PAYPAL reversal

Hello Everyone
I would appreciate it if anyone might be able to clarify this one for me.I have some thoughts but ...
Sold 3 golf shirts to a fellow in California on Nov 30th. He paid thro Paypal.Items were shipped Dec 1st by CP expedited.They are almost there according to the tracking number.He has a 52 rating 100%
Rec'd a Paypal notice yesterday "During a recent review of our system we detrermined that you received funds from an account that reportedly has been associated with poossible unauthorized use.They then reversed the transaction.He has purchased items after my transaction.
His address was unconfirmed which is why Im not protected.Maybe it's just me but what could be the unauthorized use if he is getting the shirts anyday now and is still on ebay?
Thanks
rik

Thanks Harvey. I'm only glad I didn't post my first draft response to bestshowtime.

I have no problem with people expressing their views. In fact, I come here to read people's views. I must be getting old and cranky though because I am far less tolerant of people who ridicule others for expressing those views.

bestshowtime has twice now (that I have read) suggested that experienced Powersellers on this board have posted without thinking. The only person that I can see that is guilty of that fault is bestshowtime. For someone new to the board, he/she has a lot to say but nothing of value to talk about. Bill

Stop blowing smoke is an understatement! Try getting your head out of your butt Bestshowtime! You're the one who doesn't have a clue what you're talking about.

Do you guys ever read the PayPal board when you get a few minutes? This one, who says we're the dummies (in so many words) thinks everyone sooner or later will get their PayPal account frozen because it's happened to him and warns anybody who posts on the board not to accept PayPal. ffftttt

Get over yourself and learn from the others on this board. NOBODY is perfect and none of us know everything but we can all certainly learn from one another. Discussion of differing opinions is one thing but you seem to be scoffing at what others have to say completely dismissing it as nonsense while you spew your own brand of drivel.

You need a serious wakeup call if you think the low paid teller who deposits your money order at the counter has the final say on what is or isn't a real money order or cheque. Some banks have been known to put holds on money orders for 30+ days. Gee I wonder why they do that? hmmm...... Could it be they need to make sure it's real and that it actually clears? You're too much!

There's a few others but thats enough. eBay needs to do something about their Power Seller standards. If Power Sellers are supposed to be the cream of the crop they've got to be held to higher standards than just sales quotas. This is ridiculous!

WOW, this guy is unbelievable! After reading those 3 links I realized that I just waisted 30 min. of my life that I'll never get back. I have just made a decision that I will not respond to any comment made by this guy. It's just a waste of time. after all why try to give him advise, he already knows everything. Maybe if we all ignore him he'll go away.
I just have one question;
Been here and done what? .....Never mind, I don't care!

It's a shame when a relatively new person to the boards decides to start out as a "troll".

I have not read a single thing that bestshowtime has written that holds any validity. IMHO he very likely ran into problems with Paypal as a result of his own lack of understanding as to how eBay and Paypal works. Now he has a vendetta against them that he feels he has to perpetuate on all boards he visits.

Harvey, you have the right idea. I for one will no longer respond to anything the person says. I'm also very confident that he will be gone from the Powerseller board in the near future - a person with his attitude just doesn't maintain sales at the necessary level for long. It's also very likely that he will shoot himself in the foot and booted off eBay before long. Paypal has already determined that he has attempted to open multiple accounts and has caught on to him.

It's been a while since there has been a troll on the Cdn. Powerseller board. Fortunately they don't last long.

Happy New Year!

i've been reading all the posts regarding bestshowtime, and have read all his posts, and yes, do find him a bit forward (for lack of a worse word), and kind of feel a little bad for him and everyone ganging up on him. now i know what you're thinking, he brought it on himself and so forth, but maybe some people just come off sounding the wrong way, or have better intentions of the way they sound, or sometimes don't even know any better. its obvious there's a language barrier there, maybe his choice of words sound rude, but maybe its a lack of knowledge on his part to find the right words?
i don't know, just being the devil's advocate here, not to say i condone or agree with him, but its the holidays...i guess my heart is a little softer these days..?

u-deserv-it, did you read some of the other threads that Debbi provided links to? Sorry, there is very little doubt in my mind that bestshowtime is deliberately making attacks on people for their views. He has belittled Powersellers and newbies alike.

If it makes you feels better though, I'll wait for us to get past this holiday season and into the New Year to thoroughly condemn his actions. Maybe I can control my hardened heart until then.

u-deserv-it, your cup is definitely half-full 🙂

Personally, what bothers me about this guy is how he presents to buyers. As a Canadian and a Powerseller, I find it embarrassing to have someone with this attitude representing Canadian PS' in an international market.

and banks DO NOT check every single money order/check/draft etc...every single time..
Yes, they do check, just ask them.
Many of the people on this board have been around on eBay long enough to have a pretty good idea as to which payment tools work and which ones present a greater risk
To have better idea what is work you don't have be long time on E-bay(just work and sale in any place).
In recent months there have been more and more threads regarding forged USPS and Canada Post money orders
It is taller must call and check post money order before he put it on your account(tel. number written on another site of order)
I glad to see that I'm not the only one that feels the same way about this fellow seller who's constantly shooting down others opinions
Please: give example!
I have no problem with people expressing their views.
Same feeling.
It's just a waste of time. after all why try to give him advise, he already knows everything
If you think this way, you right. I don't need your advice!!!
Now he has a vendetta against them that he feels he has to perpetuate on all boards he visits.
That is fist person, who understand me. Also, I want protect new E-bay customers. I got e-mail everyday that somebody account is limited. People ask for help!!!
treasure-pot you real smart but this:
Paypal has already determined that he has attempted to open multiple accounts and has caught on to him.
That is problem that I don't have second account with paypal.
a person with his attitude just doesn't maintain sales at the necessary level for long
It is still legal to make wishes.
Personally, what bothers me about this guy is how he presents to buyers. As a Canadian and a Powerseller, I find it embarrassing to have someone with this attitude representing Canadian PS' in an international market.
Trust me, I do it better than you. Read my feedback and yours.

Yes, when you get 'green' taller he will tell you that your money order he will be hold for 30 days like personal cheque from USA. Ask manager help and see what happens.

It is last one my post on Canadian PowerSellers Discussion Board about paypal because what is really important for you it is how to make money on E-bay!!!
And you return on Discussion Board when you start to loose money. But it is simple-any business has problems like this. Take it and go over it because black never will be white. Same with paypal you lose claim with your buyer go over. Good luck in your 2007 Year sale!!!

treasure-pot I saw that you wrote book for of the new Canadian version of 'eBay For Dummies'. Sorry, never read!!! Do you know why??? Because not everybody Dummies!!! But remember that most books like this destroy families!!! Like bombs destroy civilian people in Iraq, Afghanistan. I bet you never wrote that sellers who use paypal can have limited account and they’re money can block for years and they can lose everything. What you feel now? Proud!!! Or may be it is simple like through bomb on this family like somebody do it in Iraq. What is difference??? Please, Respond!!!
