How to know when you have been screwed

[stiffler69]

Hi everyone so a few weeks back i purchased some angle eye head lights for my vtr from a member on here (not saying any names cause they may still turn up) its now been two weeks since the guy said he had sent them but still have not received anything so a few emails and he tells me he had posted them last friday so im thinking tuesday wednesday at the latest giving it had been a bank holiday, going into saturday and still nothing do you guys think ive been screwed over.

[bullit]

you walk funny?
message him again

[Martsax]

you walk funny?
message him again
ha ha
Try and get hold if this persosn moby number or house number and phone him

[stiffler69]

no not really, serious posts please although that was pretty funny lol

[saxodan]

ask for the tracking number..

[liamk15]

not get any sort of tracking number?

[stiffler69]

no i have sent him a couple of emails this week with no reply

[jaybiss]

unfortunately not muchanyone can do on here

as people have said ask for the tracking number and take it up with royal mail

[stiffler69]

because of the delay originally im thinking has he even sent them as he already told me had and infact he hadnt and seems not to be replying to emails wich i find to be strange

[Martsax]

phone him god dammit

[Tony_Jay86]

Iam in the exact same situation mate, paid just over 2 weeks ago for an item & i still havent recieved anything.

Its annoying to f**k, when i sell something i aim to send it the same day, if not the the day after without fail.

[jaybiss]

what region is the person from?

[Leo]

Would make much more sense to show the guys name. I mean then if people turn around and say ut oh hes dodgy.. or oh yeh hes fine.. might help the situation

[davew]

sounds like u might have been shafted mate.

stick his name up so it dosent happen to anyone else

[Tony_Jay86]

Aye, i'd like to see if its the same guy who is messing me around.

[Leo]

how did u lads pay> paypal?

[Tony_Jay86]

how did u lads pay> paypal?

Yep i paid by paypal, the item cost me £20, and at the moment, i have to live off £20 a week, so to me its alot.

[Lauraj85]

go through paypal disputes inform them of the problem, if the money is still in his account you can eventually get it back, my other half had the same problem, but paypal investigated & got all his money back!

[Yates]

see if you can find a tracking number if you can, if they are not a premium member maybe mention the name in there and see if anyone else has had problems with that seller

are they an established member? or new?

[Leo]

You can probley get the money back through paypal just contact them and tell them the item aint turned up and the guy wont have any tracking info.

[stiffler69]

part of the money went through paypal and the rest via postal order i will put his name up as soon as i have made sure it hasnt and isnt gonna arrive ill have to give him a few more days to get himself together if not i post the name

[Dan]

Pm me or one of the other mods to see if we have experienced any problems with the member.

[stiffler69]

ok contacted this person twice via pm this morning explained nothing received hes avoided me like i have the plague what do i do next ill give till tomorrow if the lights dont arrive then i will post up the users name

[Barry123]

hope it gets sorted man

I'm still waiting for payment on my things. takes the piss really.

[stevenet15]

this is why we should have seller rep

[Connor_scotland]

Thats bad crack mate

Name and shame him i reckon

hope you get it sorted mate

[S34MER]

i agree with you stiffler, if its not there by tomoz then bang his name up!! at least it stops his conning someone else! good luck mate!

thank you mr sayer

[Gav]

well he has been online today at 17.05 so he has got your pm's m8. i think he is being a wanker.

[Yates]

before everyone rips into him, why not see if he has anything to say first...

[saxodan]

Who is it im dumb

[noxtioN]

Who is it im dumb

"dave_and_gems_saxop"

Two sides to every story, but imo I think you *may* have been shafted :ponder:

[DarylVTR]

ok ok i know when you are on about, and the guy lives in Southampton.

stiffler69 - He seems ok, i talk to him on msn sometimes. Il ask him nxt time hes online for you.

[noxtioN]

the guy lives in Southampton.

LoL, says it all really ;)

J/K! :kiss: :sweetheart:

[DarylVTR]

TBH mate you were screwed with the price anyway!!! £90 ... they are £109 new lol should have just spent the extra £19 ;)

[noxtioN]

Daryl is rite mate, extra 19 Pounds and you would have had them by now, plus they would have been brand new.

[b0t13]

dont rub it in guys, the user may have forgot to send them so hes avoiding you for now until he sends them ?

but it does look bad IMO..

[DarylVTR]

Im sure there will be a reason behind it, no1 should judge untill proven guilty!!!

Personally i wouldnt buy stuff off sax-p too many pricks nicking money and not giving an goods.

[Tony_Jay86]

:shock: A premium member aswell, the guy who has my money is also a premium member.

[b0t13]

not looking good, could be a scam artist..

[lambinator]

perhaps a idea wud be to require sellers to leave thier details (registered address, landline etc) to moderators/ admins so that if such a issue happens the seller can b got in contact with plus gives the buyer more confedence and trust.
this way it just gives a means of people bein contacted etc, such as paypal do!

but just my 2 pennies

[b0t13]

they could fake it, unless u can get the information off paypal..

[stiffler69]

Hi everyone still not arrived cant beleive someone stuck his name up, never mind apparantly the lad is in dubai spoke to his girlfriend on here yesterday and she recons he had sent them out and should be here today or tomorrow but seems like im getting the run around again as then i seen him post yesterday in reply to having some bits in the wanted section ill give him till tomorrow not sure what to do from there really

[sassysax]

if u sent him a postal order surely u have his address??

[Gav]

i think he is taking the piss m8 as he is down very south an you all the way up here he is probably thinking that you will not travel all the way down so i will keep his money and the parts. if you dont get it tomorrow m8 phone the police.

[DarylVTR]

if u sent him a postal order surely u have his address??


Very Very good point!!!! :wink: This young lady is iteligent haha


kick his assss


like i said you could have got them new for £109, and we told u this at the time, i know its abit irrelivant but you choose to ignor me, rosey and a few other members who told you not to ;) :drink:

Problem is when people get the money, they tend not to care once the money is in their pocket so are in no hurry to send goods.

Ahhh well you live and learn.

[Connor_scotland]

well if you have his address just give him a wee visit mate

[sassysax]

Very Very good point!!!! :wink: This young lady is iteligent haha



Why thankyou!! :hug:

[DarylVTR]

lol im interested to know how you won this entertainment award , what did you get upto at trax? ;) LOL

Il send the Portsmouth massive down his way for you mate to nut him 1 LOL

[stiffler69]

lol yeah have his address wich is a good thing just wondering what to do its a long way is portsmouth so maybe a phone call to their local police station maybe in order as i have plenty of evidence that a sale took place even have emails confirming he had received the cash and receipts from paypal and the postal order so just give the fella till in the morning and ill get onto him. Yeah i now realise you can get them cheaper im a bit of a hasty buyer the missus hates it i do it all the time lol

[DarylVTR]

people like you make ebay a good place to sell stuff overpriced which is great though haha.... its cool mate we all do it.

I dont think going to Southampton Police station is going to do much you have no come back even with receipts, there was no legal contract. All you can do it report him to paypal. Like i said i talk to him on msn and he seems decent enough, hopefully there is a reasonable explanation, but it has been ages sinse they were sold, id be pissed off aswell.

[sassysax]

lol im interested to know how you won this entertainment award , what did you get upto at trax? ;) LOL


Well now that wud b telling wudnt it!!

U'l have to get yourself to the christmas event and then you'l probably understand!! lol

:)

[Connor_scotland]

i reckon you go see him or get someone to

But you never know it could be a genuine mistake

[Gav]

ask one of the mods to have a word with him. he has been online so he cant say he has been away as he posted up yesterday.

[furiomike]

how long has it been since they should have been posted?

[Simo]

Stiffler... youve just said the seller is in Dubai, so maybe give him a chance?

The members jumping the gun in this thread promoting violence and the like are out of order. With chat like that do you really expect the person to respond???

And for the record... it took you over 2 weeks to respond to my contact attempts when your TRAX ticket payment got refused. Did you see me hounding you over the forums?

Two sides to every story usually...

[Talon]

simos right plus when you phoned the girlfriend said he was in dubai did he post them before he left? has he forgotten? giving him a couple of extra days wont do much seeing as hes not even in the country! also mate just be aware the post office just brought in new regulations its easy to misinterperet them now packages are meausred on size and weight he may have got it wrong and they will be sent back to his girlfriend, there are many options for not receiving them, my advice is to be patient you bought the item from a private seller so youve never got a guarantee of same day posting. just be patient and wait it out is the best option IMO.

I havent once promoted violence have you even read this thread i refused to name the guy and still have not named him its other users who have worked out who it was and i havent responded in a violent way once, infact i have been more than patient the fact that i have been told they are in the post 3 different times when infact they havent been is what is getting me extremely cautious of the possibility of not receiveing this item i have also stated that i am gonna give it a few more days for them to arrive before i take any action wich i never mentioned violence once.

also re trax tickets i got 1 email from scott wich i responded too explaining the problem i had with my paypal then didnt hear anything else till i got the message from yourself in wich i then told you i had responded to the email didnt receive anything else other than the message from scott and the pm from yourself in wich i replied to both

[stiffler69]

this may help here are the orignal emails

1st email
hi mate i am not at home till monday so i will let u know then and if it is there i will send out the lights on tuesday if that is ok.- Received on the 18th of august

2nd
yes mate sending lights tomorrow- Received on the 21st of august


3rd email
hi mate i sent them on friday sorry for the delay i have had a busy week.-Received on 26th of august so apparantly they were definately sent on the 25th 1 week later nothing

so thats just an example of been patient on my behalf

[Simo]

I havent once promoted violence have you even read this thread

Yes, I have read this thread... did you read my reply?

I said 'the members' with regard to promoting violence, I did not name you. Where a comment was directed at you I specifically stated your name... well... ish. I used stiffler, but Im sure you knew who I was referring to ;)

[stiffler69]

yeah i did realise this after just at first read it looked like it had been directed at me but you must now see that he has lied to me about postage 3 times hence my concerns

[Gav]

dont no about down south but up here in the northeast £90 is about half a mans wages for a week if not more than half so getting stiffed off £90 is a big deal.

[jezpick]

i agree with stiffler, think he's been hard done by!

[stiffler69]

didnt arrive today tried to contact him via pm this afternoon and chose to ignore once again

[rosey]

hmmmm dont look good. maybe a visits in order (nothing violent) just to see if he still got them.

[stiffler69]

probably still on his car thats my best bet asked him for the postage tracking number and i was ignored again so this tells me for certain they havent made it to a post office

[Barry123]

Make contact via another method if possible.

telephone/letter/email etc

give it another week then call the police, dont fuck around

[stiffler69]

https://www.moneyclaim.gov.uk/csmco2/index.jsp this is the next step i think

[D_G_SAXO]

the next step is to wait a few more days as thay were posted friday the 1st by him mum this is gem by the way and were sent 2nd class so will take up to 5 days he hasnt run away with ur money or shafted u he is visting his dad in dubi at the mo he also said it took u a few weeks for u to pay it all so calm urself and stop making out that he is scamming u

[stiffler69]

yes but this was explained i was not able to get in contact with yourselfs to send the rest of the payment looking forward to receiveing the item and im sorry if i jumped the gun a bit but 3 weeks is a bit long to have someone waiting also if i personally knew they were late as it was i would of sent them first class it was the lack of contact wich made me concerned and the 3 different postage dates i was givin as soon as they are received i will state on the thread that the item has arrived

[rosey]

at least they have made contact!!!

[s60tsy]

shut up 'dave_and_gems_saxo' why should he not make out that he has been shafted when you have obviously taken the piss? All it would have taken was an honest email - how hard would that have been. You obviously can't be trusted not to be scammers after the lies you have told so i think you should be apologising and not gobbing off - sarah

[Simo]

Why do people automatically think the worst... and why does almost everyone feel the need to jump on the band wagon and hound the seller?

Does nobody in life have any patience anymore? Have you ever promised to do something, but something else has cropped up which has meant there is absolutely no way you could do what you originally promised to do?

[Qucifer666]

in all fairness, i think stiffler69 has shown the most patcience.

[Simo]

Well, if they were posted on the 1st, 2nd class they should arrive today or tomorrow.

In either case, posting publically like this is not the best form of action and creates ill feeling amongst the community.

If there is a genuine problem with something or someone then I will try to help to resolve the matter, but I dont appreciate masses of people bringing negative feelings to this forum.

[Mattvtr]

i think when people are sending items on here they should have to take a photo of the receipt of postage and pop the pics on here showing the post code of the recipient,just a suggestion,its what im gonna do once ive sent my items,dont cost nothing extra for the receipt

[saxodan]

I think we should alll shift the blame to royal mail

[Clouds_mate]

Iv had a few problems like this before. One from this site too.

I sent a £300 headunit to a guy with record del. He never got back to me so i called him to make sure everything was ok been the nice guy i am ;)

He said tht it wouldnt load cds. Was in perfect condition when i sent it. He said it may of been damaged in the post. I told him to clame via royal mail and whatever price he gets back he can keep. He bought it for 100 so if he made a profit i wasnt bothered. I told him to call me back on the monday after he had spoken to royal mail.

That was about 5 weeks ago and still had no call. I smell somthing dodgy.

[Talon]

I think we should alll shift the blame to royal mail
Amen, i hate royal mail

[stiffler69]

Just to let everyone know the item arrived today in good condition and packaged well thanks for the comments and support maybe i was bit hasty but i still think once payment is received the item should be posted the same week this is how i would do things

[D_G_SAXO]

glad to here thay have arrived and i am sorry for the delay and for any incovience i have caused

[DarylVTR]

awww everybody wins


A happy ending to a tragic story


:sweetheart: :sweetheart: :heart:
