Am I unlucky or what? My two purchases from eBay this month seem to be full of problems. The first one was wrongly shipped to another country by USPS. Seller has since refunded me the money, case closed.
Now my second purchase. I paid immediately in less than 10 hours from close of bidding. Paypal showed my transaction had been completed. But two days later, I still did not receive any news from seller regarding her sending the bag. After my email, she told me she could not view the funds I sent her because Paypal is checking her account. I even sent her print screens from my PP a/c, showing clearly that money had been sent but she wanted to wait for it to be shown on her account. She explained that under EU regulations, PP will conduct random annual audit of Paypal accounts, and had requested that she sent them her ID for PP to conduct their checks. This is EU's audit to prevent illegal money transfers.
I don't even know if this is true. It has been 6 days since I paid. Should I believe her? PP had replied me stating money is definitely with her. She is not a new seller. She has more than 40 feedback and 100% positive. All mentioned about fast delivery of goods, in addition to other comments.
