What would you do

[joeypost]

Say you BIN a book off of someone on ebay. Pay the next day and after waiting 2 weeks you email the seller to ask whats up. When will the book arrive?

 

His reply is they cannot find it in their system (supposedly mailed out already). Within 5 minutes of their reply they refund the full purchase price and shipping.

 

Personally i don't believe them and think they may have moved the book to someone else. Do I neg them or just let it go?

 

p.s. I really needed/wanted the book.

NEG THEM

Tell them if they don't find it, they get negged. Maybe they will magically "find" it somehow (give them a deadline too). Otherwise, neg 'em!

Neg 'em

 

nothing they can do about it

[kenglo]

Let it go.

I won an auction and the guy said he mailed it out a day or 2 later about 2 days after that I get a refund saying it was lost in the mail

What would we do without "What would you do?" threads

The real question is, is what is there current feedback rating? If it is full of neg's there is your answer. If not, there are a few honest people left in the world...

You got your money back. Remember the seller and don't buy from them anymore.

He is blaming UPS. I just emailed him and said I would deal with the headache of running the book down. Lets see if I get a tracking #.

 

Book was listed on his site for almost a year. Now it disappears.

fixed that for ya (thumbs u

[moonlite]

he probably sold it and forgot to take it off, just leave a neutral with explanation. you got your money back quickly and no foul to you except in your mind.

True dat! (thumbs u

[the blob]

having not been able to find things I have listed in my store and having promptly refunded the money I'd hope not to be negged, but it doesn't sound like this is the scenario here, blaming it on USPS

[Mac Man]

Yeah, crappy as it is, you did get your money back. I'm falling in the Neutral camp, but with that, include a detailed comment and adjust his ratings appropriately.

 

Sorry you weren't able to fill that hole in the wishlist JP

If it was on his site for a year there is a good chance it was accidentally sold or shipped. I would cut my losses (which are none at this point since he refunded your money) and forget about it. Maybe write a little sticky note saying, "Don't buy from XYZ", and put it on my monitor.

 

Life's too short to get bent about stuff like this.

If he would have said...Ooops, i sold it earlier. I would have had no problem with that. I am leaving well enough alone and will block them as a buyer and will no longer consider them as an option when I buy books.
