yeah I saw that his feedback's going down, once I have this kind of problem with a seller NJ something, and it was because at that time he left to attend Joe Con and his Ebay store got taken care by some of his nephew or somebody, which forgot to ship things and so came down all the neg feedback. I got the full refund though..

Paypal quite fast about it, so if there's no reply from phattertoys about the dispute, then you'll get your money in full refund sooner Delta 6... well it sucks if we won in a good score and it short of never happened because problem like this, but hey maybe its not our really luck at that time..

I would avoid dealing with seller:

sar770_0

They are selling a gold head SDCC PDD with code date 81921. The seller got VERY defensive when I asked questions about it.

Their response:

ok really, that makes no sense. what idiot bootlegger would put the wrong date on it !!!
well i will get to the bottom of this i have a friend that works for hasbro !!! i will find out the truth !!! most of my collectibles come from him including this one he mailed me in 2007 !!!!
so i dout this is a bootleg !!!! you have to much time on your hands my man!!!!

Anyone ever dealt with this guy, the.toy.filter, on ebay?

He won an auction I had for a lot of o'ring Joes and now he doesnt want to pay for them. I guess he sells a lot of Joes on his ebay and generally has really good feedback but something seems off. I sent him a message the day before payment was due to remind him that it was due the next day, and if he failed to make payment I would have to do the second chance offer to the next highest bidder. The guy got all huffy and sent me a message back saying he was aware of when payment was due and that I was threatening him to pay. Well payment was due yesterday and he didn't pay so just a warning about that guy if he bids on your auctions.

**UPDATE**
The deal was all taken care of.

Having a bad time with a seller named Mastertoylist

He had about 30 of 7800 total negative in the last 12 months, so I thought it was safe. It was an international order, California, US to NSW, Australia. It was 'sent' on the 23rd of March, it is the 12 of April and I have yet to receive it. I have called Australia Post twice, who have said it is not in Australia, It has not left the US, The Tracking Expired, it should have been here around the 7th of April and he has to contact USPS to find out where it is.

Fair enough, I questioned when it was sent, I was now told the 24th, ok, maybe he said sent before the sent it the next day. Next, he is quite slow to reply, fine, when I have sent 2 emails, he got back to me, and apologized for being slow to reply. Fine, still has my benefit of the doubt.

When I asked him to contact USPS, as AUSPost told me to, I basically got told 'I don't know how, doubt I'd find anything anyway, you should get it', ie: I can't pick up a damn phone, I can't be bothered, stop bothering me. I had to literally explain how to call USPS, give them his information and the parcels, and what to ask. Guess what, after I told him how, last week, I never got a reply.

I am still giving him the benefit of doubt, it's US Sunday, and about 5PM there, I sent it on the US Friday. It's about 10AM here. I expect atleast a reply tomorrow morning(AUS time), or I am opening a dispute. I am quite fed up. I'd really rather my figures than my money back.

Saying all this, checking his negative feedback, all 27 of them seem to be 'Never got it', as I can't ask people whether they did or not, and there is no followup, I can only assume they never did. First negitive experience I've had with eBay, ever, and I've been buying since 07ish.

Forgot to mention, I have always been very polite and courteous in my emails. I am being more than patient.

i bought a pre-order tony gwynn macfarlane from "dreamjoey."

there was a delay with the product. he offered a refund. i gave him my paypal info.

i was always nice. he said he was in the hospital. never gave me a refund and never responds to any of my messages anymore.

but it look slike hes still actively selling.

because it was a preorder and i waited too long i cant even file a grievance. i didnt notice it was a preorder. i never do those just for that reason.

i was soo excited to find a tony gwynn macfarlane.

[DOC]

m_mhill Put him in your Block bidder list and you'll be able to avoid this headache

AVOID HIM! Refunded his money never got my item back...(my fault)... And on top of that he was nice enough to leave me Negative feedback. So, If you want a super fun time selling let m_mhill bid on your shiz

I really wish you were a tanker....(please be a tanker)

cenagijoe emailed me on eBay and asked if I shipped to China, I replied saying yes I do (I ship worldwide) so after a bit of negotiating a price on ebay as he stated he wanted them but couldnt afford the price for both so I dropped it a bit he went ahead and made the offers in which I accepted and brought two figures from me, after he brought them he sent me this link with this Chinese address...

thank you very much.

I reply saying "sorry it has to go to the address on paypal as per paypals policy, please let me know how you want to proceed?"

10 days go by with out a reply then I get this message

did you receive my messages? I post 3 times,and I really want to know where you ship .thanks.

I never had any other messages so I dont know what he is on about.

So I sent "Hi no I have still not sent these figures, as I was awaiting for you to okay it to go to the American address on paypal."

Then I gave it another few days and just shipped it out to the address listed on Paypal fully covered with tracking and enhanced compensation to cover the whole amount.

Then on the 5th of April I get this message

Hi, I have not receive the package, and I can not track the package , if you can track it and get some infomations? and when did you ship it out? thanks.

I replied with the tracking details

and on the 10th of April I get this message

Hi, I check the tracking num you gave me ,and it said send with a american mailing system. did you mail it to US? I gave you a CHINESE address. and can you check the item again .and tell the shipping address you mailed. thanks.


and then on the 14th of April I get this message...

Hi, my friend received the package ,and checked the tracking number on package and you gave me , that is the same, and you mailed me a empty box, it sealed well and my friend cut it with knife, but nothing in it , and I rember I gave you the CHINA address and asked you mail to CHINA, and you promised, and I refer 2-3 times after, but finally, you shipped to US and Not contact with me . and this item ended is Mar 7, and you said I can get in Mar 30th, but you mailed it in March 30th, I donn't know what happen in those days. so when my friend told me you ship a empty package, I feel it more like a trick, so I wait you give me a reasonable explanation, and I hope you forget put them in the package . Today is a bad day. reply soon . thanks. I will upload the pics of your package soon.

and that is when he opens a paypal dispute.

This is my reply

"Hi I can assure you 100% the figures where in the box when they was sent, I will e-mail the receipt which shows the weight of the packet was not empty, this is an official receipt from the post office. I have phoned the royal mail and they have said I can put in a claim as I have the proof of postage and I also paid for advanced compensation to cover the packet at £110 this cost me extra why would I of bothered doing this if I was just going to send an empty box? They also asked me to ask you to ask your friend if the box looked tampered with i.e different colour cello tape I used only brown parcel tape or if there was any sign of it being opened and then re-sealed? If you would like me to put a claim in on your behalf I would kindly ask you to close all the disputes against me, as I have done nothing wrong and just followed paypal's policy. lmk either way Daniel."

The buyer is still adamant I sent him an empty box and does not want to take my help, I personally believe the buyer had no intention of wanting to pay for these figures, if I had sent them to the Chinese address I reckon he would of said he hadn't got them but as I sent them to the American address with full tracking and in which some one had to sign for them he has started saying the box was empty.

here is a link to the proof of postage which clearly shows the tracking, the weight of the packet and the enhanced compensation...

[CG76]

The guy sounds like a fraud. I think if you have excellent eBay feedback, plus you kept the ebay messages, saying he at first wanted to ship to a different unconfirmed address, and have proof of tracking, Paypal/eBay will decide the case in your favor.

I recommending contacting Paypal and ask them how you can submit to Paypal the messages that you received from and sent to the buyer, as well as the tracking number/receipts.

This is clearly one of those examples where this is 100% your fault. We are commonly a victim of our own devices. You had all the information available to you (wrong address, pushy buyer, internatianal) yet you still went ahead with the sale. I have had that happen before. You know what I have done? Cancelled the transaction, blocked the bidder and moved on. You did not do this and this is the result.

Hope it works out and you learned a valuable lesson. There is an advantage to listening to that little voice in our heads that tell us when something is a bad idea. Because it usually is.

Its easy to say that, but that would of still ended up being a neg for me, at least this way I dont lose anything okay I still ended with a neg but if paypal closes it in his favour I claim through royal mail and even if they close it in my favour I can still claim as if he is being legit then they was stolen along route and I can claim and get him his money back
