I've had the completely opposite experience. I've used Ebay for over 10 years. Only once did I get ripped. It was a $5 item and I didn't bother to dispute it.

I've had occasion to use the resolution center and I got my money back. Other times all it took was an Email to the seller and it was made right.

I must be good at picking sellers. I've only gotten one jerk and that is when I was a Noob.
