Re: Need Advice ASAP Ebay/Paypal Buyer Switched Items

Thanks again for everyone's help. I tried talking to both of our families and friends, most are clueless as to what to do.

On a side note what an epic thread this has turned out to be. Alot of information has been shared. If this happens to anyone else (god I hope it doesn't) this will definately be helpful.

Your best bet is to consult a lawyer, many give free consultations to find out all of your options, who you have a case against, etc.

I will say this. From the research I have done I would be better off taking PayPal to court than the lady. I wouldn't even have to leave WA state to sue PayPal. I have read several judgments against paypal for the EXACT same thing this lady is doing.

Please sue Paypal. Maybe after they loose enough lawsuits, they will make the necessary changes to prevent thieves like this from ripping people off.

I know I'm late to this thread, but I had a similar issue and I contacted my local police dept. They came to my house and took my statement. The policeman said there was nothing he could really do, but said he'd try his best to help me out. The policeman contacted the police department where the buyer lived and asked if a policeman up there would run by the buyer's house and let them know a report had been filed and give them my phone number. About an hour later I received a phone call from the buyer's wife who had no idea what was going on. I explained to her what her husband was trying to pull and advised her if she didn't want him in legal trouble that he needed to drop his dispute. She was upset, but said she didn't want any trouble and would make sure the situation was fixed The next day the dispute was gone. Seems like resolving these type of issues is always a long shot, I got lucky.

Well kids good news !!!



We received an email this morning from PayPal asking us to send in the package we received back from the lady and when they receive it they will process a full refund to our account.

We are still planning an filing mail fraud charges through the post office so hopefully they will suspend her from receiving mail.

Alot of stress has been lifted off our household that is for sure.

Thanks again

Chris,

Keep your fingers crossed buddy!


I have the same letter email back from similar situation - I supposed to get refunded for item not received as described .... guess what, it never happened since they CANT verified the tracking number for the package ... then they will ask you to fax over the post office receipt along with tracking number... with the promise that you will be refunded....


So to make the story short ... dont hold your breath.


I am still waiting for my refund ... and it happened five months ago!

Maybe..

But if I was you, make sure the tracking number is TRACKABLE and as soon as the package is DELIVERED, call them up and by pass the customer services rep.... request a manager and hopefully you get your re-imbursement!


(just finish speaking with a manager... so with the exact replied... i should get the refunded within 7 days!)



Still keeping my fingers crossed!
