    Just ignore him. I know its easier said than done, but hes trying the direct route you bullying you.
    Yes you may have to tell paypal the information, but its mainly ticking a couple of boxes, and wrting a line or two silimiar to -
    Item not recieved have notified seller, they are now harresing me via my personal email account, I will forward the emails should you require them.

    Job done,- Paypal will soon realise what is going on.

    I don't even know whether it will work, (if I am wrong I do apologise in advance), but maybe try contacting your supplier and say your getting harrasing emails and see if they can do anything?

    Plan B - ring Ebay and explain that the seller is dharresing you, and also niotify paypal.

    But most of off, try not to let it worry you xx

    Just ignore him. We've told you what to do and by doing it you'll get your money back.

    He's talking out of his @rse about the paypal process.

    Just tell him to do one and delete and delete any further email.

  • All of that paypal stuff is pure BS.
    They can't prove delivery, so you will get your money back simple as that, no providing names etc, if they want all that then they can chase it themselves.

    Personally I would mark their emails as spam- that way you don't even have to look at what they say, as it is completely irrelevent and obviously stressing you out.
    This is my opinion. There are many others like it but this is mine

    I am a professional ebay seller. I work hard at my job, I love my job, if you think it's silly that's your problem not mine. :p

    I'm going to forward the email to Ebay, put him on block, take a couple of paracetamol and have an early night!

    Thats right deep breaths. I have dealt with some nutters on ebay over the years and they resort to cyber bullying. If any more emails get in and you have another person in your house let them look and delete. Don't look.

    Send them to ebay but there is something about removing headers for them to open them so check first.

    Paypal will send an email if he submits anything. Just remember it will take a while for them to allow the evidence to be given to them before finding in your favour.

    Does this seller know what you wanted the ornament for? iIf so they may be trying to make you give in because they know you are upset. Don't let the bu**ers grind you down.

    Don't block him, set up a filter on your email and keep all his bollocks there unread. It may be useful as evidence of what a Muppet he is for your paypal action.

    I think many of you are jumping the gun a bit here. The guy might be talking nonsense but it seems he has a system (whether his or paypal I know not).

    We have paypal in two countries involved and I can only assume that although the system is probably very similar there will be slight differences in how it is handled in the UK and the US.

    With the current hassle over here with postal strikes in the UK I would have made a polite enquiry with the seller and not done anything until a month had passed.

    But hey ho too late now.
