Cry babies

What gives with buyers who pay via paypal, live across the country and expect delivery in 2 days and pay for first class USPS. It is getting nuts. It can takes3 to 4 business days via USPS.

  • Paypal is instant, so they expect the item to be just as fast. Ever notice it is usually the buyers who just bought an item for under 10.00 who cry first and cry scam fastest.

    I am glad I no longer suffer that Paypal headache.

    I had some yo-yo buy a .99 cent card from me a month or so back, he takes 3 weeks to send me a check in the mail after 2 excuses about unforseen bills that came up, then he proceded to send at least 4 or 5 threatening emails within 3 days of the check arriving. This of course before the check had even cleared, nevermind time it takes to ship.

  • I had a card sell for one penny plus the 2.00 shipping. Buyer took 2 weeks to pay, the day after I recieved payment he was accusing me of being a scammer etc...

    After the 4th Email I told him off and I never heard another word from him, he got the card left me a positive and I added him to my BBL.

    I basically told him to look at my other items and you will clearly see if I was running a scam it would not be with a card that sold for a total of 2.00.

    i sold a car hood to a guy in CA (i live in TN) and he was expecting it Tuesday when he payed Sunday night. the hood was still on the car. i'm still working with him trying to get it shipped. i'm having a very difficult time getting something of this size delivered to a residence.


    Thanks,

    Welp, I'm currently about to neg and file some forms on a seller who sold me 2 rookie cards on April 30th(I paid that day via paypal) and although he has a great feedback he hasn't responded to my numerous messages or anything. Thats why I get pissed. I'm more than willing to wait 2 weeks for any package; but I'm not trying to get screwed. I had to neg another seller last week for sending me the wrong card(He claimed it was a Cabrera bowman chrome refractor rookie) and it turned out to be his 2nd year card. He tried to "excuse" his way out of it so I negged him. He yadda yadda yadda'd me but I could care less, if it says something in the title it d@mn well better be that imo.


    I consider myself real chill on auctions, as I've had items from Cali arrive in 2 days and items from literally a county away take over a week to arrive.
    Collecting;
    Mark Mulder rookies
    Chipper Jones rookies
    Orlando Cabrera rookies

    You should check with your bank - they changed the laws and checks should take only 24 hours to clear now.

    And what does that have to do with anything that happened in my situation ?
