hi,

I posted a laptop for sale on Ebay and this individual sent me an email told me that he would sent out the payment using paypal. He told me to ship overnite to his grandson as a birthday present on last Friday. I said okay, then he pay me using paypal. He didn't want to have the signature sign by anyone except to leave the package outside the door so his grandson have it as a surprise when he arrived home from school. I told him okay too. He paid me using paypal, and i shipped overnite using Airborne Express without getting any signature. Then 2 days ago he called up his credit card, and paypal reversed my transaction. I emailed him back asking him to pay me for the reversed amount that paypal took from my account. He said okay, he'll do it the next day that's today. I emailed him back today and he told me that he was about to paypal me but his grandson said he never received my laptop. Now today (4 days later) he's claiming that his grand son never received the package?. What the heck? What should i do? I already sent paypal the tracking number, but don't know what paypal going to do with the money. Any idea would help? I told him that i would take him to court if he won't pay me back the money.

You can't leave someone negative feedback unless it was with a completed auction through ebay. The transaction that you had with him won't hold any water with ebay, since it didn't have anything to do with them. You're VERY lucky you were able to recover your money though. I think for all the negative stuff that's said around here against paypal, someone should finally give them a pat on the back. They bailed you out big time.

You can't. That's the risk you take if you go outside of ebay, you can't leave feedback.

Which means they can't leave you feedback either. In this situation I would count my blessings since they could've blasted you with a false negative and ebay will not delete it, even if you have proof of fraud, ebay doesn't care.

he used swissupply@aol.com for his paypal acct. So you guys also be careful not to get scam by this individual paypal account.



btw, paypal canceled his reverse transaction so i'm happy now don't have to deal with authority.

You should contact ebay and tell them his account name and tell them he is contacting people outside ebay's listings to purchase. Realize that you may lose your own ebay account for responding but can probably get out of it by claiming ignorance.

I smell TROLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The No Signature part should have tipped you off. You got Screwed. File a claim with the shipper. If it disappeared off the doorstep, then they may be liable.

no not all are bad and not all are good. It's good to know how to deal with the system or you'll get screw like me. This is the first hard lesson to be learn when dealing with ebay, paypal or any other online transaction.

he emailed me from epsonstyle11@aol.com and confirmed that he will overnite the money order to me. Then he didn't do that. So i think this got to be him because no way can hacker hack AOL acct and paypal and then ebay. He changed his ebay username, and use aol acct to contact me all this time. If it was hack then he should at least know about the email part.
