Buyer Question

Post by miz ducky »

Some one has contacted me and asked to buy one of my cels.

Does anyone know a person named Chris who uses the email CJ62188(at)AOL(dot)com.

I want to check and see if anyone has any experience (good or bad) with this person.

They have agreed to pay the price right now via paypal, but have asked that I wait to ship it until next week.

Is this something that can be used to get their money back while the cel is enroute?

I've never sold anything, but hearing about the things that happened to people on this board makes me worry.

Any advice is most welcome.
Thank you!

Most likely, the person is asking you to wait because they will not be home to receive it until then. If they pay via paypal, there is no way they can get their money back for any reason other than fraud. I would just make sure that you use delivery confirmation when you ship it, as proof the person received the cel. That should help you avoid any troubles. Also, make sure you withdraw the money to your bank account as soon as it arrives.
Time is but an illusion. Lunch time...doubly so.

Let's wait and see what they do.

Thanks to all who gave me advice (whether here or via pm).

Everything went great. He even framed the cel!! I'm very happy that everything worked out so well.

I'm way late on this. X| I'm glad to hear everything worked out okay. :^^: I've asked sellers to hold things for me. I would pay immediately but ask them not to ship for a week because I was out of town. I was always up front about it all though. :wink:

I actually talk to him via aim. He's a really lovely guy. Genuine, intelligent, passionate, but not a cel collector, just a guy who buys the odd cel from his favourite shows.

Really lovely young man, an absolute sweetheart. <- has a new friend ^_^

He showed me a cel that he really wanted and he's been lucky enough to purchase it. Good for him! It's a real find.. it could even be this very cel. Stunning cel! <- yes, I am envious.

Glad that you are able to share your good experience with everyone on Beta! :)
