ladies and gents, I've suffered too long for being a positive thinking person, please allow my vent and share your input. Won item 01/18/08, paid same night w/bank account (I KNOW, I KNOW), seller adviced 100% refund if item is replica, I saved all the emails. Yet when I contact seller for refund w/detail describition of why the bag and wallet is off, all of sudden no email, eBay message or Paypal dispute/claim message reply. feEbay said it's not their problem, their mile long terms are only there to protect their behind in every possible way. Paypal said they are just a messenger, buyer protection is up to seller's qualification. Bank said they don't deal w/Paypal or eBay b/c it's full of scams. Paypal sided w/my claim since seller never bother to reply, refund 'the best of Paypal's ability to trace back the $" lousy 200 out of bloody 27xx.xx auction! What the heck does it mean their 'best ability'!? the payment was send in ONE transaction, there's no reason they can only 'trace' back less than 10% of it. Clearly a multi million corp like Paypal let me suffers more than 90% of lost, and they just have a 200 lost on their book.
There are 2 other vicitms which I've introduce myself, and ask them to report seller. I've report SNAD, replica, and IC3 as well as seller's local police station. what else can i do? After I press on Paypal, the rep said after 3 or 6 month of seller's account sat in negative, collecting agency will then come to play (guess it depends on how bad paypal want some of it's money back), then it's up the collecting agency to collect, IF they are successful that is. Urgh! I'm fumming mad at this time. Do I have to appear in Small claim court of TX or NY if I'm in TX and scammer is in NY!?
