I Hate Paypal

[Nash]

So I bought a an ECU from a guy in Iowa using paypal, and he never shipped it. So I filed a complaint with with paypal. The guy then ships me a CAS and a Car and Driver Magazine. Now I can't get my money back because he shipped me something. Fuck Paypal!

[Jakey]

Where is the guy located at in Iowa???

id drive down there. i bought an egt from a guy in FL. he still hasnt shipped it yet but i paid the extrx $5 for the buyer protection. i guess the buyer protection doesnt mean shit. there has to be something you can do. im sure paypal would have thought of people doing this and made a way to fix it.

paypal sucks ass... I sold a bunch of parts on ebay and these people say they didnt get them, but when you look @ thier feedback, they tell that to all the sellers they get. GRR. I shipped it via USPS FCM, so paypal ended up taking money from my bank account and refunding it.

Not to mention the horrendous fee's I pay for having a business account or the 300 dollar ebay account i have righ tnow fuck.

Haha paypal DOES suck, and theres NOT much you can do, it sucks doesn it?

yeah i sold a bunch of parts and then people that payed at the end of auction didnt wait for a shiiping price, they just sent me the price of the auction, i said i was waiting for them to send payment for shipping and they all bitch and close my account, then someguy says i sent him something that wasnt as described, even tho it was exactly as pictured, then he contacts paypal. Then a week later he realiezes that i was the wrong seller and he had complained about the wrong seller, my accounts are closed suspended and half these people got there money back and have their parts. its only works if your honest


:bs: :headache: :fworld: :rant: :bs:

It's already gone. I was actually trying to pick it up for Nash that same night but someone bought it right away.

There has to be some sort of way to get your $$$ back from pay pal.

i will be going to the junk yard today. and im sure i will find a few ecu's and get them. i will find out if they have EPROM when i get home and post up what i found and sell them cheap. anyone need anything else???

Non Cruise Controll Throttle cables for a 1G. ANd a NT ECU for a 92 NT woudl be fucking AWEsoME if we can get one.

Andy, complain to your credit card company...PayPal is notorious for getting out of responsibility, but credit card companies will do whatever is needed. Ship that stuff back to the dude with delivery confirmation and just say he never refunded your money.

[Nash]

I didn't use a credit card to buy it. I just had the money taken out of my checking account.

He lives in Sioux City.


A road trip might be in the near future.

You did leave him negative feedbac, right? He also breeched contract so you can use Ebay as well. He did not ship what he posted. Maybe he got you mixed up with someone else that bought something from him.

I definately think a roadtrip is in order if this doesn't get resolved in a satifactory manner. I'll bring the beer.

[Jakey]

I'm sure that a few of us from Ames would love to roadtrip up to Sioux City. We're only about 2.5 hours from Sioux City so it would make a nice roadtrip.... :bounce:

I bought $200 injectors off of dsmtrader using paypal and my cc. the guy never shipped me the product, he kept strining me along with false tracking numbers and all that shit.

I filed a complaint through paypal, they said he hand no money in his account so they couldn't get my money back.

Fast forward 5 months later, my credit card shows a credit of $176.00 from paypal with the guys username listed. Paypal never contacted me or said they were able to get most of the money, it just showed up on my credit card. Guess I'm lucky. :/

I think buying shit off of EBay and the DSMScammer from unknown people is the problem...

file a report too

i don't know if it will do any good but i think they will atleast keep it on record and if that guy gets enough complaints they take action.

I heard of

squaretrade.com

but i think u have to pay them to use there service, i dunno i never really looked over there site to much.



speaking of not getting parts too, were are mine?

Its been a month and u havn't even got back to me wiht that list yet, i'm still waiting for that.

I didn't get it off of ebay. It was from a guy on DSMTrader.

I always make sure they're on at least a few dsm boards or are known by a few others from their state by going to their local dsm groups.
