Did you get it back?
How did it happen?

I could say no, but I did buy a hoody off eBay and the description said it was a little worn - didn't see the men's label, but it's got some use out of it now. When it came there was fraying all over it, the zip was hard to get up because some of the teeth had come off of the two parts, there were holes in it from fraying, the text on it was worn off and looked like it was pretty much ready for the bin. Luckily, I told eBay and the buyer about it and requested a refund, the seller just told me to keep it and issued a full refund including postage so it wasn't too bad anymore.

I did, but I cried so much when I saw it missing.
I thought I was changing my iTunes account card details, because I couldn't buy an app, turns out the link I followed wasn't all legit. So, even though it had all the company registered numbers and stuff at the bottom, I was a fool. All my own fault. :(

I don't think I actually have been scammed. Not badly anyway.

Not really. One of my family members got scammed, though.

Bought World at War (PC) on eBay and never received it, but that's about as far as it goes but it is the reason I now tend to avoid eBay.

Can't think of an example, unless you count people behind bars 'forgetting' that I gave a £20 rather than a £10.
Yeah, It was my fault though.
Erm I bought something off ebay and it was never sent
Nothing else apart from that

Just the typical ebay stuff that never come, but I tend to get my money back!
