That's why I keep track of multiple IDs - why would someone change their name if it has a selling history with a reputation? Unless of course, they are trying to hide something - like unpredictable behavior that is often quite inappropriate for a business transaction.

I purchased a SS Twist from her (2 yrs ago), told her that I was bidding on some more of her auctions so if she could please wait she said no worries then went and resold the pony 3 days later & completely turned on me

Is she actually changing her id or just has multiple ones?

Here are my thoughts, if she changed her Ebay name to something cool like "PonyExpress" or something relevant it would make sense sort of. Some people make an Ebay account and are in such a rush to either sell or purchase they don't put much thought in their id.
But changing the name to some random numbers & letters? I agree, that is weird. Also, a while back I complained about a VERY shady buyer who was trying to get a refund for an item. He also changed his screen name after he was done trying to scam me.
I thought that was very suspicious. Actually, I thought that maybe he saw that we blocked him so he was trying to get around that but it didn't work.

| Why the changes in screen name though? Are the other accounts suspended or cancelled or just simply stop being used? I thought ebay was quite strict about multiple accounts... |
No, it's the same account. It's all one account but she's just changing the name. From what it sounds like, she only has one account.
For the record, if you get suspended or have a restricted account you can't open another account with Ebay. It's literally impossible. Same thing if your account isn't in good standing. You have to be in 100% good standing to open multiple accounts.

poniesandpetals is her new account, brand new, not an old one with a changed name. currently has 17 feedbacks.

I stand corrected. Thought she only had one account by what people were saying.

Ok, an update. I left feedback for my winger saying the wing was worse than described and the pics were posed to hide it (and they were, the wing is straight up in the pics but points at the floor in reality) and the seller issued me a $5 refund. I didn't ask her to because honestly I was expecting the pony to be more damaged than described (look at the seller's history!) and I paid a decent price for it. She also sent this note:

It was described as "a bit wiggly" in the auction but the pics showed an intact wing. It seems to be barely hanging on, not "wiggly." If she doesn't hide things, why was the wing posed to look perfect?

Oh, i was gonna say that must be a big dissappointment, but you already expected something worse? May i ask, if you already got that expectation, why you still bought stuff from her?
However, it's not fair if she is selling with false descriptions & not showing problems she knows her ponies have.
I just didn't expect this from her. As my other reply says, i purchased 2 or 3 ponies from her and they were very nice. To judge on my own experience with her, i'd buy again.
But when i hear multiple bad feedbacks on her, i am in doubt about it..
