Re: [MV] ebay....more tricks. pay-pal

Hi Everette

Yah, Paypal has got pretty bad recently. They have changed their user
agreements twice in the last 6 months that I can remember. They are always
freezing peoples money over crazy claims. They are the biggest of the money
services so most people like to use them, but I have dropped them after a
few years of taking Paypal. I have not been burned yet but know of people
that have. I am not taking the chance. Now I am content to just wait for
the check or if the person wants to pay by credit card I use BidPay now.
Less heartburn. Bye Bye Paypal.

Glenn

I paid for a MV item with Pay-pal, my account was charged, I did not get
merchandise, wrote seller, he said when I paid he would ship, I told him I
had sent money via Pay-pal. After some digging on my part seems that
Pay-pal has some sort of disagreement with seller and until it is settled
Pay-pal will not release funds to him... Took some months to resolve
this -- It was resolved by the seller refunding me the money after Pay-pal
gave it to him, for he had sold the item at a flea market.

At least seller was honest in his dealings with me - much more than can be
said for Ebay and there alter ego Pay-pal

MV related.

I bought a part for my MV through ebay. Used PayPal to pay the buyer. The
package showed up empty. I do not know whether the seller tried to screw me
or the contents was lost by the PO. Regardless the seller will not do
anything and the Post Office says they are not responsible for the sellers
mispackaging of the product. (No contents were damaged as there were no
contents)
