And you let the listing run for 6 more days? 

I think that’s pretty shady personally speaking. I’d be pretty disappointed if I were bidding on the item to have it pulled at the last minute. I’d think you didn’t get the amount you were hoping for, and wasted my, and others time. Most likely I’d avoid any of your future auctions.  

Listen, you don't know my medical condition and my track record speaks for itself.  There was Nothing shady or malicious done on our end.  We relisted 200 items and that listing wasn't noticed until it was pointed out.  How dare you accuse us of trying to mislead our customers. Your ignorance is what needs to be examined, not my character.

Eddie was the owner.   I think he moved PA with his son.  Nice guy

I relisted the book by accident.  I am ending the auction.  And the buyer still has not responded to any emails.

I agree that if he has been refunded, he should return the book. The grading fees should not be on you.

If I may give some advice, and you can take this for what it's worth from someone who occasionally buys books on eBay, I think the wording in your auctions is a little combative towards buyers (especially the last part). I think there is a better way to say all of what you have said without that last part in the description. 

Ok thank you.  Will restructure our description.

Is the $80 amount the purchase price of the book, or was the buyer trying to get more than the purchase price to recoup those fees?

**edit**
Or was this $80 a lesser amount than the purchase price?

The book was 221.00 raw 9.4 with 9 pictures.  There was no popped staple. I researched his sales and noticed that he sold a raw Eternals 1 and 2 on May 12th. He informed me that since I checked his sales records I would see that he purchased many Eternals #1 in the past and that he had already advised paypal that the Eternals #1 that he sent to CGC was indeed the one I sent him.  I can't understand why paypal would allow him the refund since he admitted that the book is no longer raw , but graded.  He never even provided pictures of the graded book.  Paypal and EBay sure makes it easy for buyers to commit fraud.  Unbelievable

Maybe he's in the hospital and doesn't have access to his email?

 

You are calling this person a scammer as if he know that the return address was incorrect and decided, "hey I know what I'll do...I'll put in a claim to get my money back, send the book back to the old address only to have the book returned to me so I can keep it"  

These are the facts:

Fen_vivia purchased a Raw ETERNALS #1 from us on May 1st

On July 15th he filed a not as described claim with PayPal because he sent the book to CGC and it supposedly had a popped  staple.

He reqested a 80.00 refund and for him to keep the book.

I said no thank you, just return the book for a full refund.

He got upset because he would lose out on CGC grading fees

I advanced the dispute to a claim with PayPal so that I could get my book back and to get the hold off my paypal account.  

He sent the book to our p.o. box which we closed out last month but paypal still had that address in their system.

The book was returned  back to him.

I emailed him asking him to resend it back to us with the correct address on both the paypal and eBay site

PayPal refunds him in full

He doesnt respond to 3 emails requesting that he return the book back to us and I would pay for the return shipping

I appealed the case with PayPal.

PayPal states that since he sent the book we lose the appeal

PayPal agrees to send him a letter asking him to resend the book to our correct address.

He doesnt respond

I send him another request through eBay which he doesnt respond to, eBay sends us an email stating the the buyer complained about us harassing him.

I file and IC3 federal fraud claim and contact the Hayward CA DA office reporting the mail fraud incident

I was advised to file a civil action fraud lawsuit which I will next week

I warned the CGC community about this scammer

These are the facts.

I emailed it to him, PayPal sent him a courtesy letter for him to resend.  But he doesn't respond.  He actually reported my email to eBay as harassment for requesting him to send the book back.  Total scammer and knows how to work the system

So you think him keeping the book and the refund is ethical and lawful?  The right thing to do was to resend the book back to me, but he knows the system and is trying to get away with keeping the book and my money

Your request is rather confusing since...

1. Keeping your address up to date is your responsibility.

2. "Bombarding" meaning what exactly?  Are we supposed to write angry letters on your behalf?  Buy his eBay merch and initiate fake returns (which is a crime, with conspiracy thrown on top since "everyone" was requested to join in)? 

I hope you get scammed by this insufficiently_thoughtful_person. I never asked ANYONE to initiate fake returns, that's all on you.  I posted this thread to raise awareness of this scammer.  I've seen other board members who have come across scammers help the victim of the scam in other threads by sending the scammers messages why he did this.  I was hoping that boardies would scare him into changing his ways. And you think the scammer keeping my book and the refund is not a crime? Makes me wonder if you agree with his tactics.  That's all I wanted. 

Wow, I thought this community would help.  Looks like I'm wrong.  Thanks anyway

Hey everyone.  I recently got out of the hospital and started selling to pay off medical bills.  I sold an Eternals 1 on May 1st, the buyer filed a paypal claim for item not as described on July 15th, paypal refunded him, he sent the book to my old address and got the book back.  He now has my book and refund.  PayPal won't do anything about it and he won't return any of,my emails.  I am asking for everyones help in bombarding this fraudster and exposing him so that he doesnt do this to anyone else.  Thank you

So the seller just pm's me and said that I was on his ignore list because he was upset that I sent him a low ball offer on a previous sales thread which he had last month.  He said I was self absorbed because I sent him a follow up PM saying that a courtesy response to my offer would've been nice, since he never responded.  I then deleted my conversation with him since he didn't respond to any of my messages.  He now is trying to change it around and trying to make me look like the bad guy.  That being said, Since the seller doesn't want to sell to me then there's nothing I can do but move on and just do business elsewhere.  I hope that other board members don't upset the seller, since it seems he's very thin skinned with a weak back bone.

There is absolutely no reason why I should be on your ignore list.  I never sold nor purchased anything from you in the past.  Pretty crappy of you to do this to a good standing board member.
