ok so years ago I tried them on a transaction I got screwed on and paid them and in end still got screwed by the person but them on top of it all.

never used them since and seen no reason for ebay to even have them around.

was looking at a rc just now and had this option.

so now what I can go out and rag on a 5b and I am covered when I drive it full bore into a wall or is this just another attempt to steal people's money for another service with no use as long as you pay them it is at their descration do decide if the seller and them is going to screw you over again or not?

I just dont see how this goofy nonesens is suppose to work any different then their last nonesense except this time around they garuntee the product instead of the payment made?

maybe when that is said and done soon they can start charging to mediate feedback perhaps O yeah that's right they tried and failed that too already :p

They are a warranty company. They will warrant items for the price paid. I recently scored a samsung 55" tv for $325 from a walmart price mistake (normally $1100) and I looked I to a warranty but they cover price paid so keep that in mind. Otherwise they are pretty good for electronics.

years ago they were a company through ebay that would mediate transaction issue's with an item for a fee.

I paid that fee and still got ripped off along with them becuase I paid them thinking they would make it right and the seller just choose to ignore it so they both took my money and that is what I got in the end lol.

when that failed they then tried to do it with the feedback issue's instead so feedback could be corrected if all parties agree and once again for a fee with no garuntee.

now they are trying offer what I posted above, some kind of a warrenty replacement on things.

from what I can understand and was saying is I could go out and buy a baja 5b ram it in the wall and since I paid them that $9.00 they are going to repair or replace that for 3 years ??????

sounds great to me but do I believe them yet again?......nope been screwed before and now there back poking at another method to take other's money and then turn their back on.

I dont see how this could even work when most dont even accept returns and sold as is.

there is also new paypal rules coming in may so I hope there not going to ge together and screw everything up both on and off ebay.

really this is a company that should not even exsist in my eye's.

if you look at the site there is nothing saying they cover R/C , its only tv, cell phones, refrigerators,washer dryers , laptops ect... so im going out on a limb and saying R/C wouldnt be covered

I was just using rc as an example as to why this will be a failure also.

there no different then dropping the cell in the toliet or knocking the laptop off the table thing.

knowing how this company is, once again I see this attempt through ebay as a failure in the long run.

way too many scammers out there to insure something online that you have no part in but will be interesting to see how this works out for them and the poor people that paid them in the long run.

I seen the above they helped with a walmart tv purchase but them compared with ebay and paypal online is not even going to be the same case or people you would deal with through walmart more then likely.

I just dont see how this would be even somewhat profitable for them for it to even work becuase people would scam the heck out of them somehow.

it was new to me seeing it there and just thought I would post about becuase it still makes no sense to me how this is going to work out for them and I know how they work anyhow from past exp. with them so to me it's just another failed attampt at a gimme for free money.
