Angad. Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Flipkart bought it (eBay India) over, f**ked it up proper & eventually shut it down.FK itself has really gone down with its quality and product coverage. Infact there are so many products that are cheaper on Amazon with delivery dates earlier than the ones promised by FK. It’s really sad to see though as I have fond memories on fk, but over the last 2-3 years it seems to have gone down hill Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Damn. eBay was best. I bought my Samsung 3D TV off it back in 2010 and Destiny Limited Edition PS4 in 2016. Good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLEAST Amazon takes action when you report them, Flipkart just be like - "Ha bhopdike hum dekhenge kya Karna he" About collection it's less because Flipkart seller policies where horrible, I closed my account with them within 3 months .

That on top of sellers giving their own discounts. My first computer build components were all bought from ebay, back when it was called baazee.com. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man the stuff you could get back then on baazee. eBay too. eBay was literally my AliExpress before AliExpress. Still remember getting the Palm Pixi Plus from eBay back in 08-09. What a damn good buy that was. Coolest phone ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyofx Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Joining the eBay love-in. I bought so much cool stuff from there back in the day. I really hope they give India another try down the line. They also had excellent buyer protection, right up there with 2007-2017 Amazon. No questions asked refunds provided you submitted evidence of product issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was our own little gateway to imported and used products and it was awesome. Yeah , the best thing was pricing on point. Like the Sonoff 4ch pro I bought for around 2.5k , was same on AliExpress too. On Amazon it was around 4000 and without remote. Hope eBay gets back here.

playstationdude Posted January 11, 2021 Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 Doesnt ebay us have the rights to ebay in again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2021 Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 5 minutes ago, playstationdude said: Doesnt ebay us have the rights to ebay in again? eBay has already ended partnership with Flipkart. They planned to relaunch eBay India at some point (2 years ago). eBay is great for both sellers and buyers. Great experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird Bird Bird Posted January 11, 2021 Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 I bought my first tablet - a NOOK HD - off Ebay. Costliest online purchase ever at that time. Of course, it went super smooth. Bought tons of things post that. Was a great site tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomShade Posted January 11, 2021 Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 Like one guy said, ebay.in was AliExpress of India, most exotic niche stuff you could find there like all kinds of hobbyist electronics components, or 3d printer parts and all, when we didn't even have specialty electronics component online store. really wonder what happened to the sellers on there? I bought my PSU from ebay in 2015, the seller was the overclockerzone/Tirupati distributor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t get why they bought it just to close it down. Especially since they did not replace it with anything.
