Bad buyer on eBay... How should I handle this?

Recommended Posts

Are you sure the one he sent you is the same one? I honestly see Ebay just sending him the money. But keep him on block so when you do relist it. But I also would not relist it right away. Now here is my question did he do the tracking on it? Or did it just show up? I would definitely inspect the thing to make sure. While filing a fraud on him

Here's a dirty trick you can play. Did he send it signature confirmation or delivery confirmation? If he sent it delivery confirmation you can 'claim' you never received it back. Of course, it means you can't resell it. But you could get him at his own game.

If you do resell it, then resell it on Craigslist later I definitely would not try to resell it right away, no matter what you decide to do

He shipped it via UPS. No signiture confirmation though.

Dude that just saved you, as long as you didn't sign for it and it was just sitting on your doorstep. I had that happen with BBTS, where my first Music Label Soundwave was delivered to the wrong house, and UPS could not confirm that it was dropped off at my house so BBTS shipped me a replacement Soundwave. The guy who's house it was delivered to brought it over about month after I got my replacement. Supposedly it was under a bush that whole time and the box was not messed with. So as long as you did not sign anything you can claim you never received it

If you still have that second SW and it's blue... PM ME!!! :argh

And there, my friend, is your out. Contact the buyer, ask him if he has shipped it yet, ask for a tracking number and tell him you have not seen it yet. Once you verify that there was no signature confirmation and it shows as 'delivered', contact eBay/PayPal and claim that you never received the item. Under eBay's policy, the ball should fall back in his court for proof.

 

:agree

I suspose it couldn't hurt to do a appeal.

 

Has the ebay buyer received his money back from ebay/paypal yet? if not, a repeal put in by you might make ebay hold on to the funds until another decision gets made.

 

worse case scenario you make the buyer waste more of his time. by writting emails to ebay & paypal further explaining his situation.

If he sent you back what you sent him, the honest thing to do is give him his money back minus shipping costs since there was nothing wrong with the item... but there's no problem with making him waste more time with this transaction...
