    Wtf... And they're asking me more 5 days for seller to send a return label! I should have open the claim straight with PayPal and instead of eBay. Wtf...

    Glad you got your money back, but wtf... Only PayPal now for claims.

    Doubtfull, I have a package in Transit from him. It took him a good old ten days for the tracking to go online. In between he racked 7 negatives, all had to do with scams but also about 4 positives. I personally just wait for my pearl necklace to arrive before filling.

    I honestly wish he was legit though.

    Thanks. From what I have seen with that one its a hit or miss. His feedback still shows even items worth 100$ arriving, while others are scams....Seems to me he tries to maintain a semblance of an honest seller. And the whole ordeal turns out to be a Russian rullete. :lol  At least after reading that all of you are getting your money back, I have confindce I wont turn out a sore loser in either case :D

    My package from longkfei88_90 just cleared customs in my town, so we shall soon see if it's beads or what I ordered. If it's what I ordered... I'll be pleasantly surprised. (I'll also have two of what I ordered, since I ordered a second which is on its way from a reputable seller I bought from once it was clear he had turned rogue, or started to.)

    If it's not, PP says they'll then elevate my claim.

    Starting to be concerned with my order from wzwu66886. Someone on here got their order from him the other day and it was fine, so fingers crossed.

    What's the benfit for these scams exactly? Surely people will get their money back eventually. Though when I get my box I'm probably gonna take some pics of the unboxing just in case I need to report this to Paypal and they decide to be shits.

    For the more experienced China buyers.. I have just received my tracking. How long before I should expect it to show an actual shipment? Do I track it on China post or usps?

    I have had tracking numbers not updated up to 6 days after receiving the number. Over 7 days it starts to be suspicious. USPS tracking should be enough, it updates fairly quickly.

    Okay, received a bad cube brawny from wuhanlipu today. Well packed in styrofoam and yellow tape. Took about 3 and a half weeks. Used a flash coupon during purchase. I did have to ask him for a tracking number, which he promptly provided. That reminds me: always ask sellers up front if they provide tracking numbers.

    It still has not reached ISC, so too early to tell. Seems a bit delayed, but nothing out of the ordinary yet.

    (reposting here from the Jaguar thread)

    Possible scam, but not sure.

    lolitaas is selling 5 Jaguar's on ebay:
    2017 Mastermind Creations Ocular Max Remix RMX-01 Jaguar in stock | eBay

    I bought one. Within a few hours it was marked as dispatched and a tracking number given. I waited over a week, but the tracking number remained invalid whenever I checked it.
    Contacted the seller, they said it wasn't in stock with their supplier, apologised and immediately refunded me.

    Listing is still up and working on ebay.

    Hey all quick qu. Ordered Hound/willy off Toy-Sir & credit to him, he had mis-advertised the item, was honest about it, apologised & took full responsibility.

    Anyway he has asked I 'close the item'. I tried cancelling the order but ebay says its too late to cancel.

    So what do I do to get a refund? Or does he action it from his end. Apologies im very new to ebay...

    Thanks

    (EDIT: full refund by Toy-Sir. Honest & quick to refund)

    Are you planning on leaving negative feedback, as far as I can see there is none, and It would help others if you did leave negative feedback to avoid same ploy.
