I am also, but I do not think it is any fun. My check has been cashed since 9/06/2006, yet I do not have the items I paid for. Then I get excuse after excuse, "it slipped my mind; I had personal problems; blah blah blah", and I understand things happen, but if I did not email the person, since it slipped her mind, would she have taken my money and never shipped my items? Also, it takes minutes to email someone, and she has my cell, so I do not understand the problem. And this person lives in the same state I do. I think I have been ripped off and reported this to eBay.
I do not like to leave negative feedback, but if my items do not arrive by tonight, I am going to leave negative feedback.

Had a 2 month ongoing war about a year ago. I bought parts for hubby's 67 vette. Seller had more parts for sale than we bought. I paid for parts...Seller shipped the wrong parts. When I tried to email him, my emails came back...seller would not receive email from me. The guy who bought the parts I received contacted me, he too had the same problem. We both reported the problem and seller to eBay. Three weeks after we both paid the seller we get an email from the seller...He told us that it was "just a mistake, and that we should have given him a brake". Yeah right! He promised to send us both shipping labels to send the parts to each other. Another 2 weeks go by...then I receive a shipping label to ship to myself. Duh! The other buyer gets a label to ship to other buyer (she bought chevelle parts). After 8 weeks...both the other buyer and I had spoken via cell phones more than 15 times...we both paying to ship the parts to each other. The worst thing was that besides the 2 months to get the right parts....the seller first left "nice" feed back, then posted some really "rotten" stuff about me....It was bad enough that eBay removed it....and he's been kicked off of eBay.....Hope you have patience. The parts I finally received were a great price and excellent condition....it was just a nasty experience.

Yes and the guy was a total weird-o (item arrived in a reused envelope wrapped in toilet paper). I copied his bizarre stories about why the item was/wasn't as depicted, his crazy contradictions and then his threats and sent the pages to EBay...he flipped out when they contacted him (sadly they gave him my home phone number and he threatened me, gave me the only pause in the situation). They gave me all my money back and I laughed with clients about it for weeks. He's still selling (jewelry, "Prince" something), shows eBay's standards.."if it makes money, it's OK".....for a while there I didn't hear from e-bay or Pay-Pal....then they came through and boy was he mad....told me to never order from him again heh, heh. I closed that e-mail address so he couldn't continue mailing me...he became boring after a while.

Yes. I paid with money order they cashed, no merchandise, but how to prove? I don't but much at all on ebay anymore. Did you ever try to access a real person with a dispute at ebay? There's no customer service at all. I've lost $60 on two separate transactions.

No, I'm a good customer. There was only one time that I couldn't pay when I said I would, and that's because their pay site didn't work over here...so I had to send them a money order.

I have had war of words with a customer. The best thing to do is kill them with kindness. It softened my customer in a hurry and still received positive feedback.
