Post terrible EBAY experience...read!

Well, it finally happened, I have been ripped off!

Lukily it was only $30, but it is the point, not so much the money!

Here is a short story, I bid and won a AutoMeter A-Pillar pod for $25, good price, the guy had good feedback, 500+, and so I thought sure!

So I win, I get a e-mail from him within a day, so far so good. Then I do not hear from him for a week. At this point I still have not paid. I finally get an e-mail saying he is ready to process my transaction, I send him money via PAYPAL, the full amount.

Then I hear nothing from him for another week or so. I then e-mail him and demand a refund, now I have his attention! He said he will check if it left, I said no, send me the money back. I put in a PAYPAL money request, received nothing!!

I send him e-mails daily, usually about 2-5. I finally decided to file a fraud report and persue legal action. I know it is only $30, but he comitted fraud! EBAY takes care of everything, and it does not cost me a thing to file a report.

Once he is found guilty, he will be kicked off of EBAY.

I have been a member of EBAY for well over a year, and have bought and sold over 100 things. This was my first bad experience!

In the end, I found a great guy that gives me awesome prices on all AutoMeter stuff, and so I bought the A-Pillar pod for $20 from him.

Be careful!
