Buyers Beware

Any ebayers be aware of this seller, nightelf1999. I won one of their auctions and when I paid with paypal, got an e-mail stating that they did not accept that form of payment, even though it was offered as one of the choices in the payment section. The excuse they used was that ebay would not let them sell without a paypal account, so they entered in a bogus e-mail address.

Hey

Ive had a problem with that seller as well. They bought a cel from me on Jan 23rd. They emailed me saying they dont have a paypal account and that they would be sending a money order the next day. I still havent got the money order. Ive emailed them and havent heard anything at all. However they did leave me good feedback....

Report him as a non paying bidder. That's what he did to me. I had to provide ebay with proof that I did pay him. If he gets enough strikes ebay will kick him off.

Whoa, that's not right! Hopefully eBay will put a stop to this person. I'd be upset purchasing an item from a seller who is supposed to accept paypal but actually doesn't.

And to beat all they reported you as a non-paying bidder! Yeah, eBay should definitely be in your favor over this.

What's even better is that he negged me for it. So now my 100% is gone. But my neg to him dropped him to 94.1 % and hopefully informed other buyers on how shady he is.

I understand. Why now? Where did you get your 100% is gone?

Well I reported them as a non-paying bidder. After I emailed him 2 more times and never heard anything back. Nor did I get t he money order they told me they were going to mail out 2 weeks ago.

I have relisted the item they won on ebay last night as well.

Hopefully they get kicked off ebay soon.

Sorry about your 100% feedback loss

I'm not too upset over it since they're redoing the feedback system anyways.

Glad to see that you relisted and reported him. Hopefully ebay does something about him.

New update already...lol

I was just looking at my feedback and the person left me feedback...good feedback saying they got the item....this person is weird......He never got the item because he didnt pay for it...

He probably meant to leave it for someone else. That's good for you so he can't neg you now. If he doesn't respond to the dispute though, ebay removes the feedback they leave for you.

Right now? Hmm, are you serious?

I like that one! That's nearly as good as excuses I get from students.

I left you negative feedback because I hate it when people don't send me things I won't pay for.

eBay and PayPal discriminate against dishonest people. Don't you start too!

If you send me your social and bank PIN number I'll send you payment ASAP!

Can I pay you when I get the first installment of Col. Nasruddin's fabulous looted personal Nigerian fortune that I'm laundering in the US for his heirs?

My eBay account is also bogus. You gotta problem with that?

Here's a third-person check in payment. Send the cel to:

Ugotiby Credulous
Cell #2457
1300 Metropolitan Avenue
Leavenworth, Kansas 66048

Can I have a tracking number, please?

Lord, makes me glad I'm not a seller xD

He replied to my feedback that it was the most immature feedback he read. So I sent him a message thanking him for admitting that he left immature feedback. LOL

So you admit that you have a prejudice against immature people as well? Shame on you! I'm sending a whiny 9-year-old brat with a runny nose over to kick you in the shins and sneeze on your cels.

Reminds me of when my college campus decided against putting out a flyer recognizing the research interests of some faculty, because there were so many loyal campus citizens who chose to do nothing but teach. "Yes, yes," a colleague of mine at another place commented. "It never pays to discriminate against mediocre people."
