For those that have missed the other thread...

I popped the BIN on this "NM+" auction. Link

Sent the guy the money instantly through Paypal.

He waits a month to send the book because of email problems, car accident, *insert common excuse here*.

I finally get this book in the mail. Front Back

I send the guy an email and tell him the book is not NM+ and want a refund.

Guy tells me tough [!@#%^&^].

 

I file fraud through Paypal.

Paypal tells me I can't get my money back through them because I didn't pay for buyer protection. (I'll be damned if I can find the option for it when buying through eBay.)

I though you were ALWAYS buyer protected when buying through eBay.

Anyway...Paypal tells me to file through eBay.

I'm in the middle of an eBay case now. No results yet.

 

ANYWAY!

I see the guy has put up more auctions that are very similar to mine.

I figure...why not try to prevent this from happening to another honest person.

I neg him. Link

I'm the red one at the top.

LOOK AT HIS REPLY! 893frustrated.gif

Dude...you can call me a lot of things...but a LIAR?

That went over me like a tonofbricks.gif

Yes...It's official...he has pissed me off. sumo.gif

 

Anyway. If you were looking at this guy's auctions...you were warned.

I'm so ticked at his reply, I'll be filing Mail Fraud charges on him now. devil.gif

 

Am I being childish here?

Should I get a refund on this POS book?

I'm going to give a follow up to his reply. But I only get 80 characters and I want to make it good. devil.gif

How about this:

 

"Use the money you stole from me to buy a scanner, you fraud!!!"

Oh yes he did girlfriend.

 

Maybe you should send a complaint about PP to someone in your state government and tell them you believe they have deceptive business practices, and maybe they will get some more fines.

For what it's worth, I sent him an email thru letting him know that I didn't feel you were a liar and CGC community knows it.

 

Him being the kind of guy he is, probably couldn't care less. frown.gif

One thing you might want to do is waste a few bucks and auction that book off on EBay, with large scans, and then make note of it in the Follow-Up and in your auction text.

 

Good idea, but I can't until the eBay fraud case has been closed.

One form of retaliation to warn other buyers would be for you to add a "follow-up" comment in your feedback to him where you provide the link to your scan of the POS in question... thumbsup2.gif

 

Kinda like this.... " View POS book here http://members.cox.net/revncaer/_pics/wwbnf.jpg "... 893scratchchin-thumb.gif

 

It's against eBay rules to post a URL in the feedback.

If I do that, he could get the entire feedback removed.

 

I wish it was that easy.

You gotta practice what you forum members preach. Remember "Big Clear Scans", "If its too god to be true,it probably isnt".

On the bright side at least you got a book, granted not in the graded description he had.

 

Try dropping $300 on a Surfer #1, and a week later Ebay ban the seller for being a fraud. Ouch that one still hurts, mad.gif, no book, no money just BS from Ebay, but thats another story.....

Ah the infamous NM+ with color breaking spine creases, the rest of the front cover looks pretty good though Dice, maybe you wanna throw it up on Ebay as a solid F/VF ? Something that I thought I'd throw out there, based on this thread. If a seller uses the nomenclature, are they therefore accountable for it?? I mean I have taken books with a grain of salt when a seller says excellent condition, or very nice shape. But he used the term NM+ does that not make him culpable in everyones minds.............

Look at the right side of the book in the red area.

It is tissue paper thin because of wear.

Those white spots are actually the first page showing through the cover.

 

The insides of the cover are BROWN!

 

I am being very kind to this book by calling it Fine.
