Finally, get paypal scammed at competitive prices! :)
Do you have any examples? I use PayPal (even on Chinese sites) for many years -- never have been scammed yet.

When has it ever been cheaper than the alternative?
Phone cases and batteries are usually selling much cheaper on ebay than Amazon Marketplace. A lot of them are obviously fakes, but even the real ones are a good 20-30% cheaper.
"A lot of them are obviously fakes"
Amazon is even worse, because sometimes there's no way to tell if items is original or fake and end up getting fake for same price as original. On eBay you can mostly safely assume it's fake, so at least you get what you pay for.

#34PRO TIP eBay: people don't use your site not because of prices but because you are a horrible company to deal with.
I don't agree. As a buyer I have never had a problem they did not settle to my satisfaction. I did make sure in each case to have my facts in order. I tend to buy mostly antiques, glass and china, and have had three bad purchases which were fraudulent in some manner. This out of nearly three hundred purchases.
I also purchase consumer items like batteries, dog toys, beef jerky, a DJI drone, and whatnot off the site.
Now as a seller I have no clue, but I have no clue what it is like to sell on Amazon either. I do find ebay easier to navigate by leaps and bounds over Amazon. amazon fills my pages with more trash than I ever want to see.

Does Ebay have the same problems with authenticity as Amazon? There are a lot of fake items being sold on Amazon.
It's a lot easier to see the quality of the seller on eBay. Items are not grouped like they are on Amazon.
And, just like Amazon, disputes are basically a guaranteed win for the customer.

#37What I don't get about eBay is they found initial success in being an auction site then they almost immediately decided they wanted to be an online retailer instead. Why not just be the best auction site you can be rather than be yet another Amazon wannabe?
Interestingly Amazon has done the same thing except they want to be Google (Android) and Netflix (content bundling with Prime).
I get the desire to grow but honestly more often than not trying to do too much just makes you mediocre at everything.

#39Walmart has been stopping price matching (except their own.com) this and last year across the country in its stores

#40The only reasons I even think about going through the ebay process is because either their price is significantly better than I can get on Amazon, or it is an unusual thing I can't get at Amazon (mostly used stuff). Most of that irritation comes from their desire to get me to use Paypal.
