John Bruh Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Have a story similar to anthony's. I called a guy in Chicago about his snap on tool box. He's asking 1500 obo. I talk him into 1300 since its a long drive for me, ask him if he has a paypal account so i can send him a deposit so he wont sell the box. He says yes, but his wife handles that so he tells me to call back later in the afternoon to talk to his wife. So i call back talk to her send a deposit to hold the tool box. Well this morning i get an email saying well they can't sell the tool box " because just cuz" is exactly what he said. Well i called him 3x today and no answer had my g.f with her out of state number and his wife calls back and says they sold it this mornging. WTF!!! I'm fucking Pissed. I filed a claim with paypal (well she did send the 145 of the 150 deposit back) but is there anything else i can do. I mean what a fucking douche bag!!!!

kinkinhood Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 You can just file the claim with paypal to get the full money back and then wash your hands of it. Nothing else really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brrcats Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 1. fuck deposits, if you make a deal, its a deal, I'll show up with the cash. 2. so they ended up stealing 5 dollars from you? I guess you can always file a paypal dispute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I can imagine is because of the fee paypal charges you, but its not your fault they backed out. Id make sure to get the other 5 bucks back also. Sure its only 5 bucks, but its the principle.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Main3s Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Be glad you're only out $5 at this point. They could have kept all your money. Suckes either way I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evan9381 Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 what she probably did is sent you what she had in the account after the fees hit, instead of doing it correctly and processing it as a refund, which would have reversed the fees and you would have got all your $ back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bruh Posted September 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 im not pissed about the $5. im pissed that the god damn tool box that ive been looking at, which they are all going for 2600+ and this one was 1300 and i put a deposit down and the bastards still sell it.

evan9381 Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 while i dont condone what he did, if its a 2600$ box he had listed for 1500 and you negotiated him down another 200$, if someone offered him the 1500$ he was wanting for it, you can't be too upset. long drive or not, that sounds like a heck of a discount at 1500. yes, you missed out on a deal, but you probably should have taken it at 1500 Edit by Nurkvinny - Watch the racial slur.
