i am going to send in a Paypal froud and see if i can get some of my money back. If anyone lives around ohio and wants to F this guys car up for me it would be greatly appreacated :lol:
Anyways this is the second time on FA that I have been screwed. Beware.
Whew. I just bought some spindles off a guy in Ohio, and was getting worried, but today they arrived. Half the excitement i get from receiving parts, is knowing that i didnt get scammed.
Well he just sent me back 152usd and is going to send me 8usd tonight. i lost about 15cnd in paypal fees.
I am happy i go most of it back. I had to threaten this guy like crazy!
Ya he said that he ened up selling them to some one eles that payed just befor me and then he said his computer was not working properly so he could barlaly use it… BS he wasnt going to pay me back if i didnt threaten him with the paypal fraud thing.
i’ve spent maybe $4000 in the past month on parts like that.
just find it on a forum or where-ever, send the cash. what do you or i care, its insured.
if he fukks you u can file a chargeback with paypal. if paypal is a bitch you can go to your credit card company and get the money back.
i’ve done both in the past.
hell, you can get your money back from Paypal AND your CC company even if you get the shit in good order. yay…
good call on getting your money back though.
the worst is when its people intentionally scamming people like that fag LETMESEE in alberta. i was able to get a couple dudes money back from that though.
even called the police in the dudes hometown.
but you know what, sometimes you just gotta take a bit of risk.
i sent a friggin money order down to florida recently for some stuff. that was sorta scary. no insurance on that.
it all worked out in the end though
just play it by karma, dont screw people and you prolly wont get screwed. but if you get screwed, screw the fukker back 5 times worse.
i can vouch for everything bing just said, i run a web and server hosting company and most of the payments made to be are via credit card and/or paypal.
people screw me quite often by buying something from me, after I deliver the SERVICE (key word to paypal and the cc companies) they file a complaint and the money gets taken from me, even though I’m doing nothing wrong - they can claim i didn’t deliver the service and I’ve got no way of prooving it outside of court. It sucks, but its a fantastic strategy for buying services online (hosting, porn, etc) and it works great wink
Why don’t you ship with UPS or DHL where they package is tracked and even the person picking up the product has to sign, then they can not say you did not send it to them.
