Default Avoid buyer/seller "luckygriffin3" on eBay

I read another post where someone had a problem with this guy.

He purchased 4 various TY Hilton Topps Chrome Refs for nearly $300.00 before the Colts loss.

I mostly sell clothing and accessories & I use eBay's automated return process. TODAY I get return messages for ALL the cards stating;

Reason for return: No longer want item

Buyer comments: Sorry just made a bad decision on these hiltons

I already called eBay and they tell me its an abuse of the return process so we'll see.

There is a thread or 2 on him in the feedback section. Guy is a admitted shiller. Obviously no common decency at all.

wow, i didn't really know that ebay actually cared.
Good luck to you.

Still scratching my head on how you were able to sell the Hiltons for $300 for the first place, but none of my business, haha.

I think Hilton is going to be great. Him and Luck could "growup" together. I just checked the totals and it was actually about $230.00 for the 4 he purchased. The point is still the guy is no good.

As for eBay ,when you pay them $2,000 a month they care sometimes. But there has been an uptick in the "seller protection" department as of late. A buyer with too many disputes/returns gets a warning letter and they are limiting and suspending buyers. I know on Amazon too many returns and they block you.

Good to know, thanks for explaining. I only spend about $100-200/month in fees so maybe I don't qualify! hah

It just seems like whichever side i'm on in the ebay dispute, the unethical guy looking to make a quick buck always seems to win!

No problem. And yea, I was happy considered I had offered more but no, they are amazing. If you get any other low numbered Pierre's, hmu on here and we can try to make a deal over here

As a rule I can't accept offers on auctions, sorry. And I honestly thought it would go higher. When, I pulled it I was like "thats nice".

Oops I honestly didn't know that! I've always had people end them early for me haha. Thanks for letting me know! That's even against the rules if it has 0 bids?

He won quite a bit recently, including a load of Hilton. Wonder if he is trying to send it all back. I hope Hilton becomes a Hall of Famer now.

Nothing, when you posted the video I immediately thought something fishy was going on given the reputation of luckygriffin3 and that is why you posted it.

The break also seemed too good to be true.

I know that chris5784 is a good breaker & eBay seller from what I know.
