Purchasing etiquette

[Ski-Laxn]

When buying something from somebody and you have paid by paypal how much time should you give them to ship? I have PM'd this person and have emailed and he will not respond. It has been 13 days since I paid Him would just like my money back now instead of the item. I have only had to bad issues on here and I buy alot but will only pay by paypal to protect me. Have filed a complaint thru Paypal and he won't respond to that either. If you don't want everybody to know who you are you might want to respond.
Thanks

SITUATION HAS BEEN RESOLVED

 

[Ski-Laxn]

Need some help here

 

[turbolover]

more than plenty

13 days should be reporting time cough it up who is the buggah

 

[FattyMatty]

13 days is way more than enough time....

 

[adrenaline junkey]

13 days is way more than enough time. In most cases i expect it to be shipped within 2 or 3 days of payment unless contact has been made telling me why it wont be

 

[snow_knight]

Anything over 7 days.. I'm doing everything in my power to get ahold of this person for shipment or money back.. since its been 13 days.. its time to take aggresive actions

 

[Summertime Blues]

13 days is too long

 

[Ski-Laxn]

Have tried getting ahold of this guy on here and by email. He has even posted 11 times on the new forum. NO CONTACT. Will see what happens on tuesday if nothing I will put his name out.

Is it a cross border ship ? , that could hold things up a bit . May be its been shipped but he just hasnt told you yet . Just trying to be optimistic here.

7-10 days is normal time from anywhere in the US. If you didnt have product within 14 days I would be contacting somebody.

On a happier note, ski-laxn hooked me up with a buddy of his who was selling his 07 xrs. My only complaint, no fault of anyone, is due to lack of snow I haven't even been able to ride it yet. Anyway, thanks for setting things up with your buddy, I cannot wait to go riding.

Selling things over the internet is such a tricky subject. People have more chances to be dishonest. I do not know how much longer you should wait ski-laxn, that has to be whatever your gut tells you.

best of luck,

Andy

I've tried to contact him thru PMs,email, & paypal no response and I have checked he has posted on the new forum. Tonight I will post his name.

 

[PJ-Hunter]

I would post it now! You paid promptly and deserve the same treatment. You waited 5 days longer than I would have. I am having the same problem with a guy from ebay. I already turned him into PayPal and made a complaint. It takes a month or so but PayPal said that I won't have to pay and my account will be credited.

 

[POLZIN]

post it before this guy sticks someone else !!

 

[Ski-Laxn]

He has contacted me and said he would return my money. There was no reason for taking so long.

 

[Sledsniper]

When you get the money post his name anyway.
I don't wan't to do buisness with him.

 

[Tturbo]

Good to hear your getting your money back, but why didn't the *** hat send the item??? 13 days is a long time to wait, your far to patient
Whats this fuggers name? so we don't have to deal with this crap!

 

[tomx]

Unless he can reasonably justify his actions, I'd post up his name so people know not to conduct business with him. The internet is a world of checks and balances, those who don't get checked will commit offenses over and over again. I got no problem outing bad business, especially among st a community where you expect a certain level of trust and respect such as SnoWest.

 

[Ski-Laxn]

I won't say bad things it was a situation I feel he learned from.

 

[Tturbo]

I won't say bad things it was a situation I feel he learned from.

Well if you ain't going to give us the name to protect us in the future then don't come here and bitch. We all want to live/work/enjoy this community and why not look out for friends!. Wether he learned or not!
You dont have to say anything bad about him to provide his name
