I purchased an item from a member a while back, i sent the paypal on 4/27 and have yet to see said items and now the seller is not replying to pm's.

I made the mistake of sending the money via friends and family seeing as how the person is an active, well respected member of the community i didn't think twice about it.


It would be nice to have a member feedback section or feedback status on items sold.

 

I've wondered the same thing. Never had a problem though. Make one! Out him! That's theft.

 

Do you have any recourse through PayPal?

 

Because he sent it as to friends and family I don't think so. Fees are less or zero for this option and in return I don't think there's any recourse if the transaction goes sour.

 

Yea, no fees for friends and family charges. That's how I receive and send all payments unless someone requests otherwise so I don't have to pay a fee. It does leave the buyer a little vulnerable, but I've never had a problem either.

I agree, just post the username. Maybe that will make them give you a refund.

 

I was contacted by the seller, the parts are packaged up and will ship next Monday. I'll update then.

 

Good luck and do post the name, I hate ripoff artists.

 

I am to blame. Not going to get into excuses, it was not my intention to cause the inconvenience. I am very sorry Juan, I shouldn't have sold the parts until they were off the truck.

 

no prob, Thanks for getting the items ready to ship. With the baby i haven't really been interested in working on the rover but new job means no more working late nights and weekends and would like to get the parts in/ aligned so i dont kill the tires.

 

ZG! Burn 'em at the stake!

Kudos to the OP for handling the situation in a respectful and non malicious manner! You're a good man. Glad to see this all worked out.
