Hi Merrydish
It is dodgy....Now I'm trying to force the seller to refund me the money first before i send back the necklace...because I'm scared that she will claim that she doesn't receive or anything...
about the "you told your cc company that you're not going to pay to ship for counterfeit goods"...who reimbursed you?? paypal or cc company??
she kept on saying to me that I'm covered by paypal....which I have clearly called paypal and they said I'm not....
Any opinions of How should I force or threaten her to refund me first??
Hi Starium
Yes i did the deal outside ebay as she said she can pass on the savings to me...and asked me to use personal tab on paypal instead....I thought since there was a buyer before me, so it should be alright.....and she also sent me pic of the receipt....so i thought should be fine...
and when i received the necklace and posted here, one of the authenticators confirmed that it's a fake...she didnt refuse to refund, but she said she can't refund the shipping cost, which she charge me for 62 CAD.... and she wants me to ship under her friend's address, because she claimed she rents her apartment to her friend...
I told her that I want confirmed address bearing her name, just like in her driving license...so I can have confirmed details and proof that i sent to the correct address.....and again, I'm scared that she can claim she doesn't receive it....
so now I try to force her refund me the money...she said she's scared that I will not return it...and i told her just press the refund button and leave note for me that I have to return the necklace, so at least it's documented...
well, I gotta tell you, ebay is getting scarier....i saw her feedback before, she told one auth. chanel...it looks alright for me....so that's why i though it should be fine buying from her...well who knows...maybe it's only a bait for buyers....
hi ladies...
Thanks for all your supports....=D
I have successfully got my refund back from her....as I told her, I'll go to police as I ahve evidence and statement that her necklace is fake....after all the long emails and waiting, she was scared and refund me....and now I'll send the necklace back....
I paid 999 for the necklace with shipping included....first time she refused to give me full refund because she claimed that she paid 62 CAD for the shipping cost to Australia....which of course I refused, because It's not my fault and responsibility to absorb the shipping cost since I receive a fake item
She only wanted to refund 930 usd to me...then somehow she said no partial refund option on paypal and she refunded me full (999 usd)....OF course I'm very happy.....
BUT...she still asks me to pay her 62 CAD for the initial shipping cost that she lost....
I don't think I want to pay the shipping cost that she claimed....because it's not my fault at all.....right? What do u guys think??
I am definitely paying for the returned shipping to Canada, which will cost me 70 AUD ~ 60 USD.....and I'm paying from my own pocket....so I don't feel that it's my responsibility at all to pay for her initial shipping cost....since she's the one at fault
AM i right??
I believe that paypal protects you wherever you buy or sell from. I use paypal for my own website and as long as you are mailing to a confirmed address it should be covered. I don't know if it protects buyers though...because I never had to worry since I am always the sellerCorrect me if I am wrong. I thought Ebay or Paypal will not able to help out if there are problems once you purchased outside ebay? Is your transaction made outside Ebay? Just curios because you said that you made a deal with the seller. Don't ship the item unless you have a confirmed address, just in case seller denied receiving the item. Call your CC company. I would also pay extra for confirmed signature and tracking if you return the item. This sound so fishy to me, hope things will be alright.

Call your CC company now, and ask them all these questions. They can tell you immediately whether sending to another address, whether the seller closes her paypal account etc will still entitle you to your charge back. Your cc company is in a better position to advise you than us, as I believe that different cc companies have different policies, esp since (I think) you're from Australia, your cc company may not have as good a charge back policy as those from the US.
