| Does this warrant a paypal dispute? I won an ebay auction for a Graco baby jumper...like a johnny jump up. I was getting it for my granddaughter. The description said, "Good used condition." I got it today and it is filthy! I have never seen anything as filthy. Wouldn't good used condition mean that it is usable as is? I only paid $8.50 for it and $12 shipping, so it's not a huge amount, but I am so totally disgusted! I messaged the seller and told them it was filthy and I want my money back, and that if they want the thing back, they can pay the postage. I also told them if they don't want to do that, I'll file a paypal dispute. I've never done that before...is it a lot of headache or what...and would they agree that being filthy isn't a part of "good used condition?" I took some pictures...have a look...

| I have never used Pay pal or Ebay for that matter, so I have no idea if it would be a hard process to file a dispute , but yeah , I agree with you that "Good used condition" is not an accurate description ...eeewwww

| Did you check the Seller's rating before you bid? Does she offer a return policy? I've only bought a couple of used items on Ebay and made sure the Seller had a 100% rating. I also made sure the item was described as "excellent". "Good" to me is only average condition. When something is sold as used, I think it might be hard to dispute the condition. I suspect leaving negative feedback would be your only recourse. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | "Good used condition" would not be the description I would have used. Were there pictures of the item in the listing, especially of the soiled areas? I would think an item should be clean to be represented as something in "good condition". Has the seller responded? If not, I would file the dispute.

| There was a picture, but it did not show the filth. Even on some I took, I couldn't see what I see here. They have not responded to me and I think tomorrow I'll go ahead and file a dispute. Can't hurt to give it a try. In the meantime, the filthy thing is out in the garage and will sit there until I see what this dispute does. I could try to take the thing apart...which looks like a lot of time...and wash the seat part in the washer, but all the hardware is dirty too and I don't know how I'd clean that. It just isn't worth the effort!

| Ebay has a dispute resolution center. I'd start there. |

YT 500 Club Member | It really does look horrible. You can try dispute. I received good results from it. After contacting the seller numerous times without an answer I filed a dispute and you have to wait till the person either says something refund etc. If they do not answer you will receive your money back and the seller will be penalized. The seller I used refunded me the shipping which was more than the carrier. I guess she didn't want to lose her account but she ended up losing it anyway after doing others how she did me. The item I had brought was new. I have not brought anything used on their yet.

| I am an ebay master (kinda just kidding) I think you might want to keep it. Disputes are a pain in the rear and you will have to send it back if the seller even accepts returns. I would definitely let them know that you aren't very happy with the purchase and work with them to where you both are happy. Im sure the seller would rather work with you than to get a dispute or negative feedback. |

| I don't know anything about Ebay and disputing, but I just had to comment on that! That is disgusting and even if they weren't using it for who knows how long, why would someone want something dirty like that sitting around? Atleast clean it! Sometimes it amazes me how dirty people can be. I hope somethings able to be worked out for you!

I get alot on Ebay 3 cars, 1 cammper, and a boat,(that is just the big stuff) Please give them a negative feedback,but you may still try to work with the seller, did they get back to you? If not try to get your money back from paypal. I can't belive they even sold something that bad. It should have gone in the trash. Good luck.

| I've gone through a paypal disbute before. It was actually easy for me. I would message ebay first and let them know about the product. Go to your paypal and file a dispute. Paypal acts as a go between for you and the seller. But def message ebay so that they become aware of the type of things that the seller is selling. When you do a dispute through paypal it is a series of emails and such but paypal and ebay both will take you through it step by step. I had won an item and paid for it and then waited for weeks to get it and never did so I emailed ebay and paypal and after I did that I received the box within a week.
