhaust from a Toyota dealer on eBay with major feedback and it was an odd process.

Got tracking number from fed ex right away but never said picked up. 4 days of this and I call the eBay guy at the dealership and he's like 'oh yeah I saw that go out. Didn't ask my name or order number. And they have a huge number of listings. So a few days later it still hasn't updated and I call again. Guy won't answer the phone but staff says he's there. I tell receptionist and a salesman 'he needs to call me, not answering his phone or email' and finally he calls from the dealer.

Here's where it gets really weird; he says 'I have the new tracking numbers for your item'. Item? Wtf is that about. THEN he says 'let me call you back from my cell so I can walk to the warehouse, tracking numbers aren't coming up here'


I got the exhaust but I feel like there is some manner of fraud potential at even legit businesses on eBay. Might be the eBay guy and not the bsns itself. He could be telling the boss 'oh this got all screwed up we need to start over' or who knows what.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.
