I recently read about an eBay buyer who was threatened by the seller after the launched a dispute and won and subsequently left a negative feedback for the seller. Actually, this is not the first case that I came across. If I remember correctly, someone experienced something similar shopping on Lelong.
If you think that shopping online is safer than meeting face to face, you couldn't be more wrong. Shopping online, if there is a dispute, you would have already communicated with each other at some level. Address and contact numbers would have been confirmed. With such information on hand, it's not difficult to track someone down.
Sometimes, if the amount lost is not that high, I wouldn't even bother to go through the trouble to lodge a dispute. One could never tell if the person we are dealing with would act irrationally!
