It's like he is trying to use all the awful buzz words that I hate. Just use lots of caps and exclamation points and maybe people will buy your overpriced shit I guess. 

Also just l o l at "Only ship $500+ 💎"

I love this listing for a BVM.


I honestly had to message him just to clarify he wasn't SELLING anythjng. Oh no. He allows you to rent his BVMs.

So yeah let's have multiple listings for items a person can pay to rent for a month pay for shipping and then pay to ship back or continue to pay monthly charges.


This confuses me as to me. eBay. Is a site used to SELL shit not rent. This isn't some sort of renters agreement site. They do co-sign shit to be rented on a monthly bases.


Even then how would the seller even enforce this whole renting thing through eBay?  If I were to BUY something and pay for shipment. Guess what?  It's mine. If I want to rent something I'd go to a brick and motor store who typically pays for delivery and pick up. Or average it in the cost of rental as well as offer insurance.

I googled a bit. From what I can see eBay doesn't offer renting as an option and when the item listing transaction. Is completed it is considered sold.

So I think someone here can get a BVM for $450 or less best offer plus $150 shipping here.

Sure the seller might claim it was a rental but. Was a rental agreement ever signed?  Was a deposit ever made?  Was the platform used a seller buyer platform?  And lastly does the seller have a case against the buyer for "renting". I do not belive so.


Also calling yourself "Sony" what ever in hopes that you sould like a legitimate part of Sony which the BVM was manufactured by is probably not a smart move when it is more then likely you are not part of Sony company in any form.

So I actually called eBay just to see if this was even allowed. When I asked the rep says "yes you are correct this is a buyer and seller platform".

She looks up the item number.

Then does as a 180 and say "oh no this is a ligitmaite item on our website you can rent. If you look in the description it says one week rental."

I then ask how des renter liability work and who signs the rental agreement form?"  How am I protected as either the renter or rentee in this case?

Rep "you'd have to message the seller directly and ask these question. Just make sure all communication is kept in our eBay messenger and do not go to any links so if you have an issue eBay can assist you."


In my mind I only see this as a BIG issues. eBay essentially said to me "we have nothing set in place to regulate monitor or protect any parties involved and it is just to messaging on eBay for fine print details.


I do not see this as a smart or secure way to do business for anyone. Involved.

And paying $450 plus fright for a single week rental?  f that noise.

Truthfully it's some sort of classroom auditorium thing with leadership taking about how to grow and develop our careers should we want to become management
