I would like to ask for some outcomes of other sellers that have received these emails/letters. I received one today that pretty much is similar to the others in the forums. Basically - do not sell, please cooperate, give us buyers, all your inventory, the supplier information, the shipment methods, the customs forms, etc, etc, etc. I know this email was authentic in that the IP address in the email header was legit.
What really peaves me is that I do not think they have anything on me. A buyer got really nasty with me, even when I refunded his money. He refused to "mutually" withdraw the sale, so i simply withheld the $4.00 shipping and Ebay fees from his refund. So, for less than $10.00 this nimrod reported me to the manufacturer.
I honestly think they are on a fishing expedition. I do not see how they would have any proof right now, in that I have the said item. And even further, I am not even convinced this item in not legit. My supplier always does a good job of informing me whether or not items are legit. (Why would he lie to me on these, but not other items?)
1. I will NOT sell these again. That would just be stupid....
2. I damn sure would never send them a sample. In fact, I no longer have any.
3. I sold about 20 of these on this account over 4 months. Ebay busted me on the last ten, all BUY IT NOWs, ENDED/Sold Listings which were shipped over two weeks ago for which I have positive feedback....These all sold for around $60.
4. My contact information is not real, however, I am using a PO Box....I am thinking that the phone number, email address, PO Box all goes down...
SO, BACK TO MY QUESTION.....Sellers, please provide some input as to the outcome in your cases....
Thanks...
