As for collection agencies, no ethical collection agency will accept your business unless you can prove that a debt is owed. This would not be a debt, it really is a disputed issue. And most agencies are looking for businesses that can send them hundreds, or thousands of files.

Well he then gets the item and then says I lied about the listing blah blah blah.
I respond to him via ebay message and ask why would you give me a negative, did I offend you etc. etc.
He replies back almost instantly which kinda leads me to believe he just is one of those negative human beings that wants to spread the negativity to whomever he is contact with. He keeps messaging me but I won't respond to him because I know he just wants to argue which is pointless. I did block him but as we all know once a message is started they can always still message even when blocked.
Now hes only about 1 1/2 hour away from where I live. I'm VERY tempted to take a bus out to his home and just confront him and see what happens. I know we ALL have had this fantasy in one way or another..
He made me waste 3 hours out of my day and it would be VERY rewarding to see him coward in front of me if I do this.
Has ANYONE ever done this?
I don't have intentions to have anything become physical, I just would like to have man to man conversation ....without a computer to hide behind | I would not do this. It won't work in your favor. To get revenge you need to ask Revenge himself. I like having a little more fun without getting bloody sometimes.
Instead, send him a personal revision request. Take a brick a write on it "revise it" in a few days do another window with another brick "remove it now". Then in two weeks another one "last chance". Then send him a revision request via ebay, lol.
Or you can monitor him, log his daily routine and habits. Then sneak inside his home and remove his negative feedback yourself.
You can also visit his home and offer him free internet with free setup & installation included. Then ask him if you can see what's his internet speed like on his pc. When you get on his pc start coughing and ask for some water with ice. You will have 2 minutes to revise the feedback yourself.
All jokes aside move on and forget it.

I'm over it.
I thought about it and there is to many negatives that can occur. Of course I DID think of the positives unlike ....most of you. (cough cough jeff)
I had a 14 day return policy offered so hes going to probably return it. I will wait as LONG as POSSIBLE to refund him the money. I already left him "negative feedback". He CAN'T leave me any because he already did and I got it removed. hahaha
All in all I pretty much win, so I can't complain.
He did waste my time and caused me stress but oh well...
The poop idea might just happen though.
Or I egg his house.... hmmm....ideas ideas ideas.....

Keep in mind that most people in this world are tough behind a computer screen. It's easy to do, because they have the "you can't get me" attitude
Go for it. Go to his house or apartment and camp out. Get a visual on him. If you feel you can take him (you have to know for a fact, not afraid of physical contact ) then go for it. Confront him. 90% of the people in this world are afraid of physical contact, never been in a fight etc... Those guys are usually in jail |

So to make things more interesting....
My account was flagged for "brand misuse" ...the only listing that got "removed" was a item already sold.
Now I know this piece of sh*t flagged my account. I have more listings that "brand misuse" BUT I know eBays system DOESNT pick up on them as the names themselves just aren't either big enough yet OR it can easily be mistaken as a verb or noun. The listing that got "removed" I've known not to use that brand in my titles but I did it anyways...eBay didn't catch me doing it, this as$holes flag did.
I've never had issues with this, its just this one person who has no life and now wants to sabotage my account. I will NOT respond to any of his messages because its the situation where the more I do the MORE he will and when I say more its the freak buyer type.
Also....I had one other listing that was similar to the one this as$hole bought and it was purchased today. Guess what....? About 15 minute drive from his house. This account has been around since 1999. The freak buyer has been around since 2013. But I think its a buyers account for this 99' guy. IDK....
Just seems a bit odd that it sells right after I get flagged AND its nearly minutes away from this guys house.
Part of me wants to cancel it but....if its him again I already got one negative removed I'll do the same thing again.
I've never had this issue before because my titles are well thought out and in no way should he be doing this. Some people....
Now if my account DOES get suspended because this buyer does something to get it banned, my whole initial post will be reinstated (in full effect).

Have a box with fire crackers that are lit.
Whoever finds the box stamps on it to put the crackers out..... And finds the soft dog doo doo all over his feet.
And yes this was done by an annoyed party.

I don't know what yet but.... hes causing TOO many issues for $25.
And trust me I would of just refunded him and moved on but he left the feedback right after delivery so he gave me 0 chances.

in person? why waste your time and petrol....
you have their name, number and address - what more do you need for a little fun...
actually after the neg was removed, you could have just cancelled and not sent it out...seeing as you 'knew he was trouble when he walked in'...
I had a nasty buyer and I saved my chicken roast dinner leftovers in the garage til they smelled bad, then gift wrapped them and posted to said imbecile...and for a month, I laughed so hard my chest hurt, whenever I thought of the look on their face....

He got the item then left the negative. He would have left negative if I cancelled it before shipping it anyways..
I think hes stealth which is BS. So the freak buyer buys the same product on this account since 2013. Some other guy just bought the same product the freak buyer flagged and has a account since 1999. Well.. he SELLS the same stuff the freak buyer buys...
And their address is only a 20 minute drive from each other. Its really not hard to connect the dots with this one.
I have yet to have this problem since selling on eBay, it was only a matter of time.
I'm going to send something to his address regardless, just don't what yet. Hahaha..
I will get the last laugh...
And if it means I buy from his main account and .... with 5 negatives and cases I will do it.
2 can play at this game. Business 101
