I got scammed on ebay

I should have known; because the price was too good to be true.
Printer ink price on other sites was $80+ ebay seller had it for $32.
That should have been a red flag for me.
I got bullshit in the mail, not ink.
And somehow the scammer got my account permanently suspended so I couldn't leave feedback.



I'm sad rather than mad because I should have known better.

I can't believe that in 2025, we're still seeing this kind of stuff happen. It's eBay, after all; they clearly tend to protect scammers.

Agreed.

It's crazy that someone who actually works online could fall for such a scam... All to save a few bucks

I have no idea.
My best guess is that it's an organized scheme with multiple accounts giving false positive feedback and reporting my account for violations.

I haven't used the site in years and was drinking.
The link came up in google and the seller reviews were positive.
Don't shop when drinking.

PS: I've been ripped off more on this site.

Very sorry to hear what happened to you and the ban.
At least it wasn't for hundreds of dollars if not thousands - so there is a bit of comfort but still it's the idea of getting scammed that annoys you.
