    I doubt this scammer sent anything at all. Except maybe a tiny box of ko jelly beans.
    Skip eBay, contact PayPal immediately and open a dispute.

    I suggest no one buys from zuochundong114. My "item" has been sitting at a regional distribution for 17 days now. Since I bought it with a eBay gift card, can't contact PP since it doesn't show up on my PP account as a purchase and have to deal with eBay. However, the arrival date for shipment is February 1st so eBay can't do shit about it till that date passes.

    Zuochundong114 price for FT Hydra was only $3 cheaper than Baba at the time so it wasnt a case of price being too good to be true.

    I made the transaction using an eBay gift card. Should I still contact PayPal?

    Can I have help to verify these items from the seller on the good list? even though he's on it they seem suspicious. thanks. Here's the post. Would you or anyone mind clicking on these links? we could have probably forgotten about his seller since those prices seem a bit too good to be true

    If they seem suspicious to you, then go with a different seller. What exactly are you trying to buy?

    This was the last experience I had with him/her:


    They did readily refund me, but that experience didn't really leave me itching to use them again. I haven't steered clear of them so much as other sellers I use more regularly have had the few items I purchased since then.

    I think PayPal handles all transactions regardless of the source of funds.
    But you can ask eBay first. Send them a message.

    If you don't use a payment in the form of a credit/debit PP doesn't get a fee from it so I don't think they do anything about it.

    Or you can call EBay over the phone and speak to a live customer service agent that can quickly assist you.

    Well Quietus arrived yesterday! Packed in the usual styrofoam casing. Box was in great condition. Took a bit longer to get here, but all is well. :)

    Wow, you ordered from
    zuochundong114 on 12/13/18 and you just received it now, over a month later?? That's way too long. Are you in the USA? I am and 14 days is usually the standard for me for in-stock Ebay shipments from China.

    Yeah :( . At this point I'm just happy it arrived and it's what I ordered. Probably won't be ordering from them again though.

    Yeah I’m going through the same situation as we speak...guy has a listing saying it’s INSTOCK and it’s not :(  I’ve been using EBay for 12 years now and over the past few years things have gotten far worse in regards to international packages...I think I’ll have to wait from now on until one of our USA connections get it or go with SHOW Z....Just wish EBay would do something about this sort of thing

    Same seller? If so sounds like one to avoid... I’ve got a few like Baba I’ll go back to but I’m getting leery of the lesser known ones...
