And Then the Guy Drops Off the Face of the Earth !!

Morning,

Guy contacts me last Fri asks about a package deal for about a dozen Raw $14-$12 cards I have in my Store. Send him back the standard: Contact me direct at my E-Mail blah, blah. Sat. I get an E-mail at home E-mail from him (Not through E-Bay), so I delete his E-bay message out of messages, cause I now have direct contact e-mail. Put together deal, tell him $90 Paypal Gift delivered. (Also tell him I will need him to send address). Sat, get E-Mail, deal is acceptable, pays me $90.00 Paypal Gift, I end listings.

I have since sent no fewer than 10 E-Mails asking for an address (Because Paypal makes sure that there is no address attached when paying Paypal Gift...Their not totally stupid!), and absolutely no communication, have his cards packaged ready to go, but don't know where to send them !!!

I have never had somebody go more than a day after sending me money without providing an address, it has now been 4 days!

WTF ????

    Neil....I tried to do a deal off of Ebay/Paypal, and they made it VERY difficult to obtain an email address from the person. If it wasn't or the fact that he had an unusual name (I googled it - got an email address from the college where he worked at), I never would have been able to do the deal......

    +1 Maybe he's stinkin' rich and the amount is chump change to him . . . or something more pressing in his life has occurred.
  • Just spell out the email address, I've never had an issue.

    Morning,

    Guy finally just contacted me, got his address.

    On the subject of E-Bay making E-Mail address's disappear in their system, they have been doing it for awhile. Now about one in ten customers can't Figure this out:

    Please send an E-mail direct to me at: neiland$#$# at Q.com

    That's right !!
