Yay! A new record for me

[BigCJ]

Him being out of the country is non of your business.

He had a confirmed location to ship it out too, he received it. 16 MONTHS is ridiculous.
It wasn't 16 days, or even 16 WEEKS....but MONTHS? LOL

Some people feel so entitled.

[kingdomcome84]

responding to his question would definitely open a case of worms. he knows he cant contact ebay or paypal on the matter because they will no longer have record of what was sold.

[Klemantina]

Give him a refund, he needs his medicine.

Not worth responding to - wasting time

There's literally nothing for the OP to fight for. The buyer isn't able to open a dispute, leave a negative feedback, nor issue a credit card/bank chargeback.

You just reply back to the email with "k". Or if they waffled on just put "Too long didn't read."

[GreenBean]

Or let it slide off into the sunset.

Buyer made an error saying SNAD.

Not too smart there after a timespan of 16 months.

No - that opens up a can of worms

After 16 months? They cannot do any disputes with Paypal, eBay, credit cards etc all they could do is make ⊗⊗⊗⊗ accounts and try to ruin your eBay account. In which I doubt they would do that, and besides if you tell them they can't get a refund or ignore them, they are nearly as likely to do that if they were that kind of person.

Someone of that intellect probably couldn't make stealth accounts to wreck someones account, and bombarding an account from 0 or low feedback accounts probably wouldn't convince eBay they're legit.

I wasn't entirely serious in my answer, and personally I would just ignore them/block on anything they try and message me through.

[Gamefreak]

I record is two and half years on amazon. Just happened i few weeks ago. Account was suspended over two years ago. I LOL when i saw it.

[pokerpro]

That's incredible...I wouldn't even respond, BUT block them on every account I had!

[haohigh]

Never happened to me, coz I never had one single account lasted for 16 months.....

It there a way for us stealthers to share these problematic customers as to add them to our blocked list. I wouldn't want toml3030's customer buying from me.... Seems like a PIA!

That's a goal of yours to achieve then

[yotano211]

My record is about 8 months when someone tried to get a refund.

Best option I did was just ignore the person. Never heard from him/her again.

[bjammin]

Hey OP,

Wait about 16 months, and tell him this:

"Hello (buyer),
Sorry, I just got your message. I have been out of the country for the last 16 months. Unfortunately, my cut-off for returns is 24 months.
Thank you
(seller)

[eBay King]

Do not respond to the buyer. They can't do sh*t.

This is just another example of fraud, which is rising slowly unfortunately.

[toml3030]

So I exchanged a couple of emails with the buyer, and I don't think he is trying to scam me, just a dumbass.
