ebay or paypals problem?

it was the seller lol, made the mistake of e-mailing me saying he'd sent it off, when i got it the date it said sent was the day he e-mailed me T0sser lol!

not just sticking up for the post office but if you haven't received a letter and you ring the company and ask why it hasn't arrived they always blame the post, always check the date stamp like plowsie did these are changed regular every day, this is not always the case sometime the post do loose stuff or its stolen

Could have bought mine for a £10 posted to your door. Try the forsale section before ebay.

Isn't the correct quote:

Kwak, did you manage to check directly in your Paypal then? (for the unclaimed funds thing)

Just didn't see you mention it, and it's a situation where Paypal has your money and not you or the seller - so it looks pretty dodgy from both ends if you don't spot it!

just had an email off the seller-
"We have spoken to our ebay support and the payment confirmation has now come through and we are sending the goods via courier today . they say there was a technical problem that a few people have suffered from . Thanks"

i think he was trying it on and now ive got paypal investigating and they have been in touch with him all of a sudden the funds are transfered, i'll wait until the courier actually delivers it before i call off the paypal dogs.

I got shafted for £200 on fleBay for a graphics card. Know what PayPal's "resolution" procedure got back for me?

£2.24

I'll never use either again.

Not that they care.

thats cr@p they didnt get your cash back? i'd be sending nasty letters.

no worries, i've not personally had problems, but i know people that have ended up hundreds out of pocket because paypal's protection program is full of holes, i don't have an account with them, if a seller wants to sell me something i'm more than happy to pay by CC, BACS or even cheque (have to find my chequebook first though) but i wouldn't use them out of principle...
