Dispute resolution thread

Mussels · Jul 27, 2010

well it was quiet in here for a while, but another bad sale has appeared:

llllllllllll said:
I bought a 5770 from TheScavenger on Thursday the 22nd and since getting my money, has ceased all communications. I have sent messages every day since the sale to inquire about shipping and getting a tracking # from him with no response. I know he is seeing the messages, because I've been tracking when he last logs in thru his profile. Erocker is also aware of the transaction and told me to give him 24 hours to respond, then file a pay pal claim.

He has 2 hours to go...

edit: apparently resolved

erocker · Jul 27, 2010

This has been/is being resolved. The items were shipped.

Update: To those that did not receive your hard drives

Mods please sticky this so that people involved will see it(thank you)

CONTACT EMAIL AT BOTTOM OF MESSAGE

I will not be able to reply here on the forum as i am not on very often(mainly due to the lack of computer at home)

I am very sorry that this happened.

I will be paying back people that did not receive their items via Paypal starting around mid November of this year

I will be paying off the Paypal account that is in the hole, that should take care of most of the people that have been affected

If there was any trades that went bad please email me at the email listed below and we will work this out.

After that anything that is left will be handled on a First in, First out basis, this means that the first person that made a purchase and did not receive his or her items will be the first to be refunded... this will go on until I run out of money... then it will have to wait till my next pay check

If you would like to take me to civil court, I will be willing to send you a letter claiming responsibility for what happened. I will also supply you with up to date contact info, this should make the process of suing me go much smoother for you.

Any and all questions can be sent to the email I have posted at the bottom of this message

either way I will need proper contact information for anyone involved, this includes the following:

Name
Home address (as it appears on Paypal)
Email
forum where you made the purchase
screen name on forum

I will need a reply with this information no later than 11/17/2010, after that I will not be accepting any new claims... Sorry about this but I have to be done with this at some point

NOTE: as a result of my current situation I will not be able to provide any support or warranty for items sold in the past... further more I can not supply any warranty or support for drives that have been resold to another person. I am sorry for this.

They should have already been refunded if you lost a dispute.

from what i understand paypal just pulled my account in the hole and never refunded the money to the the buyers :confused:

who knows...

either way if you paid thru paypay you will get refunded when i bring that account positive

if you did not pay thru paypal you will be refunded thru my paypal (or maybe thru my buddies paypal)

erocker · Oct 6, 2010

You need to get in contact with PayPal first. If people lost their money to you, they can contact you through PM's. Your thread has been moved to the "Dispute Resolution Thread" Having this thread open serves no purpose. I will bump it daily so those who need to know, will know. If you made a deal with someone, they will contact you and you pay them back. Simple enough.

Bump:

So there is currently a dispute between two members here (copenhagen69 & Fitseries3). Apparently it was on a trade where copenhagen69 sent Fitseries the item, but never recieved the item from Fitseries3. Private messages have gone unanswered. I will allow copenhagen69 to post in this thread the details.

***If you are not involved in this deal, you have no reason to post in this thread. If you are having a dispute with a Buy/Sell/Trade, please contact a moderator.

copenhagen69 · Nov 18, 2010

I contacted fits about his trade thread here : [FT] FITS: gtx470 to FOLDERs

We worked out a deal starting October first when our first PM's were exchanged ...

I shipped my card out nov 3 and he said he would have his shipped out nov 4th

nothing showed up within a few days and so I pmed him ... nothing ... pmed him a few more times before I finally got a response. He was busy with work. Said he has postage ready and it would go out the next day around nov 9th. still nothing a few days later and i PMed him since nothing had arrived. He said he would overnight it via fedex on the 12th. well now it is the 18th ... no answers of PM's except 1 to say he was busy. By now I think I have sent about 15 PMs to his 3-4 ...

need to know anything else?
I just want this resolved!

erocker · Nov 18, 2010

Okay, so we have a tracking number now. Closing up shop until anything further comes along.

Mussels · Nov 19, 2010

I'm currently in the middle of a disupute with Sladesurfer, he came back and posted a for sale thread forgetting that he scammed me a few years ago.

will provide updates as it goes along - he's suddenly stopped posting on the forum, now that i've accused him.

Mussels · Feb 1, 2011

Just got a new one in PM.

Zurginator said:
I purchased a P6T7 block for $220 from Duniek. He was quick to respond prior to payment, then quickly disappeared after. Refuses any method of contact, it's been a month since the supposed completion day, and he's not informed me of any changes. I PMed him with a 1 week warning for negative heat and taking it elsewhere. I am currently looking into filing an international claim and disputing the charge with my bank.

I will attempt to contact Duniek now.

edit: there is no user by that name, will find out if its a typo or something else.

edit 2: he goes by mmm995 on TPU.

On the 8th of October 2010, aCid wanted some stuff out of my FF thread, he just had to pay for postage. We agreed that he was going to send me a box of stuff as trade for the shipping costs.
He wanted a cpu cooler, a KVM switch, a bluetooth dongle, 2 pci slot fans, and 2 pci plates. It ended up taking up the size of a shoebox.
aCid also wanted 2x1GB SODIMM's, which he put some money in my account for. I put them in the box with the free stuff.
Through XFire, aCid said he wanted another set of SODIMM's, he paid me those and I put them in the box too.
As he paid for the two set of SODIMM's, I posted the shoebox full of goods to him. This was on 12th November.
We have spoke though PM's a few times since, and he's replied every time I've asked him when he's going to send the stuff off.
The last time we had a conversation was on January 9th. I asked him about the box of his stuff, he said "Tomorrow I hope." After that, he stopped replying to messages.
On January 28th, I messaged him on facebook, and he didn't reply to that. I PM'ed him on TPU asking if there's any word on the package and he didn't reply to that either. Also I left a visitor message with him.
On 4th February, I made a status update on facebook, and aCid replied to it. I replied to the update twice with no reply, then sent him a message through facebook, telling him he's got 24 hours before I take it to trade dispute. I also sent him the same PM through TPU and also left him a visitor message there.
He hasn't replied to any of those messages in over 24 hours.

Any info on how this can be resolved from either party or otherwise, please PM myself or another moderator from the B/S/T forum.

Looks like they are in contact with each other now. Hopefully all goes well.

Deal is finalized, all is well.

Mussels · Feb 10, 2011

still no contact from mmm995/dunieK

Mussels · Feb 20, 2011

At this point i'm going to suggest that people avoid trading with mmm995 aka dunieK, as there is still no contact from him.

PaulieG · Feb 25, 2011

Received this today. I sent Fitseries3 a PM, and awaiting a reply.

Kursah said:
Hey,

I purchased an Asus 55i Sabertooth retail box and G.Skill 2x2GB DDR3 1600 kit from Fitseries3 on Saturday, 2/19/2011 for $190 shipped.

I paid via PayPal Verified, have the transaction number.

I contacted him on Monday to verify that the package had been sent and to retrieve the tracking number...which is odd, I remember he was really good about getting that to me asap in previous purchases.

He said he was working and had forgotten it at home but would PM it to me asap. (I have the GTalk chat log to verify this as well) He did say that he shipped it all out and that it should be at my place by Wed/Thurs. Well it's Friday, he's been avoiding me, not replying to any form of contact I've attempted making with him and I either want my stuff now or my money back, ya know? Everything else I ordered last weekend made it in last night, so...I'm definitely curious as to what the hell is going on.

Never happened, next evening, I contact him again, he said he forgot and was having dinner with a client. He said he'd have his GF send it to him and he'd get it to me....again never happened.

Ever since then, I've tried contacting him via PM on TPU, IM's on GTalk, texted his phone # once and attempted calling him just minutes ago. He has not responded, answered or replied to anything in the last few days and it's frankly getting to the point that I have a bad feeling about the situation and it seems Fits has gone shady. If he ripped me off for $190, then I'll set up a PP dispute and start making phone calls. If he shipped it w/o a tracking number, lying to me a couple times and ignoring me all week just pissed me off. I don't know what the deal is, but I'm at my wits end. I used to consider the guy a friend.

How this all even started was Saturday I hop on GTalk, ask him to take a look at my new build thread as my last PC was sold to a co-worker/buddy who had to have it and put cash in my hand. Gave me a reason to upgrade. Then he said he had a p55 board and 4gb of ddr3 that'd work out for me (have this in GTalk logs as well0, I mulled it over and told him I'd do it. Things seemed somewhat normal then, but since then he's made 0 effort to try and get me a tracking number or calm my nerves. I trusted the guy, now I want something done or at least a damn response.

He has FS thread with some high dollar items right now, if he's pulling this shit with me, who knows what he'll do to other TPU members.

Please let me know what you guys can do, I've tried everything short of full on harassment. At this point I regret buying used from Fits, and should've just went with another option. I checked the USPS delivery today, no show. UPS and Fed Ex still have a couple hours or so. Either way, the package is late, no tracking number that was promised, no response of any kind for days. I held up my end and sent him the money, and now I'm furious.

Thanks for your time, and let me know if you need chat logs, attempted contact times/dates, the number he gave me last year when we were better friends that I tried calling and texting, etc.

Update: Kursah has received a tracking number for his items. Fits states there was a glitch in the initial shipment which caused a delay, and was not available to communicate with Kursah due to personal issues. Looks like things are being worked out.

Back in June 2010 I purchased the following from Cdawall:

2 Opteron 8346HE socket 1207 CPU
1 Opteron 2218 Ssocket 1207 CPU
1 Asus L1N64-SLI WS motherboard

Received the items as he advertised until I went to put everything together. The mobo and 2218 booted once and died after the initial start-up. I told him what was going on and he offered to replace the mobo from an ebay auction which I declined initially to see if I can continue to troubleshoot and figure out the issue is. After so many attempts I couldn't get the setup to boot. I even bought a FX-74 to rule out the CPU/BIOS mismatch and still could not get it to work. I told him that I would like to get a refund and then for a few months I could not get a reply from him. He finally PMd me last month and promised to refund me after he gets his ITR. So here we are over a month later and still no refund.

Has anything been done about this yet?

Mussels · Aug 15, 2011

Having trouble with the user Th0rn0.

He sold a PSU which seemed fine at first, but then displayed issues. Has not been responding to contact from the buyer (cheesy999), or from me to check if the item still has warranty.

Had a report about 'evlsnowman' not shipping goods, and failing to respond to PM's.
