This is not card related perse, however this seller moves a lot of DVD's on the bay. Just wanted to share my recent experience so no-one else has to go what I through.
GOSSIP GIRL COMPLETE SECOND SEASON 2 TWO *NEW* DVD R4/1 - eBay Television Shows, DVDs, Movies, TV Shows, Movies. (end time 14-Oct-09 01:13:56 AEDST)
Anyway, I order Gossip Girl season 2 (for the gf, no really) and pay my $70.85 which includes regular post straight away by paypal. Next thing you know, he is emailing me asking for an extra $6 as paypal 'requires items to be sent by registered mail'.
All up that is $16 for postage...from Brisbane...but I paid it because I really wanted it quick. Anyway so I paid $16, but the thing is he usually takes about 10 days to send his items so what the hell is the point of paying for express anyway? He advertises as 'In Stock in OZ!!!' when in reality it would be quicker to get it from ebay usa!
Anyway I am waiting...waiting it never comes! I email him a few times and get this lovely auto response each time. Eventually I get a reply and he is so rude in his emails, telling me it will be there etc. Time goes by, now waiting 20 days after paying $16 for express post and he finally says it is sent and gives me the tracking number. 5 days later it's not here. I open the paypal case asking for a refund as Australia Post have informed me they have lost it...all he needs to do is click the refund button and I will get my money back but he doesn't...he just waits and waits and emails me to say that he would have given me my money back straight away if I didn't email him 'all the time' asking about the whereabouts of my overpriced item. How rude is that?
Anyway I just got my money back from paypal, both the $70.85 and the $6 transactions and wake up this morning to find this seller ggr8 has opened an unpaid item strike against me! What an absolute moron!!!
DO NOT DEAL WITH THIS GUY. HE IS SNEAKY, RUDE AND DISHONEST. Just a heads up guys. Good thing is I got this letter from Australia Post asking me to confirm the item never came, I think for him to get re-imbursed that needs to be signed and sent back. Fat chance of that happening mate!!!
