Paypal limited after making errors

[GTB]

yup

move on and live and learn

[frasier]

just got a message from a buyer who had sent payment to new paypal account just before they froze it.
I had paid my supplier around £65 and the customer paid £280.

so because paypal froze the trasaction I could only refund £215 until at least I knew what was happening, and after exlpaining this to the buyer this is what they had to say

Hi

I am sorry but this is unacceptable.

You can transfer the remainder into my account.

If this is not acceptable I will notify the police....this is fraud.

Please let me know.

Regards

[rsot]

Maybe other folx will discuss and let you know but I don't have comments on how to operate - that is refund, what to sell, etc. - unless I can get a % - sorry =(

Do as you see fit.

Just an afterthought - why are you refunding the buyer if he is happy with his item? Unless...you don't have the item yet?....

[frasier]

he dosnt have the item.

when I paid my supplier for the product, paypal froze the transaction and wont either reverse or allow to go through.

so transaction is in limbo

[rsot]

That is not good - you will have to refund the buyer. Don't let customers push you around with police or fraud (even though yes this is what you are doing ha).

Man, anymore I tell you is getting into the business side of your affairs - again, not much I can say =( This forum is for operating in stealth - what you choose to do with how you operate is your own business I guess.

Call up Paypal and tell them you want to refund the buyer in full.

[GTB]

tell the buyer to file a dispute,

also say...you cannot send any money as pp will be returning the money anyway,regardless if you send money or not

you have nothing to worry about

also tell the buyer it is against eb rules to blackmail sellers

that will put a spanner in their works

my bad,

thought the funds were locked up in pp

yeah mate,you need to load the account and pay the buyer back

tbh i think the payment you made to the supplier may get reversed too

is it a chinese supplier by any chance?

this happened to me before

pp reversed the payment to my supplier & refunded the buyer with it

& kept the rest for 180 days

its out of your hands really,like rsot said,all you can do is ring them up and ask them to refund the buyer in full

forget about the threats,just be polite and let the buyer know you are doing all you can to resolve the problem asap

[rsot]

Let's wait to see what GB or other mods say on this

[frasier]

yeah GTB chinese supplier

[expiredpeanutbutter]

alright alright everyone thats tellin dude to calm down needs to calm down he's been told enough everyone doesn't have to keep saying it.

[isitworththestress]

To The OP just refund the buyer if you have funds if not just send them a message telling them you can do nothing but refund them once paypal return the funds back into your account. Ask paypal when that will be, as the buyer will be happier with a date of refund.

Try keep the buyer onside as a pissed off buyer can cause any new accounts no end of trouble, even though all they can do now is go at you through paypal and ebay, as the police will just tell them it is nothing to do with them.

[GTB]

yeah,they might of limited the account because you took a big amount in from a buyer and then sent money to china,it happens

imo i think they will refund the buyer,and reverse your payment to china

that will be the end of it

the buyer will think your out to scam him,just tell him nicely not to worry,pp will refund him in full as your account is completely dead,pointless appealing it

open some nice new stealth accounts and when buying from china,try not to use pp accounts that you need for eb

This ENTIRE Thread Makes NO Sense AT ALL,,Half this thread is Dedicated to "Calming" Down The Threadstarter,,,I Too was "Taken" in by this early in the Thread,,but now The Rest of the Posts Begin to Unravell something a Bit more Sinister,,,Im Thinking that the OP Does NOT want to issue a Refund,,it is CLEARLY the Right thing to do,,instead is Looking for maybe someone here with a Similar Experience and with Similar Motives to Weigh in and Teach him how to Get around the Refund so he can get ALL The money,,,,

Maybe we should be trying to Calm the Buyer (VICTIM) Down,,,


Am I Truly the ONLY One here who see's this Situation this Way?

Come on now,,Im NOT That Intelligent

[rsot]

@Slapped, if you saw my posts I was hinting at that - wants to find a way around to just keeping the profit (#27).

Waste of my time - and yours I might add ha

[missinglink]

he don't have product, his strategy is take order and then buy from supplier, it takes at least 7-10 days to get it dropshipped to customer, more like 12 days, as supplier needs to pack and ship, not good way to do business as buyer complains about delay, plus I bet it is vero item, so comes from china and the customer get suspicious, unless it comes to frasier instead, and then it takes even longer to go to customer 2 weeks unaceptable.

[slapped]

Yet here we all are Discussing this Dudes "Issue" and Where is He?,,,Has not been heard from In 2 Days,,,Someone PM Him and make sure that he is not Hyperventelating,,,

Maybe it is Me,,,,,But I Doubt it


@RSOT,,Yes I saw your post,,,Did you get to see Mine,,,Where I Outright Called Him Out on the issue?,,,The Post That I wrote using David Copperfeilds Keyboard on Cris Angels Computer?

[GTB]

fraiser will have no choice in the matter,he is limited 180days

even if he wanted to keep the money he couldnt,pp will refund the buyer in full once they have reversed the payment to the chinese supplier,

and anything left over will be released after the 180 days

[frasier]

slapped i do not have any sinister motives just was trying to sell some things on ebay made some mistakes want to refund buyer in full, in fact my account has no money to keep anyway, I just came here to find some help from people who had done the same thing and I have now got that, thanks to those who were helpful, you know who you are, I appreciate it

[GTB]

Thats OUTSTANDING,,and I truly hope that its True,,,I apoligize if I have Offended you in ANY Way,,,But your Posts indicated to me (and Others) that there was the POSSIBILITY of foul Play

You Must understand that the #1 Reason that WE (ALL of us) have such a Hard time with Ebay and Paypal is Because that there are A LOT of Low Lives out there (and On this Forum) That go around Ripping People off,,,and China and Chinese Suppliers Play a Central role in all of that,,,

This Forum is NOT About Ripping People off,,,we Devolpe Workarounds to Measures that are implemented by Ebay and Paypal to Combat those Lowlives,,,,, and unfortunatly these measures whatever they may be often take down HONEST Hardworking Peoples accounts in the Process,,,That is why we are all here

The VERY LAST thing we want is The workarounds that we come up with to wind up in the hands of a THIEF!!!,,,,

So if there are any Rip Off artists out there,,,,,YOU ARE NOT WELCOMED HERE!!!
