I recently had a situation on ebay that I was hoping someone might have some insight/advice on.
I recently sold a cable modem (Which I own, not rent), after making sure it was de-provisioned from my account. The buyer opened a refund claim at 11am today saying it didn't work, stating that they were not able to activate it on their account. I contacted Cox (the ISP) to double check. Turns out they needed to de-provision it AND remove it from my account (They didn't inform me this before, and said it was clear to sell/give to someone), which they promptly did so, making the modem clear to use elsewhere (Which I have noted, and the tech's name and ticket number to refer to).
The buyer still wants a refund, since he 'already bought a new modem' before he even filed the claim. I effectively had it handled and resolved within 6 hours of opening the claim. The modem is perfectly functional, and able to be used.
Should I just stick to my guns on this? Is there a way to have ebay review the situation? I've heard too many stories of ebay siding with wonky orders and returns.
