It was only a matter of time. Got Screwed

[Cutra 10+ year member]

Well it was only a matter of time.

I got screwed by a guy off Ebay.

This guy out bided me on an auction

for an amp. I then contacted him a month later

to try and convince him to sell me the amp.

He agreed, then I paid him top dollar for the amp.

I know that $260.00 u.s. is not alot of money yet it is

when every dollar counts in a one income family home like mine.

So I pay him he says he shipped out the amp. One month goes by,

yet never does he give me a tracking number or proof of shipment.

He then says that the post office in the U.S. told him there is no way

to get tracking info into other countries. Hmmmm so another month goes by

and no amp. Please note that this transaction was outside of Ebay yet I did

send payment via Paypal. The kicker is that when he sent me the money request

he did it as a service not as goods. I didn't see that part in the request and now

Paypal says that it's a service and they can't refund me based on non tangible items.

Some back and forth goes on with this scum bag and then he somehow says that he

now will send me half back in good faith. At this point I will take anything and another month

goes bye and he says that he is securing funds, yet he is buying lots on Ebay.

Then the other day he outbids me on an auction that I was bidding on. What the hell is going on?

So then I ask him why he is doing what he is doing. He says that he is no longer going to

send me anything.

All I wanted was my amp!.

Anyway I just want everyone to be careful when buying things in and out of Ebay and don't be fooled

by positive feedback. You never know what people are really all about.

p.s. his seller id on Ebay is jefferson2166 .

Never do ebay buys like that outside ebay. If they want to sell it to you, have them relist it as a Buy It Now and you get it that way.

If they don't agree, F them.

Actually there is tracking you just have to pay a bit more but it's possible.

I have bought many items and the sellers have put tracking on it.

Even if the guy had tracking to the boarder that would have been good to prove

that he shipped it.

Oh well such is life i guess.
