All jokes aside Ottobord, you have over 5,000 good transactions, so online commerce is not new to you. Why are you acting this way here, at a place that allows you to sell to awesome collectors for free? We all make mistakes, just try your best to do what is right to fix it and that's all anyone would ask.

[comix4fun]

Who are you guys kidding you'll all buy from someone if the deal is good.

[aszumilo]

Harvey,

 

Someone who thought they did nothing wrong wouldn't offer you resolution for the comics your complaining about.

 

 

Since you are offering a resolution, as low ball as it may be, does that mean you are admitting you did something wrong?

[cloud cloddie]

Harvey,

 

Someone who thought they did nothing wrong wouldn't offer you resolution for the comics your complaining about.

 

 

I offer free return shipping on all my ebay auctions, regardless of the reason.

 

This thread chain has been hysterical. Thanks for that.

And thank you Harvey for giving me two more names to add to my block list. (thumbs u

[BlowUpTheMoon]

Buyers need not be concerned, I seek advice from the forum all the time about condition.

[slym2none]

I also have two years of problem free transactions here.

 

That in no way negates the fact that you now have a problem here.

 

 

 

-slym

[slym2none]

Take advice from us stupid people.

 

The more you drag this out... the more those ebay accounts will be passed around... and the more you will be singled out as a problem seller.

 

Act swiftly ... and you can walk away unscathed and just try harder next time

I've already blocked this person on my eBay account. I'd bet I am not the only one, either.

I'm done

 

So, when you "fail," and people give you good advice on how to correct your mistake, you run?

 

Bye.

If I can interrupt the unabashed ball washing of HarveySwick for just one second, I think you guys are glossing over some very serious red flags.

 

1) Harvey used his power as commissioner to acquire players in his fantasy football league in the shadiest way possible.

2) he's a lawyer, and lawyers have no soul.

3) like all lawyers, he has a drinking problem. Always going on about "passing the bar". Get help Harvey, please.

4) he's from boston, and they just had a record amount of snowfall in Boston. Coincidence?

5) one of the sellers 2 ebay accts (nothing shady there) is a reference to the 98 yankees, the greatest team of all time. And Yankee fans are above reproach.

6) he talks on the phone while driving.

 

I think ottobord should continue to fight the good fight, and not allow himself to get steam rolled by the obvious favoritism being displayed by the board.

Swick ball washing is a serious crime in itself.

I never agreed to a $5 refund. He told me to call him. I did when I was driving home. When I got home he threw out - "I'll give you $5 towards shipping. That's it. Then end. Take it. Take it."

 

I said I had to go and would write him more later.

 

I've also posted my first response to him in this thread. I explained to him a short while ago that I was initially trying to be polite. I did mention the condition by explaining I thought the books would have been bagged and boarded in my initial response to him.

 

I did initially offer a partial refund just because I was trying to avoid a headache. He said no - ship them back and that he wasn't paying for shipping.

 

There's clearly something that is missing with him.

 

I filed a PayPal claim. I'll package up the books well and wait for his response via the PayPal claim. Then I'll ship the books back to him. If he doesn't refund my shipping, I will nominate him for the Probation List and add his eBay accounts to the eBay Blocked User thread. This argument with him is just going in circles. He clearly thinks he did nothing wrong.

 

I want to nominate HarveySwick for the PL for talking on the phone while driving

Maybe that's why traffic is always awful with an average speed of 7mph.

We all make mistakes, just try your best to do what is right to fix it and that's all anyone would ask.

 

I don't presume any special knowledge of the seller in this case, but I sometimes wonder if it is a matter of the dulling effect of doing business in an automated and largely anonymous online environment. The internet has never been good for interpersonal skills, and if a given seller has only known business online the level of "customer service" awareness may be very low.

 

So a seller who is otherwise an honest dealer still ends up with a narrow vision of every transaction. They are used to point click buys followed by point click shipping followed by point click feedback. That is great until something goes terribly wrong, but then there is no experience of face to face customer service to fall back on.

 

If you have never had the experience in real time of standing in front of an unhappy customer wanting you to fix something, online commerce is not going to get you that experience. The very vocabulary of real time customer service may not exist for that seller.
