Haven't purchased on ecrater yet, but I am a seller there with a 100% seller rating. And, yes, there are many good sellers on ecrater. While ecrater is not as convenient and easy to use as etsy or ebay, I do occasionally sell on ecater because of low seller fees compared to those on ebay, where I have to raise prices on my products to compensate for high selling fees.
For those who want to buy from ecrater: do some homework beforehand and check the seller first: how long his store is open, seller ratings, what kind of payments are preferred. And, unless you trust the seller, never pay directly from your bank account. Pay with Paypal or a credit card, and contact those companies immediately if there is something wrong with your purchase.
Good Luck!
About Ur Face is the name of the seller on this site. She promptly took my money for a product I bought and never sent it. So I contacted her after 2 weeks and she only responded after I threatened to report her for theft and fraud. In her response, she gave absolutely no explanation for why she never sent the product. In fact, the response made no sense whatsoever. I think she may have confused me with another customer and another product because she said she was sorry the product was ruined. RUINED? I never even got it! Sigh. I'll never trust this site and these moronic sellers again. I highly suggest you stay away.
I sell on here, and I am happy to say I like it. I have been on ebay since its inception, and still sell on there today. The ecrater site has less traffic than ebay. But I have not had an issue with any ecrater seller or customer... my username on ebay and ecrater is midtnpower. We have over 6500 combined sales on the 2 sites, and 100 percent feedback on both.(never a neutral or negative). We welcome any of you that think either is a scam site to try us out!
I have bought items online since the internet was an infant and have had thousands of transactions.
That said, I do know what is good and bad as far as sites are concerned.
I shop eCRATER with total confidence. This site should be bookmarked so you can browse through the many things offered on this great site. Give it a good try, it is worth it!
I rate eCRATER as fantastic!
Purchased MS Office software and significantly reduced price and had an installation issue, Thought I'd my money and could not "call" support - but I received an email shortly after my inquiry from a principal (I think) of Ecrater and he work with me one on one for about an hour and a half to resolve my installation issues. These guys are outstanding! If you want and need software at a very reasonable price, go no further - this place is the best that I've dealt in a very long time!
I used this website to order license for Office 2021. The website had the best online price, I was able to get the license key with the detailed instructions and I was able to download, install and activate Office 2021 without any issues.
Very easy and quick to respond with any questions. I love this site. Going through the different merchandize, it explains what to do and when I had a simple question I received a response within a short time.
I would give eCrater negative 5 stars, if I could! There are no protections for the buyers at all. Most of the stores use Paypal, a trusted company, to secure the transaction. However, you never hear from the buyer and they already have your money before you can stop the transaction and save your money. ALWAYS use a credit card if you have to use the site. They will more than likely refund your money.
I am a seller on eCRATER.com (http://germenchocolate.ecrater.com). From my experience as a seller, everything is great except traffic.
I don't expect the kind of traffic we get on Ebay or Amazon, but I only have a few sales per month and I'm sure my high quality low price items are not the problem.
I think one way to get sales going is to have buyers leaving feedback and eCRATER needs to do a better job to encourage buyers to leave feedback.
On Ebay about 30% of buyer would leave feedback(100% positive for me), but on eCRATER so far no feedback.
I hope the traffic will improve over time.
I ordered a phone that was advertised as being in brand new condition from a seller listed as evirtualz or shop majors (both names appeared at different times during this transaction). This to me means that it will arrive in new packaging, with an unused battery and SIM card, directions, and an invoice or packing list. What arrived was a used phone with scuff marks wrapped in an NFL paper towel and bubble wrap, a charger, and a piece of paper with a message stating that I will need to purchase a new SIM card and then do a hard factory reset. That is not a brand new phone. I e-mailed ecrater/the seller twice trying to get information on how to return the phone. I have yet to hear a reply.
The installation went perfect. I had a problem with activation of the product, but the seller Yan One was extremely helpful, he immediately responded with his help, so the activation had been completed in no time. I am very thankful to the seller, would recommend him to everybody.
It's already been said but eCrater is a platform for you to open your store to sell and each store is independently run. You can be scammed here just as you can on eBay (where I've been scammed plenty!).
Check for reviews and contact vendors to make sure they have products in stock if you're worried about a sale.
They r very nice and very proffesional i had some questions about the item i purchased and i got a quick response and they also have free shipping and only 4 days to get here which i thought was really cool it also tells u information about the seller u want to buy from
Bought an Ihome smart plug. The device does not work. E mailed them immediately. No response yet. Will call my bank2morrow. Please know that you will be blasted on Social media if my issue isnt corrected.
Yes is infested with Chinese masked sellers using American sounding names and other scammers just like Amazon or eBay are too; but if you are smart you can get lots of great deals!
My own rules are: never buy from anyone with less than one year and at least 30 awesome or positive ratings; Never buy from anyone that uses a STOCK photo meaning they dont bother to take a few pictures but just copy them form the Google search for images Never buy from anyone selling items over $50 and that wont deal meaning message them asked them plenty of questions and if they have a real store or not.
So far I have scored great items and eCrater has always responded to my messages and even closed some unscrupulous sellers - you must report them and help keep the site clean. Also never pay when they ask you if you could do paypal phone cash or any other way than ecraters pay service. (to be covered)
I purchased Patrick Mehomes jersey on 4/12. Was told 10 days. Today is 4/29 and no jersey, but they had no problem taking money from senior. Ridiculous that PayPal can't do something about this. Have notified bank and BBB.
EBay Craiglist want to be website that has been already destroyed by stripe scammers. Market engine is very weak, 40 listings contacted by 1 scammer they almost got me to ship diamond ring.
Demetri or close enough name is parasite owner with parasite fees
Oh how I wish there was a way to leave negative stars! This site doesn't deserve one star! DO NOT ORDER from this site! You WILL regret it! AND if you do, don't expect your order to be correct! AND, if you try to contact them, you will be called names and will not receive an apology, offer to fix the problem or refund. Be warned! Major scam artists!
The description of the jersey said it had stitches letters and such. When I received it I have never seen a jersey EVER look like this. For one it says it's a adult XL but it's close to a youth. The color is a faded brown and where the number 81 is was just white. Linda like the jersey was white and the faded the rest Brown. Same with the name plate on back. When I emailed him the complaint he said send it back. He knows it will cost to much to send $37 jersey back to China than it's worth. You are screwed!
And the description is still the same after my complaint.
This is a scam!
I purchase something through this say the company name was macgenius. They hit my bank account that's for sure. Didn't receive s*** this place is a total f****** scam job. Shouldn't even be allowed to be on the internet. I think I'm going to call the FTC and let them know a few things...
