Posts: 51
I am wondering what the typical wait time is before you set up a dispute with Paypal because of cards not being sent?
If you email the seller after about ten days,and get no email response,is that about right to then set up a claim?
For example,I paid one of the better well-known 1972 PSA set collectors the purchase price agreed to on 4/02/07.
After about ten days,I emailed the seller two or three times in the next couple of days,but got no response from him.
I then set up a dispute with paypal hoping to get a response from the seller.I did get the response but the seller suggested that I was impatient with him.He promised to send the cards out within the next few days...Today is April 20th and still no cards.I have purchased cards from literally hundreds of sellers,and have yet to have this kind of service.Is this unusual or is this typical for the seller????It is the SportsCardMan Store...Arnold Varona or Arny Vee???Any clues???I know he is usually responsive to the Set Registry Message board.....
Thanks....Bill

A day or two delay by a seller can be understood -- perhaps a week in extra ordinary circumstances. But make it a claim while you still can to either invigorate the seller to act or to get your money back.
I had to initiate a Paypal dispute today on a $1,500 item that I paid for twelve days ago and still have not gotten. I really don't understand some sellers sometimes.

Bill, please have some patience as I've already discussed with you what the issue was. As you can see (and from our NUMEROUS past deals with each other), I take care of the folks that I ship to.
I currently have two packages (yours and another very patient board member) that I've had an issue getting shipped. But, rest assured that you will receive your package as you always have from me. Both packages will be sent on Monday priority (overnight if I have to) to make sure that they get there by mid-week. I was originally under the impression that my wife had sent both packages early last week, but those were other ones that I had prepared to go out.
I'd like to publicly thank Robert (rvc) for the patience that he's exhibited.

By the way Arny is still waiting for 4 PSA 9 78 Topps Dodgers cards i sent him that haven't arrived. Thanks to the wonderful world of USPS they have managed to lose this package. I have sent Arny his refund as two weeks have passed and neither of us have received the package. This guy is a class act all around. He could have come on these boards and start b**ching and moaning like some other people do here but he didn't.
Based on what I've read so far, I'd have to agree with Bill in this case as well. Three weeks to ship is way too long, IMO.

The issue was not whether I was late in shipping or not. I completely agree that my delay in shipping was not a good thing. I've dealt with Bill on many deals and have always paid him quickly and shipped just as quickly....heck, he really did help me finish my 1972 set with some low pop commons. But, for those folks that I've dealt with consistently and have known me to hold up my end of the bargain each time, you'd think that I'd get the benefit of the doubt when I say that I've been having my issues in shipping.
Again, I agree 100% that the delays were not good. But, I would think that 'outing' someone on a small deal ($50) when you've dealt in hundreds (and some folks on the boards, thousands) of dollars worth of trades and sales with people would be detrimental to a person's online reputation.
I definitely haven't had any major issues (delays in shipping have happened in the past from me, but not the norm) with most on the boards and on eBay.
At any rate, the only thing that I didn't agree with was the way in which Bill decided to take this 'public'. But, it is NOT his fault in regards to the deal that we had in place. I take full responsibility for that. Hopefully we can put this to rest shortly as Bill should have both of his cards by Wednesday or Thursday at the latest.
Bill, moving forward, please PM me on these boards rather than starting or continuing any threads about our deal. I appreciate it.

After the payment was made on 4/2/07,ten days elapsed before I did anything.I,then,emailed you on three different days asking you for a response.So I did try to keep it private,but I got no where.I opened up a dispute with PAYPAL after getting no response from you.Once I did this,you responded with the fact that I was being impatient,that it was your birthday weekend, and I would get my cards in a few days.Now,another week goes by.Still no emails from you.That's when I put the thread out and went public.My point is that it is the seller's responsibility to get back to the buyer and communicate what any problems may be so the buyer doesn't feel like he's being ripped off,ignored,or stiffed.That was why I asked the initial question in the first place...Is it reasonable to have to wait 20+ days from any seller without any communication from the seller.So,I will put this one to rest.Thanks to all that offered their opinions and ideas.I think it was helpful.
Arny,
I would suggest no more dealings with this individual to avoid any future problems. Apparently he likes to beat the dead horse.
