I think I got burned. Please help!

[JJBEE2001]

The only bad experience I've ever had was when Fed-Ex lost a book from Metropolis. It was a Gerber 7, not exactly "easy" to replace. The Fed-Ex rep said to me "just have them ship another one". NICE!

Nice book and nice Marty Nodell cover as well!

Well, they couldn't find it at the post office, so the manager there said they would contact the postman and see where the package is and then call me. I'll report what happens when I find out.

 

Yeah, I should have read the shipping info more clearly. My bad.

 

Thanks for everyone's help, once again!

 

I would keep an eye out for it on eBay.... :-) from eBay user "goin_postal_06"

 

I went to Iraq as a Postal Officer, let me tell you we got packages anywhere from 6 months old to 7 days old from the states. I've learned to have patience with the seller...if it seems I got scammed and the seller plans on never sending the package I always send emails to him hinting that I have his address and I have no problems in making him a little visit (that actually worked once)

You ever think when you go to the post office[the package is empty] and he than has your signature that you accepted it.Than he has cart blanch to make up any story he wants because he sent it?

 

.....Has the empty box thing happened to anybody? What was the outcome?

Happened to me once. I payed by CC and eventually got my money back through the CC Company. Paypal denied me of course.

 

The guy is under criminal investigation for unrelated charges...mug shots and details will be forthcoming I hope.

 

We (all the folks who were scammed) sent all the evidence to ebay, yet they allowed him to continue selling. The lead investigator is aghast at how ebay allows this to go on.
