Ebay + Payapl ? Payment made but seems dodgy
Comments

Paypal will allow the buyer to start a chargeback 7 days after paying. You should refund as soon as the buyer is suspended, and probably before those 7 days are up. If the buyer is not suspended by then, chances are they will be before a dispute is resolved, in which case, I'm sure it will default to finding in your favour.Matt` wrote:When would be the best time to give a refund then?0 -

Thanks again, i have decided to refund the payment and relist the item.
Please always follow correct ebay procedures and don't make false claims against another user. I can understand that you might be in a less than ideal situation but it can be resolved without you having to break ebay terms and conditions.

With the paypal fee's etc will i get them back as well? If a dispute does occur could i get back the listing fee's?
I want to relist the item, but he might buy that one as well :S0 -
You cannot get your listings fees back if you pull out of the sale because of your suspicions. I think it's a fair price to pay in this situation. However, you should not have to pay any paypal fees if the payment is refunded.Matt` wrote:With the paypal fee's etc will i get them back as well?

You will be able to block your buyer from bidding in your other auctions, so it should not be a problem for you to relist. Remember, if you relist too early, that's another reason for your buyer to start a dispute, though.0 -
This thread has got an hysterical tone to it. Check the name/address out on 192.com or give him/her a call if you like. But lets keep this in perspective.
If you don't send you can fully expect a strike and a negative!!0 -

Ok, so say i do send the item, will he not just try and file a claim back saying he didnt receive it when he did etc, then i would loose all of the money?0 -

If you send it recorded delivery to the address supplied by paypal, then he cannot win a paypal chargeback for goods not received (unless it really isn't delivered). The only concern you should then have is a possible credit card chargeback for unauthorised use/goods not received (at credit card registered address), which is unlikely if his details check out. Of course, you don't know how he funded his payment.Matt` wrote:Ok, so say i do send the item, will he not just try and file a claim back saying he didnt receive it when he did etc, then i would loose all of the money?0 -
IMO this'll turn into a stolen credit card scam. I await to be proven wrong. Positive feedback doesn't count at this stage. If its a credit card scam chances are the real owner will only know next week, or next month, depending when he gets his bill, then the chargeback will happen.Originally Posted by richardjames73
