Ebay robbing sellers
« on: 20 December 2007, 19:15:18 »

my wife likes her technology as much as i do, for xmas she had hinted she would like a Blackberry Pearl i tried to talk her out of it and in a way i think it was form over function that drove this decision of hers.

Found one on flea bay, new, seller had good feedback and the price was reasonable, we couldn't get one from the network as she works for them and they want full retail off her for it.....figure that one out!!!!!

Paid for by paypal as requested by seller, most probably the best thing i could have done, the next i hear from him is an email saying that the phone will not be supplied until the money has been deposited into his own bank account, at that point alarm bells were ringing, but he assured me that he would post it on the day it cleared into his account.

i should have listened to the bells  ::) i have heard noting from him, and am now out of pocket and the missus is without an xmas present  :o >:(

i am heading home to plymouth tomorrow, i have his address as supplied by Ebay when you dispute something, and it checks out with 192 as well, i am tempted to go round there and create mary hell demanding either my money or my phone........

I am somewhat livid currently, Ebay have referred me to Paypal and i have to fill in a buyer dispute, this will take until Dec 30th to sort at the earliest

Exactly the same thing happened to me with "tony5haw2007*2007" - no longer a registered user. Fortunately for me it was only a set of wheel trims that failed to turn up. PayPal did sort it all out for me in the end - but obviously it'll beof no use for you with your wife's prezzy.

I sold a phone on ebay and the buyer paid by debit card through paypal 2 days after I posted the Phone he reversed the transaction  and I lost my money,Try emailing him or phoning him again,It takes about 5-7 days to transfer paypal funds into a bank account,did you pay from funds in your paypal or with a cre/deb card through paypal and how long ago did you buy it?
If you get no response go round his house and staying calm rather hit him!

was paid for over a fortnight ago now, the guy has had the money, no doubt.

i paid by debit card, if you look at my feedback i have 99.4% positive with over 800 comments, you only have to use common sense to know i am not going to stuff someone with feedback like that.

I think i will be paying a visit on the way home tomorrow, i will keep a level head, if the guy tells me to take a hike i will go.......but maybe one night  ;D ;)

I once heard of a pint of fishing maggots through the letter box to get your own back. They crawl into the hidden recesses of the hall/house untill they hatch! Mmm blue bottles by the hundreds!  :-?
