ebay member jopa44

Anyone have any dealings with this member. I bought a Javier bat on February 16th from him. Was supposed to be shipped priority mail. Still dont have it. He says he went to the post office and they told him its still in the system. Whatever that means. He says he doesnt have a tracking number. Im sure thats not true. I know ebay will protect me but its frustrating to hear daily excuses. At this point im guessing he never shipped it.

He just responded saying he only has an insured number that tells him when I signed for delivery and has no tracking! How can usps let him know i signed if there isnt a tracking number? Am i missing something?

Sounds like it was sent parcel post not priority. Tracking costs extra when shipping parcel post. Also you can buy insurance with parcel post without buying tracking.

ok he may be ok. not sure. he provided me a copy of the insured receipt with machine printed numbers. Apparently did not send priority mail. Ughhh. Transactions should be easier!

[Phil316]

Yeah they should, I agree.

I sent a bat via post from Boston to Illinois last month and it took nearly 3 weeks to get there, with no tracking updates in between. Can't speak for this seller, but it was painfully slow. Having a patient buyer helped, but lesson learned on post in winter.

I've bought and traded over a dozen bats from Joe over the years and never have problems. I would trust him completely. In fact he and I recently exchanged emails/wantlists to see if we can put together another deal.

Don't worry, he's one of the good guys. But please add an update to this post when you get the bat, so the thread will include the conclusion to the deal, just to be fair.

absolutely i will. hes has given me more info that I am convinced it was shipped by him. I jumped to conclusions and am sorry for it! My mistake!

I send everything with tracking. It is not very expensive and makes it much easier to prove any issues with shipping.

He was supposed to refund my money today.....no response. His communication skills are lacking.
