Cigars on EBay

[jp1979]

eBay is a nightmare when it comes to disputes. One can dispute anything and 9/10 times the dispute favors the party whom initiated even when there is no evidence. He said, she said. It's asinine.

As a seller you need to be super clear and concise on your descriptions or very crafty so you won't lose any disputes. I haven't lost any as a seller, but have lost them as a buyer because of wording in the descriptions, what I perceived it to say vs what it actually said.

I don't think we will convince each other, but i will agree it would be a Hassel and there's better places to buy cigars.

I use ebay more than I should. It isn't for the novice or for the brash.

If there is one place you can get yourself in real trouble, it is eBay. Whether it be buying something you thought was something else, or getting caught up in a bidding war...eBay is the true blue wild west for consumers. Buy at your own risk.

With that being said, I would never bid on cigars on eBay. That is trouble IMO.

If you are going bid on cigars, play it safe and stick with the three major tobacco players most of us know. I have never had a problem with any of them. If I win a product that is not what I expected, they all have always honored my request for an exchange or credit.
