PLEASE HELP WHAT DO I DO NOW,

HI again, if you read the last message of my last post about " think buyer is going to scamm me"  they are back, as you know 3 blocked people tried to rebuy shorts now someone new has brought and paid, you guessed it, so many bad feedback and feedback left for others, and i googled last buyers address and new buyer and they live 4 mins away from each other, omg what do i do, if i send im sure they are going to do me over, either send back empty box, destroy them or what other seller said get my money somehow, do i ring paypal to put in my concerns before i send or just not send as ebay said" please trust your instincts", I feel like crying,they are doing my head in, need experienced advice, ps, i know paypal is meant to be safe if i send registered but i know bad feedback is to come again and trouble, she has left numerouse bad fb to good people by what they are answering back, thanks for listening

Give ebay a call in the morning, a buyer is not allowed to use another ID in order to circumvent your buyer blocks and they should cancel the sale at their end (from past experience....).

 

There is obviously a pattern here, perhaps contact some of the other sellers to see if this fruitloop has attemted to extort or defraud them in some way as well, it may be a case where the police should be involved.

 

Oh and ask them to remove that blatantly false neg as well while you are on the phone to them.

Hi, I'm assuming you have this block in place? (for all future sales)

 

"Have a feedback score of 5 or lower and haven't gone through phone verification"

 

A lot of brand new members don't bother with phone verification, which makes it easy to start an account and waste seller's time (my opinion only). I lot of my stresses diminished when I added this block because most of the time they are planning to pay using someone else's PayPal account, and don't have that linked either.

 

I can understand why you do not wish to post the shorts. Maybe some more experienced members can shed some light on how you should proceed.

 

I have closed my store temporarily before to wait for nuisance buyers to move on. But eBay is not my main focus (I do markets etc.), and I do not depend upon it for income (so this is not an option for everyone).

Once you've spoken with ebay in the morning, they will probably resolve the issue and cancel the transaction, but that's only going to help you in the short term, as I expect they'll keep trying.

Also, I note that although ebay have removed the negative comment, the actual neg still remains, so I'd be asking why that's the case when it should have been removed completely.

For future reference, only ever send the item to the address specified on the Paypal notification, and for expensive items, send with SOD required, and pay for extra cover if the item is valued in excess of $100. Also, clearly mark your package with your return address so that if the recipient's address is incorrect, your item will be returned to you within a few weeks.

hi again, rang ebay, cannot help as first name is different, they say could be another honest sister, they are investigating it but could take days so told me to cancell item and when i get bad feedback again ring them, lol, rang paypal said ok to send but to the name and address they said, even tho 4 min from original buyer under diiferent name but paid for by same family name on blocked list, ebay are looking at the negative feedback to see if they can take it off, i am going to refund buyer, tell them the only way to get shorts is into my bank account, its the only way to give them what they want , get rid of them hopefully but know i am safe with money,then im not selling again for a year, i know its not ebays fault but with all the negatives, different user ids ,abusive emails, different names and paypal accounts im dumb founded that they are still there and doing this to numerous honest people. o well here comes another negative feedback for me, thank-you everyone, i am so glad i found this forum, you have all been amazing,wish me luck,  cheers

They must surely be someone who knows who you are or knows your daughter. It seems a bit personal to me.
