Bought a ps3 game off a power seller 2 and a bit weeks ago, haven't got it, so messaged them and got no reply despite them leaving feedback for others and waited a few days - so opened a paypal dispute, then surprise surprise get a reply. Got the usual 15 working days balls blah blah - which it has now past, they have emailed me asking me to fill in and sign a form to say its lost...what the hell?? I dont really see why I need to do this??

Cos that way they get it refunded by RM. If they have taken so long to refund you, I'd make them wait for the form too

I have been refunded from RM without the need of MY customers sig before though?

Sometimes RM will send a form to the party who says the goods haven't arrived. You have to sign to confirm that it hasn't arrived in order for the sender to get a refund.
I've seen companies sending out forms to confirm that you haven't received an item, never seen an ebayer do it though.4 Stones and 0 pounds or 25.4kg lighter :j0 -

I don't have a fax so they expect me to print it and post it? Before I get my refund (so another 2-3 days wait)
They can ban me from buying there stuff all they like, I do not plan to buy from them ever again.The Fields are Green, The sky is blue, the River Nene goes winding through, The market square is Cobblestoned, It shakes the old dears to their bones, A finer town you'll never see, A finer town they'll never be, Big city lights don't bother me, Northampton Town I'm proud to be!0 -
Terrible CS, are they expecting you to wait for RM to refund them I wonder?
It would have been a neg from me for making me wait the 15 days for a refund.0 -

Well calling me a liar also pushes it to a neg...The Fields are Green, The sky is blue, the River Nene goes winding through, The market square is Cobblestoned, It shakes the old dears to their bones, A finer town you'll never see, A finer town they'll never be, Big city lights don't bother me, Northampton Town I'm proud to be!0 -
Is the form they want you to sign a RM one, or one they've made up?
Can you escalate to a full claim now through Paypal for a refund, I'd be doing that & blow the form.0 -
I'd be ignoring the form and escalating or phoning paypal explaining what has happened.
I would NOT fill out the form at least until I had my refund, and once I had my refund I would also neg for making me open a claim in the first place.
Terrible way to run a business but having read some of the threads on the powerseller board last night there is a new breed of mega sellers who seem to have some odd ideas and truly believe every buyer to be a scammer. I would get your sid eof the story in to paypal though, as some of the mega sellers reckon ebay remove their 'open cases' number and negs if they complain .I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.

Right, apologies, I thought you meant the RM one that sometimes come through after a sender has a claim that the recipient hasn't received it.
Companies like Very, M&M Sports send you a form out before they will issue a refund. I haven't seen it from any ebayer though. Were they using a courier? Both the companies I mentioned were using couriers when stuff went missing, am wondering if it's something the couriers expect.
No that can't be it either, as you said RM. Anyhoo, I would escalate to claim now. And talking of M&M I've just remembered I was expecting a parcel from them..... Wonder where the courier's put it....4 Stones and 0 pounds or 25.4kg lighter :j0
