Haha, that's true. We use a really lot of packing materials, since we're afraid our post may destroy the items. There's much of videos where you can see what our post workers do to the parcels sometimes
The reason why the packages are wrapped so tightly is because Russian post is not secure whatsoever, it's common knowledge to make the contents of the package so difficult to extract that the person doing it would go "Fuck this, I'm not gonna bother.", because otherwise they will bother and between the package's origin and destination the contents will be replaced with rocks, bricks, packs of candy, you name it, anything to simulate the original weight. Not to mention how sloppily the packages are handled, ordering something that can be damaged by being bent is just asking to have it destroyed by the time it reaches you.
Yeah, I've received some packages from Russia packaged so well that I could play football with them, with the relatively fragile contents still inside. They have it down to a science lol
I can feel this pain on a personal level. Back in 2020 I had ordered a $400 (Canadian dollars mind you) custom mini figure for DnD.

I understand why people use it, but I've never bought anything from ebay and probably never will. I'm not a collector though, so I don't really know what alternatives are out there for stuff like this.
Tbh, it's not just Ebay that does this. Got a printer repair, sent from us a respected company to a respected company. Hardly the first time we've ever sent a package and won't be the last(hopefully). Absolutely no reason this should've been done. I open the box, pull out the RMA/Repair order paperwork, and just get sad. "Printer arrived broken into by TSA", the thing legitimately looked like it was pulled open using a crowbar.
The only problem is that as a seller it can often be worse, literally anyone can abuse the refund system and they won’t even have to send whatever it is back
@@MechaGriffin no they keep the money until a month after it’s received (because that’s the time limit for returns) and they just take it and force you to pay shipping.
I started getting annoyed at ebay for mostly scams. But thats not ebays fault... 2 weeks later I see someone on ebay gets scammed by ebay. Not a good reputation.
I have a real good one, so I bought a nice Can opener, because I wanted a new one that was automated, so I got this sweet Black Cuisinart, and it shipped, nothing wrong, not a single thing wrong. But then, a few days later I get a message saying it came from a Warhouse with Covid 19, and I was getting a refund, AFTER I opened it and put it on my KITCHEN counter. I already had COVID at this point but still think about that, man wow!
The term "sealed" needs to be legally regulated. Basically, if Customs is going to unseal it, it should be legally required to say something like: "In certain countries, Customs may unseal this item."
In Sri Lanka if the customs want to unseal an object they send you a form stating that you product is on hold at the customs. If you want it to be open in front of you, you can go to the customs with form. Or you can pay the customs fee at the local post office. I thought this was hassle. But after this video, I think what they do is ok.
I felt that end bit about supporting local business. I used to get my meds from a Walgreens, and they were SEVERELY understaffed. Like I think they genuinely only had one full time pharmacy tech. The cars for the pharmacy drive thru would literately go around the entire store. But I ended up finding a local small like five stores big chain of pharmacy literately in a neighboring shopping center. Go in, they remembered me and my name by the second visit, have even refilled prescriptions on very short notice. Amazing people! Like this is exactly what I tell people. Even if the place isn't amazingly perfect, local businesses that at least try to give you a good experience are important. If we lose them, we end up bitches of a giant corporate machine that'll come up with new ways to screw us over with no way being able to do anything about it.
I’m only buying within the US when shopping on eBay but seeing this makes me want to delete my eBay account all together. They don’t even have bad standards they just don’t have standards at all...
Honestly, US buyers are in quite the lucky situation when it comes to buying on Ebay since most everything they could want is already in the US either listed on Ebay or some other website. I'm in Europe and already have a headache and a half trying to find a lot of things on the continent. I daren't imagine how hard things are for AU buyers
@@daggern15 can confirm, eBay is my go to for everything and almost never have a problem. Tho I always check the from us button so I don't have to deal with customs and international shipping
Honestly I agree as a seller, I'm having trouble with bills so I can't pay things that they're charging me for selling, and they continuously, everyday or to send me a collections email that's like "don't worry take your time, don't worry take your time, don't worry take your time...but give us our money" I'LL PAY YOU WHEN I HAVE THE DISPOSABLE INCOME TO DO SO! CHRIST ebay is bad. but sadly as a seller that's where it gets the most views and as a buyer sometimes that's the only place people put things up for sale, and I would know because I literally check every site that I have access to

This is why I always pay with a card, because then you can demand a chargeback from your bank (card issuer), and they're legally required to comply. I got scammed on eBay last year (for 200 USD). eBay deleted the seller's account (including the listing) because it was suspicious. And because the listing was gone, I couldn't complain to eBay. I sent a message to my bank requesting a chargeback, explaining what happened (with screenshots, seller name, card number, date, transaction id, etc), and after a month I had my money back. I didn't have to fill out any paperwork, didn't have to talk to anybody. One message, and that was it. Crisis averted. No questions asked. This procedure always applies, when you don't receive a product, or product/service is different from advertised. You get money back from your card issuer, and then it's their problem.
Tbh Wish is only bad because of the bootleg crap they sell. (And the shipping) Ebay on the other hand... oh boy. Ebay GSP just tears stuff open to look for illegal shit. I ordered a HIGHLY collectable Sonic 2 Tiger LCD game and they literally BROKE IT IN HALF.
I'm so glad SOMEONE mentions how HORRIBLE eBAy's Global Shipping program is. I've only had one experience as a seller, but now i try to avoid it. Been following recent, dude and already love ur vids. Can't wait to see more! I'll leave my story here: My story starts in Dec 2017. There was a nintendo switch game that had a "collectors/special" edition here in the US. I bought one but my bro managed to get one elsewhere, so I had an extra item to stare, all new and sealed for months to come. A few months later I put the item on sale on eBay as buy it now /w offer.. and goes to the normal procedure I go with shipping and all. Late 2018, I manage to sell it for a good price for the buyer and a price I'm happy with. I used bubble warp and put it on a cardboard, even adding those big air cushions, to keep it safe. A week or less later, eBay emails me that my "recent purchase through the Global Shipping Program has shipped from the Global Shipping Center" so at that point everything seems to go well. 10 days later it's already out of the US, and the seller gets it eventually. I thought that would be then end of it, but NOPE! Imagine going throughout your day, enjoying with the bit of extra cash, just to get a concerning email from eBay about the seller requesting a return of the item AND a refund. I was FRUSTRATED and angered, and also sad to see how the box was COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND CUT (can't find the pic the dude sent me but it was a nightmare and looked like a kid had packaged it). I thankfully had proof that wasn't what I shipped, and also went to the ebay forum for help, which i found after some research. I replied to the buyer about it, and emailed eBay support. It took around 2 days from just one reply to get to a GSP specialist, and I thankfully kept the sell, with ebay issuing a full refund to the buyer. BUT BOY WAS THIS A WASTE OF TIME! If I didn't act fast enough it would had ended bad. I CAN'T IMAGINE how the buyer must had been, since the item I sold him has gone up in price since then. WHAT A WASTE OF TIME, EBAY GLOBAL SHIPPING SERVICE! (and yes, this was the Kentucky center)
Brandon Torres if they have more facilities instead of just that one which receives the entire bulk, they can go through each package more carefully with a lesser chance of these destruction and the workers there won’t be doing as poorly. I mean come on if you have to handle that amount of load every single day of your life, you are bound to go through everything quickly to get it done and over with. Which explains the reckless slashing open of the boxes. The workers don’t really care anymore.
It’s eBay as a whole, they’re despicable I’m going to leave this here: www.cnet.com/news/former-ebay-employees-charged-with-cyberstalking-couple-who-were-critical-of-company/
i can feel your pain. i admire your calmness throughout this whole situation. i would have written a mean letter with colorful language to address this
Thank you for the PSA. I won’t ever use their service as a seller. Seems like a great opportunity for a competitor to come into the space and promise quality control.
You think this is bad? I purchased a 350 dollar sony fh15r 1985 mini hifi audio system from Columbia (im in the USA) and Columbia customs opened the entire thing up and drilled into the transformer, the capacitors, and other electrical components trying to find drugs! They didnt even bother putting the screws back! 1 year later and I still think about this. I didn't even get my money back from ebay! (refused to get the money back from seller since it wasnt his fault). When I turned it on, it short circuited and died cause they drilled the transformer and literally everything remotely larger than a tiny capacitor. Not even the fuses could save it :(
I sold a pair of OEM headlights for my car on ebay, as i bought aftermarket ones. They sold for around $500 and Ebay took nearly a 30% cut of it. Are you kidding me Ebay? It cost me about as much as you took from me as it did to even SHIP them! I hardly made $80 on the damn things!

That's like a massive destruction of worth. the game itself sells here for about 5-15€, with box it goes up to about 30-40€, and that's not even in mint condition, just by having the packaging with it.
This is a tragic event. I work at Amazon US and whenever there’s even a 5mm hole in a package, we repackage and make sure it’s in its best condition. I just can’t believe EBAY hates their customers so much to go through like this.
Here's another for the montage: I bought 30ish pounds of LEGO off Ebay once. I received less than half the weight of the shipment. Box was cushed and ripped open, bags inside were slashed and leaking parts, and two of the four figures I bought it for were just outright gone. FedEx delivery guy literally told me to my face "Sorry if anything is missing, the shipping center here messed up." Seller was willing to give me a partial refund outside of Ebay, since they refused to.

Hopefully they now have Lego all over their floor.
Oh my, I’m an eBay seller who has used GSP and thankfully my customers haven’t had any issues. But I didn’t even know that these were issues to be had!! None of the other eBay sellers seem to be talking about the damage/missing items/etc, just that the buyers don’t like paying extra shipping. However, as sellers we’re encouraged to use GSP for tracking purposes...and so eBay can make their extra money, of course.
It's all in their terms & agreements we make with them as we purchase or sell something. eBay is famous for the bully they are. The government prioritizes national security and eBay would pull that card to win, since customs have the rights to do it anyway and get away with it.
I ordered a 3 pack of toothpaste from amazon. the box was beat to hell and the toothpaste was old with a consistency more like clay. I hate buying anything from anywhere other than a local brick & mortar because of crap like that.
Customer returns with MISSING parts and they issue full refund Send you a 'tough luck' message saying they will note if the buyer does it to other sellers. I got ripped off and eBay is accomplice.. plain and simple Class action lawsuits is all these cowards understand
I used to work for Hermes/EVRi in the UK and one of the biggest issues is that when parcels are loaded into trucks at the regional hubs for the main hub they are literally chucked into the trailer piled ontop of each other from back to front, no cages or crates to hold them. which includes eBay sellers shipping through parcel drop off points, its not always the service providers fault because a lot of sellers assume their package will be handled with care when thats not the case. its not like they dont care but the workers are under so much pressure to meet turnaround times that speed wins over care.
It’s really shitty that someone thought that even though it’s clearly marked on the box that they cut the Apple wrap (literally the most satisfying thing) off a CLASSIC iPod Jesus
I assume since it's Australia they probably have some laws against it. It's not like the U.S where we can post the most private of legal documents on Instagram
@@Yilmaister Terms of use are not a legal contract, they can only refuse to do business with you if you break it but they'd still have to prove damages to sue you.

I ordered some stuff from eBay recently and they all arrived in immaculate condition except for the one thing that came through the eBay Shipping center. It wasn't packaged very well but I can only assume eBay screwed up the package but it was Video CD copies of my favourite movies and they're very rare. They come in jewel cases and the cases were trashed. Luckily I had some old CDs I could transplant pieces from and a tube of super glue and they look fine now, but it was a real piss off.
This reminds me of when I paid a dude 20$ extra to pack my graphics card with bubble wrap and some newspaper. Got a box with a still rolled up roll of bubble wrap, yesterdays neatly folded newspaper and the card rattling around the box along with it. ...I guess he did as I said lol.
I don't know how it is with your banks, but if I ever receive a damaged good and the company refuses the refund I call my bank and they basically force the refund for me. might piss off eBay but tbh they deserve it with this kind of stuff.

I sold something on eBay once, instead of a basic cardboard box, I built one out of plywood and screws. The buyer was so thrilled at how secure the package was. Oh yeah, and the lumber + screws was the same price as buying a cardboard box
As a collector myself, this is why I always get pissed with my coworkers when they carelessly dig their knives in and slice all the way across. I slice a small nick at the edge and simply use the force of the lid opening to tear through the rest of the tape. No damage to the products, and no extra time or strength utilized versus completely unsealed lids.
Usually what I do is puncture in at one end from the top, and then lever it so I'm cutting it sideways so I don't cut anything inside since my blade is in line with the flaps of the box

I as a seller take pictures of my orders, how I shipped them, packaging and all. now I know it's not really going to matter because what ebay says is something akin to 'we're not sure if those pictures are authentic or taken before the item was tampered/damaged/missing'
@@mbirth that's funny. Ive actually considered trying to set something up like that, trying to figure out a way to 'authenticate' a shipment but ultimately ebay/paypal all say the same thing in the end 'we don't know when and where it happened' so you're at fault no matter what.
@@deadkid2012 I mean, if you can document the packaging process and have witnesses that swear everything was fine when you gave it to the post office, it becomes a matter between post office and ebay. The big problem with that is, that by that point you'll have amassed billions of $$$ in lawyer costs. And that's why ebay can get away with this behaviour.

I have a real good one, so I bought a nice Can opener, because I wanted a new one that was automated, so I got this sweet Black Cuisinart, and it shipped, nothing wrong, not a single thing wrong.
But then, a few days later I get a message saying it came from a Warhouse with Covid 19, and I was getting a refund, AFTER I opened it and put it on my KITCHEN counter.
I already had COVID at this point but still think about that, man wow!

The term "sealed" needs to be legally regulated. Basically, if Customs is going to unseal it, it should be legally required to say something like: "In certain countries, Customs may unseal this item."
In Sri Lanka if the customs want to unseal an object they send you a form stating that you product is on hold at the customs. If you want it to be open in front of you, you can go to the customs with form. Or you can pay the customs fee at the local post office. I thought this was hassle. But after this video, I think what they do is ok.

I felt that end bit about supporting local business. I used to get my meds from a Walgreens, and they were SEVERELY understaffed. Like I think they genuinely only had one full time pharmacy tech. The cars for the pharmacy drive thru would literately go around the entire store. But I ended up finding a local small like five stores big chain of pharmacy literately in a neighboring shopping center. Go in, they remembered me and my name by the second visit, have even refilled prescriptions on very short notice. Amazing people!
Like this is exactly what I tell people. Even if the place isn't amazingly perfect, local businesses that at least try to give you a good experience are important. If we lose them, we end up bitches of a giant corporate machine that'll come up with new ways to screw us over with no way being able to do anything about it.

This is why I always pay with a card, because then you can demand a chargeback from your bank (card issuer), and they're legally required to comply. I got scammed on eBay last year (for 200 USD). eBay deleted the seller's account (including the listing) because it was suspicious. And because the listing was gone, I couldn't complain to eBay. I sent a message to my bank requesting a chargeback, explaining what happened (with screenshots, seller name, card number, date, transaction id, etc), and after a month I had my money back. I didn't have to fill out any paperwork, didn't have to talk to anybody. One message, and that was it. Crisis averted. No questions asked.
This procedure always applies, when you don't receive a product, or product/service is different from advertised. You get money back from your card issuer, and then it's their problem.
Same for debit cards if you're lucky with your bank from what I've heard
Mastercard saved my Christmas shopping this way. 👌🏻 Now it's the only method I use for valuable purchases.

Sealed iPod: * exists *
eBay: Allow us to introduce ourselves
I'm so glad SOMEONE mentions how HORRIBLE eBAy's Global Shipping program is. I've only had one experience as a seller, but now i try to avoid it. Been following recent, dude and already love ur vids. Can't wait to see more! I'll leave my story here:
My story starts in Dec 2017. There was a nintendo switch game that had a "collectors/special" edition here in the US. I bought one but my bro managed to get one elsewhere, so I had an extra item to stare, all new and sealed for months to come. A few months later I put the item on sale on eBay as buy it now /w offer.. and goes to the normal procedure I go with shipping and all.
Late 2018, I manage to sell it for a good price for the buyer and a price I'm happy with. I used bubble warp and put it on a cardboard, even adding those big air cushions, to keep it safe.
A week or less later, eBay emails me that my "recent purchase through the Global Shipping Program has shipped from the Global Shipping Center" so at that point everything seems to go well. 10 days later it's already out of the US, and the seller gets it eventually. I thought that would be then end of it, but NOPE!
Imagine going throughout your day, enjoying with the bit of extra cash, just to get a concerning email from eBay about the seller requesting a return of the item AND a refund. I was FRUSTRATED and angered, and also sad to see how the box was COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND CUT (can't find the pic the dude sent me but it was a nightmare and looked like a kid had packaged it).
I thankfully had proof that wasn't what I shipped, and also went to the ebay forum for help, which i found after some research. I replied to the buyer about it, and emailed eBay support. It took around 2 days from just one reply to get to a GSP specialist, and I thankfully kept the sell, with ebay issuing a full refund to the buyer. BUT BOY WAS THIS A WASTE OF TIME! If I didn't act fast enough it would had ended bad.
I CAN'T IMAGINE how the buyer must had been, since the item I sold him has gone up in price since then. WHAT A WASTE OF TIME, EBAY GLOBAL SHIPPING SERVICE! (and yes, this was the Kentucky center)
Crazy they still did this for years without even trying to fix this issue
They do that to make sure you didn’t ship drugs
Brandon Torres if they have more facilities instead of just that one which receives the entire bulk, they can go through each package more carefully with a lesser chance of these destruction and the workers there won’t be doing as poorly. I mean come on if you have to handle that amount of load every single day of your life, you are bound to go through everything quickly to get it done and over with. Which explains the reckless slashing open of the boxes. The workers don’t really care anymore.
It’s eBay as a whole, they’re despicable I’m going to leave this here: www.cnet.com/news/former-ebay-employees-charged-with-cyberstalking-couple-who-were-critical-of-company/
@@TatsByTaco but you can still ship drugs if you don't use the GSP, and it still goes through customs either way.

Ebay has plenty of competitors, sadly almost all of them are only at a country level
You think this is bad? I purchased a 350 dollar sony fh15r 1985 mini hifi audio system from Columbia (im in the USA) and Columbia customs opened the entire thing up and drilled into the transformer, the capacitors, and other electrical components trying to find drugs! They didnt even bother putting the screws back! 1 year later and I still think about this. I didn't even get my money back from ebay! (refused to get the money back from seller since it wasnt his fault). When I turned it on, it short circuited and died cause they drilled the transformer and literally everything remotely larger than a tiny capacitor. Not even the fuses could save it :(

I used to work for Hermes/EVRi in the UK and one of the biggest issues is that when parcels are loaded into trucks at the regional hubs for the main hub they are literally chucked into the trailer piled ontop of each other from back to front, no cages or crates to hold them. which includes eBay sellers shipping through parcel drop off points, its not always the service providers fault because a lot of sellers assume their package will be handled with care when thats not the case. its not like they dont care but the workers are under so much pressure to meet turnaround times that speed wins over care.

Somehow my brain translated "arsenic filled wallpaper" to "asbestos toilet paper" and I had to go back and listen again to see if you really said that. Now I'm trying to decide which would be worse.
For the wallpaper,
On one hand, poison
On the other is shit... probably the wallpaper
Asbestos is also toxic
When pieces are missing and the seller can confirm they were there when shipped, isn't that like, theft on ebay's part? Like yeah they stole an old crappy music player but that's still stealing as much as it'd be if it were a laptop or a basketball...
I as a seller take pictures of my orders, how I shipped them, packaging and all. now I know it's not really going to matter because what ebay says is something akin to 'we're not sure if those pictures are authentic or taken before the item was tampered/damaged/missing'
@@deadkid2012 I appreciate sellers like you so much even if ebay still puts blame on you.
@@deadkid2012 Get a Polaroid instant camera and do it in the post office and have the postman witness the process and sign the photo.
@@mbirth that's funny. Ive actually considered trying to set something up like that, trying to figure out a way to 'authenticate' a shipment but ultimately ebay/paypal all say the same thing in the end 'we don't know when and where it happened' so you're at fault no matter what.
@@deadkid2012 I mean, if you can document the packaging process and have witnesses that swear everything was fine when you gave it to the post office, it becomes a matter between post office and ebay. The big problem with that is, that by that point you'll have amassed billions of $$$ in lawyer costs. And that's why ebay can get away with this behaviour.
This is why my mom doesn’t sell internationally on ebay.
Your mom can't send stuff abroad without GSP?

@@bitterlemonboy totally possible that he could have 2 moms.
@@bitterlemonboy "moms" is a valid word when you take into account the different varieties of english dialects/vernaculars that exist. this comment is stupid, like who are you trying to impress?
@@johndprob wouldn't it be 'moms dont' then?

Alternate Title: *”Exposing Ebay for **18:41** minutes”*
"Exposing eBay GSP for 18:41 min"
eBay itself is great and I've bought tons of things and never used GSP, all my items arrive in top quality packaging. Better than amazon imo.
