Here's one:

I wanted to crap my pants when excitement when I saw that it said that you were no longer a registered user!

I'm sure that ebay will not lock someone after just one hit. He must have done this before...

The great thing is that it doesn't show one someone's account if they've been noted as non-paying bidders before, not even negative feedback!

It takes three NPB (non-paying bidder) complaints before ebay will NARU someone. This must have been the guy's third one.

I wasn't aware of this, and they obviously didn't make it very apparent.

Also, I did not put the paypal logo, or have the option to pay directly through paypal on my auction. I put "other method" and listed that it could be paid in the manner listed etc etc.

I will prob in the future put up a second paypal account to accept CC's.

Actually you DID list Paypal as a payment auction in the auction.

Here's your AUCTION in case you forgot.

as your auction ended prior to August 19, you weren't obligated to accept CC-Paypal, but your response still makes you an ass.

As I said, look at the bottom and it says "OTHER". Maybe I wasn't specific enough. I didn't list paypal as an option under "Shipping and Payment Details".

From your auction listing:

Payment
Payment

Payment (or notification of payment shipping) must be made within 72 hours unless other arrangements are made.

Acceptable payment methods are as follows:

* Personal Check (with adequate time to clear)
* Money Order
* Paypal drawn from a bank account (credit card payments NOT accepted)
* other payment methods may be acceptable (send a message and get confirmation before bidding)

That sucks how eBay forces you to accept CC payments and eat the fees.

So in actuality, I am completely right. I did nothing wrong at all. The guy made the mistake TWICE after I spelled it out to him over and over and over.

You guys sure do love a witch hunt, don't you?

When you're right, you're right. I should look closer before I post. I was wrong. I'm mature enough to admit it. Now how about everyone else in the thread?

but you're still a dick. He was trying to make good on his part. He was a dumbass, but you're just a prick. The vast majority of ebay users have no idea what you mean when you say "confirmed address" or "non-cc paypal".

So I sold this MAP Sensor on ebay, this guy bids and never pays, then he tries to pay with a credit card, I told up front that I cannot do this. He says he'll send a money order, he never does. I report him to ebay, and his account is locked HAHAHA!!!

Then I get a payment from him on paypal. AGAIN it is with a credit card.

Hilarity Ensues:

ME:

Again, I cannot accept credit card payments. I can only accept payments that
are funded by a bank account. This is listed explicitly in my auction
listing.

HIM:

I already paid you ok!! You have the money...so, why are you crying now?? Just keep the damned money, keep your sensor, and remove the locks that you put on my e-bay account.

I am tired of dealing with you. So, just take the money, remove the locks and disappear.

It's unbelief that you call your self a "seller" when you don't have an idea of what is the customer service, I am not a fake buyer, but I was not going to be waiting for your e-mail with your address to send the money order, all this time. I NEEDED THAT SENSOR URGENTLY!! And apparently you didn't worried about that. So, now I am not going to please your whims ok.

Just tell me are you going to keep the money or not?

ME:

I cannot keep the money, I have no way to accept credit card payments.

As much as I would love to keep your money, I won't. Also, I am not crying, if anything I am smiling! It is hilarious that they suspended your ebay account. I wanted to crap my pants when excitement when I saw that it said that you were no longer a registered user!

And I have no way of removing the lock. Ebay has put that on your account because of you irresponsibility, not me.

Don't lecture me on customer service. I am pursuing a master's degree and have been working with customer service for five years. From your spelling mistakes, you probably don't even have a high school diploma. Take this as a learning experience. You need to make sure that you read and understand all terms before buying anything. If you had any questions about purchasing, you should have asked before you purchased.

Also, if I am not much of a seller, why do I have 100% feedback from nearly 50 people (not to mention those who don't leave feedback).

I understand your need for the sensor. I have been in that scenario. I would have shipped it out next day if you had given a VALID form of payment. However you did not. You dropped the ball. It's just too bad, and I do not feel sorry for you. One day you will learn to stop blaming others for your mistakes.

I will deny the credit card payment... when I get around to it.

You're kind of a dickhead.

 

[homestarmy]

If I said "non-cc paypal" sure. But Paypal drawn from a bank account (credit card payments NOT accepted) is a different story.

It's like getting gas at a gas station and missing the sign that is in front of you that says CASH ONLY or DISCOVER NOT ACCEPTED or something like that. Only with my situation, he was REQUIRED to read it.

Only because the new rule went into effect 2 days later...

You turned me into a newt.... I got better.

the average person doesn't equate "credit card payments not accepted" with Paypal. The assume you mean you won't process CC, but that they can use PP to send money. Just how it is.....run into it many times, and a good seller is patient and helps explain it.

No it's not like that at all. The gas station has the right to accept whatever forms of payment they choose and so do you. However, with the new rules, IF you decide to accept paypal you MUST take all forms of payment valid to paypal. You can't pick and choose to avoid fees. Likewise, the gas station cannot legally charge extra for your using a credit card. But through a loophole, they can discount for cash.

 

[Jeff7181]

I would have done the same thing... actually I have done similar things with eBay members. I guess that makes me an asshole too, but I already knew that.

 

[Ipno]

Ok let me break it down to you:

Ass Response: "You can't understand my instructions. HA HA! I report you to ebay and get your account suspended! DIE LOSER, and I will go make fun of you on a random internet forum, take that!"

Non-Ass Response: "Sorry, but I did specify the method of payment, if you can't meet it, we will go through ebay to relist it without fee and we'll call it even. Sorry about the confusion, I just don't want to have my paypal account charged the extra 2.9% on all transactions from here on out, you understand."

 

[aircooled]

you've spent more than 2.9% dealing with the situation. you could have been paid and be done with it already.
I learned early on to accept CC through paypal. sucks to have to pay the fee, but you learn how to deal with that.

 

[BooGiMaN]

instead of that long drawn out reponse you could have just replied:

"neener neener...sucks to be you!"

Oh my God! A person made a mistake!!!! :roll: Seriously, he was just being dumb, but you were being an assh0le. It's bad enough that you got his account locked and then you come here and boast about "owning" him. Does your life feel fulfilled now?

Lording your education over an idiot NEVER makes you look intelligent.

 

[silverpig]

Reverting to picking out spelling mistakes is the lowest form of internet ownage. It's gotten to the point where it only owns yourself for being lame enough to do it.
