I bought a intake from this guy DaZfan619..........I have yet to receive it even though he claimed it was mailed out on the 9th of this month. Something is fishy and he has not logged back on since the 11th at 12:44am. What do I do?

 

There is not much you can do, just sit and wait... unless you have any of his personal information.

 

I used paypal and I have these pm's showing where he stated he shipped it

Okay I have yet to receive the intake and I am beginning to think that it is not going to get here since you have not logged back on since our "transaction". I also see it seems by a few of your posts you are military so shame on you for scamming another brethren of yours in the armed services (army). But hey maybe I am wrong but I bought this from you 9 days ago and have yet to receive this. You could have at least kept communication with me or gave me a tracking number

Marr9188: Intake????

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have still not received my intake.......please communicate back with me and let me know what is going on. Just concerned because all the other parts I ordered after your part have arrived

Marr9188:
did you ever get a tracking number for me

 

doing my research though I realized he was not military. So ignorance on my part, and I am not starting this thread to flame the guy as this is not my character and class. Just wanting to get this resolved and get some info and ideas of what you would do?

 

Wait a few days then file a dispute on paypal, hopefully you will get your money back. Link to thread you purchased? How many posts did he have? It may be legit but you never know.

 

He has 224 posts and here is the link

i think you can call or contact pay pal and tell them the situation. they would cancel the transaction.

 

thanks any other input or does anybody have anything to say on this

 

Alright well it seems somewhat legit, I personally would wait it out a few more days (a week max) and then would contact paypal and file the dispute.

 

But I paypaled him on the 29th of january and have still not gotten this yet. I know 20 days is more than enough time to get here

 

nobody has any input

 

better safe than sorry

(whichever way you look at it)

 

My vote is to file a complaint/dispute. It has been long enough.

 

thanks for the input, I just did that with paypal........my thought process is that I bought this item from him on the 29th of january and I already gave him more than enough time to ship it out to me. I do not have time to deal with him so I will just let paypal fix it. Either way I should get my money back and he is still stuck with a air intake that nobody will buy from him since he already scammed me. I am in the military and I do not have the time, MONEY, or patience to deal with guys like him. I did not want it to come to this but I think I have been nice long enough and given more than enough time for the item to arrive

 

^ good job. when u file a dispute you can just wait and see what he does (just to be safe), but if no response or anything then take escalate your claim so they can work on it.

 

Update

Dear john marr,

After careful review, we have concluded our investigation of the Buyer
Complaint described below.

We have decided in your favor, however, we were unable to recover any funds
from the seller's account. As stated in the PayPal User Agreement, recovery
of funds associated with a Buyer Complaint cannot be guaranteed.

Please know that we will make our best effort to recover the funds in
question if they become available in the seller's account in the future and
will take appropriate action against the seller. Such action may include
issuing a warning, a temporary restriction, or terminating the account.
Keep in mind that PayPal uses a number of factors to determine when to take
action, including member complaints. Due to privacy laws, we cannot discuss
the details of any action taken. We hope you understand our policy and that
it assures you that you are safe using PayPal.

 

Anyways this douchebag told his friend he would send it to me when he had time.........I bought it from him the 29th of january. What can I do this piece of **** does not have the funds. this is bullcrap. My day cannot get any worse because just a hour ago I wrecked my car because this old hag hit me

 

Damn... these situations blow and seem to be quite common on these boards. This is exactly why I only buy/sell locally in person to prevent this from happening. But I guess its easy to say when you're living in socal vs. out in GA.

Hope everything turns out well.

 

yea tell me about it. Anybody else have anything to say on the subject, I am so p'ed off since I wrecked my car and found this out today about paypal. I should pay one of you SO Cal guys to deal with this ***** for me jkjk.

 

+1 damn man that sucks. I have a question. When you sent money to his paypal did you send it from your paypal account or did paypal take it from your bank account? just asking and do you have his personal information?
