Now, here is the story.
On November 17 2009, a guy from the US purchased 3 blu-rays from us (about $250). We simply shipped them in 3 different packages to avoid damages and save cost (no tracking number). On December 10, 2009, he purchased another 4 blu-rays from us (that cost another $350). We shipped the second package with tracking number since this shipment is over $300.
The most interesting thing is that this guy then claimed paypal after we shipped the second shipment (after Dec. 10) that he never received anything from the first shipment (3 different packages) from us. Would you buy from us again if you never received anything after 1 month? Of course, he won since we had no tracking number: losing all 3 packages at the same time?? Now, since the second shipment had tracking number, he then claimed paypal that he received totally different things (French version, dented box, missing disks etc). Of course, paypal requires him to ship back and yet he shipped back total junk!! He won again, getting all of our blu-rays at no cost. Other sellers of blu-rays also contacted me about him. Apparently, he did similar things to other sellers and got his free blu-rays (filed claims to paypal).
Of course, as soon as he filed paypal, his id was in our block-list. Now, he comes back using another ebay id with a different first and last name from the same physical address, buying $300 worth of blu-rays from us again TODAY. We checked feedback from both accounts. The feedback that he left to his sellers from both accounts are exactly the same, words for words.
I was talking with ebay's rep. for the last 1.5 hrs. All they told me was that they will investigate and they can't tell me anything. They also suggested to complete the transaction. What? Selling to this guy again?
Two options ebay suggested:
1. if he does not pay, file an unpaid dispute after 4 days. Honestly, do you think he will not pay? He just wants my blu-ray for free.
2. ebay suggested me to email him politely and told him that I cannot sell to him.
OK. He has not paid yet. Now, I just emailed him, telling him that "sorry, we cannot sell to him". He emailed me back and said the following
"what do you mean you just cant sell them??? thats not a reason.
ebay guidelines dictate that we both have entered a contract, and I am not going to have you file Unpaid Item Disputes against me because you dont have a good enough reason not to follow through with this sale."
I am stuck! Hopefully, ebay will suspend him. Not sure if I can post id. if I am allowed, I would post both id here for every powersellers here. Let me know and thanks. Sorry for the long story.
