Are you shipping to alternate addresses given to you by the “buyer”? NEVER ship to anywhere except the address supplied by PayPal or Stripe. Otherwise, your Seller protection may not apply.

Is it your new merchandise that that’s happening to? It could be drop-shippers or just your everyday thief who is out to get whatever they can for nothing. I sell pre-owned collectibles and toys that my buyers seem to really want, so I haven’t had that problem on a large scale.

What amazes me is how the credit card companies (or PayPal, whoever…) allow these thieves to make charge backs time after time! Seems like the credit card companies are part of the overall problem in enabling these crooks to steal from you!

Sorry this is happening to you.

We’re going to Start including a Note along with the Packing Slip about the Drop Shippers in every Shipment.
Not only on this Platform, but on every Platform we sell on.

Hello and Thank You for your order.

Please see the attached Packing Slip.

If you paid more for your items, or purchased your items from a different store, or a different selling platform other than what you see on your packing slip. Please let us know, as this means you were a Victim of a Drop Shipping Thief.

You can send us a message through the platform and store listed on your packing slip, as well as letting the Customer service reps on Both selling Platforms know that you have been taken advantage of by Drop Shipping Thieves.

Drop shippers are a huge problem for Online Retailers and are basically nothing more than high tech thieves. They steal from both the customers and the sellers whose items, are not theirs to sell.

If you suspect you were the victim of a Drop Shipper, please report them to the selling platform you purchased your items from, and please let us know as well.

Thank you again for your purchase,
It is Honest and loyal Customers like you, that make what we do rewarding.

We’re sending the Same Message to The Fake Accounts who have been back charging our accounts on PayPal already, so they don’t just switch platforms and start doing it to us on eBay or the other sites.

Drop shippers are not breaking any rules by selling & having items sent from a 2nd party~~such as selling Walmart items or Amazon items & having Walmart or Amazon ship the items to the buyer. I’ve bought from MANY dropship sellers & had no problems. I just recently had a buyer do the same thing to me with a purchase here on Bonanza. He filed a chargeback through paypal and I lost my $$, my item, my original shipping cost AND Bonanza wouldn’t even give me a refund of my seller fees so I lost that too. I have my items listed here but I really couldn’t care less if anyone purchases from me~~in fact I’ve been thinking of closing my account here. Bonanza offers absolutely no protections for either buyers or seller. The few items I sell here aren’t even worth my time. I sell on ebay & they have protection for both buyers & sellers. I can’t even remember the last time a buyer ever did a chargeback on their payment on an ebay sale~~I’ve been selling there for over 21 years. The problem here on Bonanza is that they offer no protection so it’s breeding ground for scammers. If you sell something here you’re on your own~~they don’t involve themselves if things go wrong. They are a venue & that’s all they are. I average $1200.00+ a month in sales on ebay with no problems. Ebay has a totally different class of buyers~~they aren’t out to screw the sellers. If they do, ebay deals with them. Here on Bonanza they don’t care.
