I put my cell phone on Ebay, and some guy from toronto opted for the Buy It Now price. He wants me to go ahead and send out the phone before I get the cash.

": hello seller, I got ur mail but due to the urgent need of this item I will be very grateful if u can help me ship it out.I want to send to my mother in law who is doing her birthday in 4 days time and b4 u get ur MO it will be in 7-10days and I dont want to dissapoint her,Pls help me and have trust in me.I will be willing to hear from u soon. will be sending the label u will print and attach to the package with INVOICE so the item can be picked up tommorrow by 1pm."

yeah right! like i'm going to trust someone from across the border with a 0 feedback rating. i am guessing this guy will end up not paying at all.

nathan_f

what's his feedback like?

stevecore

big ol' zero

riosluts

he already stated that his feedback was 0. Yeah dont do it, especially without any feedback. Tell the guy that you refuse and will give him bad feedback if he doesnt

goBigtime

The buyer is obligated to the seller to pay for the merchandise the he bid on.




Fuck that scammer Steve.....

Mess with him a little & tell him:


"Happy B day to ur mom inlaw.. but u r just unknown person to me on the internet... can u pls take pic of ur mother in law birth certficate or id ? and pls a picture of your wife id too so I can see how much they do look alike......and b4 u thnk "WTF?", pls real eyes my request to ur is no more unreasonable then ur is."

sickkittens

I used to get that every so often when I sold on eBay.

That was just one of the many funny things I had to deal with.

ive been ripped off by canadians before so i can understand your fustration.

brizzad

his grammar and spelling skills are so awesome, how can you not take him up on that offer

Slick

Can't he send you a Pay Pal or use http://www.bidpay.com ??

What I don't get is that if he lives in Toronto and needs it bad enough, why not just go out and buy it, then again, I'm sure that he got a pretty good deal with it from you.

stevecore

its a japanese imported phone with all the bluetooth accessories to go along with it. I knocked some off the price cause i used it for a few weeks but yeah... it's a very fair deal on it.

Spunky

We don't need your cheap ass shit anyways prick
Put that on your site as well (ezacash.com) because I sure as hell wouldn't promote it.

Sounds like a Russian using a Canadian mailing address to scam.

Shok

I got bit on a scam like this on Ebay last year.
A guy used the buy it now to grab a $4,000 Movado watch. He said it had to be sent overnight or no deal because it was for a bday present.

He sent the funds through Paypal, so I sent the watch. Well I guess Paypal can't figure out if they used a stolen credit card within 24hrs. and thats exactly what happened.

I finally got my money back like 3 months later but it took a lot of fighting with Paypal.

Now I never ship anything sold until 48 hrs later or more.

stevecore

my thoughts exactly... when he mentioned western union that was the final straw. had to go with my gut and cancel his bid.

synergysex

What an idiot. I would give him negative feedback just for asking such a dumb question and either re-list it or make a second chance offer to another bidder if there were any.

Thats what makes eBay a real shithole to sell in anymore. Everything is just a real pain in the ass anymore, espically because there are a few bad sellers that can pretty much do whatever they want because they are power-fucking-sellers.

Not to mention all the crap you have to through just to get your listing fees back when a buyer fucks you over. "But I dont want to try and fucking work it out for 10 days, I want to be done with the son of a bitch."

Then there is the group of idiots that simply cant read. I say in my auction lists countless times NO PAYPAL but I still get people that want my PayPal address. Its really fucking obvious to the people who read even a little bit of the auction discription. (See an example: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=366088495 3)

Then there is the bunch that cant send thier payments within 10 days and the excuse is always the same... thier e-mail has been down. If you had a 10 day e-mail outage, its time for a new ISP after like the 3rd day, dont you think? The fact of the matter is these people are simply too stupid to use e-mail or they bought something they cant afford or dont want.

this is supposedly the reason why paypal randomly locks peoples accounts and steals all their money, to make up for the huge fraud they have to cover for.

Shit right then I'd cancel the transaction and put that puppy back up for sale and eat the ebay costs and negative if he chooses to leave one.

definitely dont trust people whether they have 0 feedback or 1000 feedback. make sure theyre feedback is recent.

Wilber

Doesn't strike you odd that your selling a cell phone and he calls it
"need of this item"

He is obviously spamming that message across ebay.

^as Fh said we wholesale on ebay
usually we dont have any trouble - but just this weekend we got some smart ass guy with a big old zero rating trying to get me to ship out the goods before he paid.

Turns out he is actually just ONE suburb away - so I told him:
"well how about I send my husband to you to deliver the goods"

he wired the money right away.



just make a complaint to sqauretrade and leave him negative if needs be.

you know you can cancel ppls bids whilst the auction is runnign if they have zero feedback - sometimes helps

whenever i see a 'zero' bidding on one of our auctions i cross my fingers someone with 800+ will come and outbid them


last week someone bid on our auction they were -1 - ive never seen that b4 LOL
