Welcome to Mike's Space on ebay

I am an Engineer, who has worked Within The British Armed Forces, The Police Service, and so have worked in a fair number of area's within this exciting field. I love helping people, an prefer likewise intelligence from both sexes across the board. I have no dislikes, other than to hate unfairness, cyber crooks, who think they can get away with daylight robbery. I will pursue anyone who even attempts to defraud me, regardless, of the outcome. I play fair, and will treat others accordingly.

It cost nothing to be honest and polite, you might be pleasantly surprised at the many good guys and gals who actually exist on ebay.  The bad apples always can be found read the feedback everytime. before placing bids.

Sellers should treat buyers with a lot more respect. Some Sellers on ebay seem go out of their way just to be ackward. You've Seen Them!  Take my advice, they will sting you, they all have the same pattern

Mr nice guy right up until you give them your money. Once exchange takes place, expect to be treated like a fool, they will swear, rant and raver, name calling is what they do best. Remember!  Stay clear of sellers with bad feedback, especially those who hide everything. What are they hiding? Ask yourself. Make sure you know where they live, and contact details are clear.

If Not Stay Clear! You have been warned!

Bloodsuckers Operate on ebay! ebay seems to attract the best louse-bags in the business. Never pay cash, or direct from your bank direct, unless you checked the seller out first. 

The bad guys will rob you blind! Just go to Watchdog on The BBC. Only download from an official website. Email the seller before you attempt to bid, always ask questions. Honest sellers will encourage your questions as long as they are not down right stupid.

Want to meet likewise minded people, follow the rules, play the game. If it looks dodgy, then all the more likely to result in you losing the money you paid out. PayPal is not foolproof!

PayPal operate chargebacks system. So always keep copies of invoices, and related paperwork. If it happens to you contact me

I'll let you know how to win your case against PayPal.

 10's of thousands of inocent people all over the world have lost their money to crooks usine using ebay, as a shop front. Paying with PayPal, is not bullet proof, and never without risk.

Never give Paypal or ebay your cheque account details, they can claw back money they have lost, direct from your bank account. Remember you are charged high fees to use PayPal as a seller, but also if someone pays you money as a refund via PayPal.

Personally I recommend Nochex go to the following website, look for the secure icons on the website. https://www.nochex.com 

Sellers who refuse to consider Nochex, should be ashamed, Remember you are the customer, demand to use Nochex, if the seller still refuses, don't purchase from them.

It has come to my attention that an increasing amount of sellers are conducting business on ebay in an illegal manner.

No seller on ebay, is allowed by law to add 3.4%, or 5% of the sale price including postage,plus the usual .20p, or .30p fee PayPal charge to the purchaser. If they insist, report them to ebay, and refuse to purchase the sellers goods. It is greed.

If you are bidding against a sniper programme, leave the site. dont press bid again. that's what the seller hopes for, the fool who is you.

Take control back from those sellers who are robbing you, and don't attempt to hide it. If you recieve goods simply wrapped up in supermarket wrappngs, don't purchase again from these bad sellers. T

They only care about how much, and how soon they can get their grubby little hands on your cash.

Often you will see the same items you've just bought on ebay for less than half in your local high street trader

However there are some wonderful and lovely sellers and buyers on ebay. Just look at the ones I highly recommend. They are all there in my feedback. I don't accept nonsense., and I play fair.

Just be careful, that's all. The moment you suspect fraud report it to your local police office, and log it with Trading Standards at your local council.

Remember ebay is only a great big collection of webservers. It's not a bricks and mortar shop, there is no real staff. 

Watch the postage rates sellers list.  Even more so, avoid the ones who refuse to declare postal charges. your only expected to pay the actual postal, and reasonable handling fee's.

 Try to get these delivery charges agreed before you bid. You have rights as a consumer, under the sale of goods act. Use the act to prevent crooks who just love ebay. Easy pickings.

Dont you be next! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
