I just can't believe it... am appealing an "unpaid item dispute" for a set of Emancipation CDs...

And the seller has already CASHED MY CHECK!

Can anyone be this stupid?



Of course I'm sending the evidence to ebay.

I just can't believe anyone would do anything this obviously shysterish... she must think that she can get away with this, because I'm overseas.

I can't stop laughing...

That is proper snidey. I sent a cheque off for an item and didnt get anything in return. At the moment, Im waiting for a response on a t-shirt. I asked the seller if they could send me details so I could send a cheque but no reply.

It winds me up when they give you a negative mark and say you're a bad buyer if your cheque gets lost too!

Hey thanks...

That's why all sellers should work with PAYPAL!! Or the like. This one doesn't.

Well, I've sent the complaint (by email and letter) but truth be told, I'm a bit nervous about this situation because I've never had a dispute with a seller before - and my feedback is 100% good. I don't want that wrecked because of a crook...

My story is somewhat similar but entirely different at the same time. I made someone feel guilty because it took me ages to get round to paying for a bootleg DVD. I did eventually pay for and receive the item. However, at the same time, because I was so angry that he had given me a negative comment, I threatened to complain to Ebay that he was selling illegal DVDs.

Heiress said:

that is the only thing that used to bug me about ebay....they obviously got the money and then not only give you bad feedback but write a silly comment about how you didnt pay,etc ..messing up your perfect feedback

TIMEWASTER!! Bid for item, then didn't pay. No comms. My advice: DO NOT DEAL!!
Seller paulhughes1 ( 189) 11-Feb-04 22:28 3381642471

Now that hurt! Like I said, I did pay for the item in the end but only after kicking up a fuss first!

As you can see from the chart above, I booked my ideas up.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

what was the item? i think mine was a cd and the girl said i never paid her...she was obviously a freak.

Christopher said:

It was the '4 Those of U on Valium' DVD. I told Paul Hughes that 'he hurt my feelings'.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

LOL did he say sorry?

i have that performance on vcd..but it doesnt seem to work on my dvd player. so sadly i never seen it.

and i think my item was a no doubt cd single

Christopher said:

Yes he did. Although I cringed when I sent it because I though he'd turn round and tell me to stop being a big baby. Which I was being really.

JDINTERACTIVE said:

well at least he didnt try and send you a copy of the care bears sing the blues vol.1 after you got him all crazy.

I just don't like newbies who bid on something and then send u an e-mail after asking loads of silly questions they should've asked before the listing ended. Either that or they say their gf or bf bought something similar and they didn't realise and can they now cancel. File a non-paying bidder alert, take your fees, leave negative feedback. Only way to learn 'em.

Also, if no refund policy is detailed in the listing, that means u will not be getting a refund. Sure, u can send the item back if u like though. Sellers will be more than happy to relist the item.

0 feedback = watch out! It's a NEWBIE
Unverified address = no leg to stand on if item does not arrive.
Buyer leaves feedback before receiving item = happy, happy, happy!

what exactly is it you sell on ebay?

Christopher said:

Souls.

Whew! I have had nothing but a great experience on Ebay. I always wondered if I would ever have a problem..so far so great.

ive had people bidding for my items and then dissapearing

there was one other guy who bid then vanished i then
checked his feedback and it seemed he also wanted to buy like 6 cars
on that day

ive had someone take my money and then turn around and leave me bad feeback saying i didnt pay

and i recently had someone send me an unpaid item despute
then i emailed ebay and explained that i emailed the seller 3 times and got no reply...also told them that i refused to now pay for the item because of this
and all was good

Christopher said:

she better send me the CDs now, dern it.

Muse2NOPharaoh said:

I'm having a problem for the first time after 30+ experiences!

But I kind of bid against my better judgement... This chick had something like 4 or 5% bad feedback, and now I see it's more or less because she's a pain in the

funkii said:

good then, there's some hope for me...

JDINTERACTIVE said:

quite lamely one time i forgot all about paying for an auction... it was a one dollar vanity 6 album. i'm glad the seller reminded me! he was nice. and even left me good feedback after that. what a guy!

UPDATE:

Received email responses from seller, who appears to be a bit of a moron; that might be her only problem.

She's some chick selling CDs out of an apartment in Long Beach. As it turns out, she seems to have cashed my check without even knowing from whence it came!!

After all my explanations (that she apparently never read). What a .

:lol

Well she is sending your stuff then right?
