tbf, I do not like confusing stories.

He paid.

You refunded.

He paid again.

He got the phone.

You now have -£300 less in paypal.

What's missing?

Define the time frame 'the other day'???? What else happened?

As GB mentioned I am a little bit confused as well...... we need more details in order to help

Batman · #4 10-03-2012

sorry basically he paid through ebay to my paypal A but i refunded and asked to pay to paypal B.

so he paid to paypal b through paypal

i then sent the phone he got it but opened a case on paypal now my balance is -£300.

i got tracking and wrote it in paypal.

is that clear now guys? sorry for confusion im not well at structuring lol

Clear as mud (still).

What was the actual claim?

What exactly did you do IN RESPONSE to the claim?

not as described

i responded saying that i clearly wrote in description how it is so you shouldnt of bidded if you werent sure and i provided proof of tracking.

your acc is in neg but it is held and not refund yet?

you may have to get it sent back to you with tracking. If you do not and stand your ground re description, you may win but you might lose and then buyer may get to keep phone and funds....up to you to choose

Batman · #8 10-03-2012

correct oompa. its held so paypal still have to make a decision. the buyer asked to return it and i said ok so just waiting on his reply.

Basically all you can is request refund and make sure item returned is correct.

That counts for little.

Yes you have to describe well enough but buyers are still silly. See how he makes trouble for you.

Batman · #11 10-03-2012

yeah thanks guys, guess i just gotta wait for phone to come back. i was worried that imagine he sends a package without phone -.- as i read a similar thread..

he sounds alright but oh well lets see i guess.

Prodiger · #12 10-04-2012

So if that case happened to me and I received brick instead of iphone, what should I do? Contact small claims court?

Batman · #13 10-04-2012

I just got the phone today in original condition. Buyer is trustworthy

meVebay · #14 10-04-2012

Well done for linking your 2 accounts though

crafty1 · #15 10-04-2012

I am a bit confused now..............by refunding the buyer from Paypal A and getting him to pay into Paypal B, haven'y you linked both accts and its a matter of time befor PP are onto you or am I missing something here.....................

Batman · #16 10-04-2012

lol yeah i was silly but these were accs were from before and not stealth. im just getting started on my stealths and gonna do it properly

crafty1 · #17 10-04-2012

Why wud you want to get your non-stealth acct banned.

Batman · #18 10-04-2012

he might or he might send you another more damaged phone back.

Did you take any photos of your old phone imei and serial ?

Anyway , if that happens you could always open your own dispute.

really don't get why people use ebay to sell phones.

last time i checked (lastweek) my s2 was worth more at envirophone or was it mazuma,so was my mates htc, either way you get more than you do on eby .

thats true and thats what i was worried about but i got my phone in original condition and everything else with it back how i sent it.

and i kind of hate them envirophone and mazuma sites. just before iphone 5 was out i checked my iphone 4s was worth a whopping 270 quid now its gone down to 190...
