My experience with ordering through Amazon is so far amazing. Based on this amazing experience, I thought that my experience with agency like eBay and IpowerResale will be similar. I have been proved terribly wrong. We bought an iPhone from EBay and the seller name was IpowerResaleon 1st of November 2023. When we bought, it was clearly mentioned that we have to pay 46$ shipping fee. Nothing was mentioned about customs fee. If they could mention it, we could stop the purchase then and there. 21 days later on November 21 we received a notice from our local Totonto post office that we have a parcel and we have to pay 317$ customs fee otherwise they can not deliver it. We immediately called eBay customer service though accessing eBay customer service is a Herculean job. It is meant for helping customer but in reality it is the most terrible barrier to get any assistance. Looks like some heartless machines are sitting there. Anyway, we were lucky and got a hold of a customer service agent. When we explained our situation, the customer service agent advised us to refuse to accept the item and that way the item will be returned to the sender and we will get the refund under eBay money back guarantee. Accordingly we refused to accept the item. Then our horrible nightmare started. We again called and spoke with two different agent of customer service. One was a Supervisor. Both of the customer service staff reassured us that they will resolve the issue and we will get our money back. One day later we received an email from eBay customer service stating that our matter has been resolved and we will not get any refund. We do not know how it is resolved when we have no clue at all what is going on? Following that incident, we have been trying up until now to talk to any customer service agent but we were not allowed to talk to any one. Each time an automated response stats, “the matter has been resolved and we are unable to provide refund.’ We were asked to contact seller. We contacted seller and the seller said that they have nothing to do and eBay has to settle this issue. Today is 7th of January, 2024. We have not received any refund nor the item we paid for a month and half ago. Both ebay and the seller IpowerResale are indifferent to our repeated request to resolve this issue. We are shocked and speechless the way the EBay and IpowerResale are dealing with our purchase. It looks like we made the greatest blunder in our life by purchasing from eBay and IpowerResale. We do not know if we will ever get our item or the refund from eBay or IpowerResale. The only option left for us is a lawsuit against EBay and IpowerResale.
We are also disgusted by the behaviour of IPowerResale. They are getting their product back but are not answering any messages.
According to Asendia USA tracking number, the item has been returned to the sender on 26th December 2023. Is there anyone in the management of EBay or IpowerResale who can put aside their greed to recognize the frustration and unfairness that we have been subjected to for the last two months? Can you have any semblance of a conscience to resolve this crisis for an ordinary customer who is still waiting to get either the item or the refund though paid in full a month and half ago?
