A seller shipped me a phone that was much worse than what I bought, and it wasn't even the same brand. I returned it. However, the seller wouldn't ship the right phone but still had the listing saying several were available. I couldn't leave a negative review, which makes no sense, and I reported it to ebay, but as of yet nothing has happened to the seller that I can tell.

It's really disappointing. I want an Amazon alternative, but it's tough if I'm going to have to go through this crap.

We might just have to do without an alternative. I haven't ordered off of Amazon probably 5+ years now, and it's fine.
