Which should help to limit the "we-buy-our-feedback-in-fake-listings" crowd at least a little bit. It means the "seller" in their little scam is going to have to be willing to eat some higher fees. I suppose that crowd will still try to list three-day "auctions" for 1 cent, but then they have to wait to get their fake feedback ... and, in some cases, these idiots are looking for a quicker fix than that.

Dear Patrick, Thank you for writing eBay in regard to your concern about a seller who offers a refund that does not include the eBay and Pay Pal fees that the he/she was charged for. Patrick, we consider this type of activity to be a form of fee avoidance. Fee avoidance harms the trust and legitimacy associated with eBay's marketplace. We'll gladly investigate your report, but before we can take any action, we need to have a complete copy of the email which indicates that the member is avoiding fees. Please reply to this message, pasting the complete text of the email, along with its complete header (see below) into your response.

My question was bounce around to different departments and it finally ended up in eBay's Trust and Safety Department.Here is their reply:I sent a reply stating that an email wasn't involved and that it was just the policy that one of their Power Sellers has in all of his listing.I did name our friend to them.I'll let you all know what happens if I hear anything back from them.
