Vintage Nike tennis shoes from 1970s-80s

These were in my uncles attic. He lived in boston around the 60s-present day and had met Phil Knight or a Nike Exec way back when and gotten these as a gift. They are size 9 with no ID tag. I had originally thought there were OG Killshots but theyre pretty different. Each shoe is the same size but fits differently as well.

Google Lens gives me different answers each time.

Forced to fully refund a buyer who returned a PC loaded with a Trojan virus. eBay support completely ghosted me. What are my options?

Hey everyone, I’m dealing with an incredibly frustrating situation with an eBay return and total radio silence from customer support. I need some advice on how to handle this or if anyone has successfully fought something similar.

I sold a micro PC on my tech reselling store. Within the 30-day window, the buyer opened a return request. Standard stuff, eBay forced me to pay for the return shipping label and offered zero upfront option to dispute it or withhold a partial refund.

The Twist: A Literally Toxic Return

When the PC arrived back, I booted it up to inspect it. Not only did the buyer leave all of their personal information and accounts logged into the machine, but it was also actively infected with a Trojan virus embedded deep in the root files.

Because of the automated system, I was forced to issue a full refund to the buyer. I have since completely wiped the drive, but because the Trojan was dug into the root directory, I'm genuinely paranoid that the hardware/firmware might still be compromised, making it unsafe to resell.

  • The Buyer: I messaged them immediately regarding the state of the machine. No response.
  • eBay Support: I filed a formal report against the buyer a month ago. Absolutely nothing.
  • The Appeal: I’ve tried reaching out through the standard customer service portals, sent a detailed email tracking the issue. It’s been a full month of dead silence.

I’m out the money, out the return shipping cost, and stuck with potentially compromised hardware that I can't safely list.

Has anyone successfully appealed a refund after it was closed due to a buyer returning damaged/compromised electronic goods?
