6 days is plenty of time! If I can't ship in 1-2 days, I make damn sure I stay in contact with my buyer to let them know exactly whats going on. For example: I just sold my Exedy clutch to a guy on here, I got paid Sunday and told him it would ship Monday. I got slammed at work and I immediately sent a PM telling him exactly why it was not shipped and what I was doing to get it shipped on Tuesday. Anything less, you shouldn't be selling **** because you don't know how to sell.

BUT, As it stands right now, you "have the advantage" you have his money and the tires if he did send them. Even if you return them, you should send the man $50 to make up for his expenses of shipping and the fees for Paypal.
That would be the only way to make everything "Fair and Square" for everyone, hard feelings aside.

I don't have the tires, the shipping company's name nor the tracking number. He has NOT refunded me a dime. He has not even responded to the paypal dispute. So how do I have the advantage?
How many days are patient? I paid him on July 27, He pm me on the 28th and said he was going to ship on the 31st. I was only asking for some type of conversation to let me know when he was going to ship from the 31- thru the 5th of August and I still don't have any idea if he shipped the tires out or not.
How long should you give someone to respond back to you after you have left them 1 (pm) a day for a week?

Well this guy filed a dispute with paypal before notifying me after about a week. The tires were at the shop getting done. I went and actually shipped the wheels and had to intercept the shipment after he filed a dispute. ALso Paypal already took 150 from my account and put it in his accout because when he filed a dispute I had money in the account. Look at this guy's posts he obviously does not know how to deal with people. I dont exactly have a tire machin in my back yard. Either way I will look into it w/ paypal but the 150 has already been taken from me so I dont understand how he doesnt have it.

Also I was told that USPS wont ship the tires without boxes. Obviously Im not going to spend over 50 bux to ship these through someone else and pay the 25 to dismount the tires. Im making like no money here as it is. This guy is an idiot but whatever he already filed dispute . 75 bux for 2 tires and hours of aggravation and like a million pms a night. Anyway Im contacting paypal. After this kid starting this thread and aggravation I really almost want to wait 30 days then give him his money after he didnt have the decency to contact me and say he didnt want the tires after all. He just contacts paypal and files a dispute. I dont know how they do it on other forums that he belongs to buy I usually wait about 20 days plus before filing disputes.

there probabaly both telling the truth because very often paypal will take the funds out and hold them for disputes which means bangbang might have not recieved them yet because the dispute isnt resolved. As for Zcar he probably did ship them out but was later then expected and did make sure he got them back after he realized the money was out of his account (or he was about to ship them and before he got to it the dispute was started) either way you both got somewhat screwed out of the deal. bangbang wasted time and Zcar wasted money on shipping. This kind fo thing just reminds you to deal with well known sellers or at least make sure they send your stuff otu the next day because i know personally its the easiest to remember the next day and its always a happy customer.

bangbang will get his money back (when you file a dispute, the funds aren't returned to the buyer right away), if he (bangbang) files a non-receipt claim, then zcar will have to send in a tracking number (which he obviously doesn't have because he didn't ship it)...oooh, after about 30 days, bangbang will get his money back so basically nothing has happened

I would have given a little more time and tried some more attempts at figuring out if he was legit and just busy or shady before dragging him through the mud like this.
