did I just get F******

[blown88gt]

I bought a HD Loader for my PS2 off EBAY. I used Paypal to buy it. This is my first purchase useing paypal. I had my money withdrawn to pay for my item. Well that was the on the 24th and I just got an email tonight from Ebay saying that item had Violated some kinda thing and was taken off and I was not obligated to pay. Well I already paid and I just wanted to know what was up and all. I went to Ebay and all records of it are gone I have my records from paypal though. I sent an email to him asking what had happened and all. What else can I or do I need to do

wow, you got focked. 1 of the many reasons I do not buy off of ebay

 

[j_granato33]

ebay sucks its all one big pile of lies. you just cant trust people anymore.

 

[SVT4ME]

Thats why I refuse to buy it if I cant put my hands on it. Nothing but pricks and dicks trying to bang ya. Yeah you save all this money till u get banged. Try getting with paypal, ebay or just call your local law

 

[blown88gt]

the thing about it is He did not pull it out EBAY did that is what has me all confused. I have his name and Email address.

If you have a record of it coming out of your account and its through ebay...You "should" be able to get your money back,,,Ebay and Paypal are joined at the hip....if you get screwed by someone thats not on Ebay and you use Paypal your up a creek....

Ya if you didnt get what you payed for you should get your money back.

I just got an email tonight from Ebay saying that item had Violated some kinda thing and was taken off and

no, you got an email from the dude ripping you off. ebay would have pulled the auction BEFORE it closed. check the email headers, I bet its NOT from ebay.

that is the header I got



EDIT:
I responded to it and got an email saying it was an auto reponsponder and a long explanation about why they did something

 

[Scott_98us@yaho]

forward the email you got to [email protected], they will verify if they sent it or not and what you can do. People can fake the ebay headers, there are a lot of scams on there, some honest people

 

[blown88gt]

thanks I will do that

joined at the hip?? Ebay OWNS PAYPAL

 

[Captain Steve]

When you paid with Paypal, did you pay with your Credit Card, or by withdrawl from your bank account?

If it was with your credit card, you may have some built in protection.

Well thats about as joined as you can get. right????... ;-)

ebay sucks donkey balls

 

[theDRIVER]

to top it off ebay owns paypal. f*cking greedy bastards not only screw you with their fees they thought they should screw with paypal too. i liked it when paypal didn't charge you for certain services.....

Ebay seems so risky but the money you can save using it is almost worth it. I bought two brand new floor speakers for half the price I could find them at any store. They are sitting in my room right now filling my ears with music, I couldn't be more happy with them or the money I saved. I will say though I was pretty nervous up until the moment they were sitting in my doorway from the delivery guy.

IMO if your not saving a significant amount of money than ebay is not worth the hassle. Also ALWAYS talk to the person/company you are buying from on the phone. Never buy without actually talking to the seller, and asking them many details about the future transaction.

I'm an ebay addict. I pretyt much only buy from buss. on there tho. You could be screwed, but might not. Ebay will end an auction for a billion different reasons. I had one of mine ended early simple because in the payment options I listed that if the buyer wanted to use paypal I would need 3% on top to cover the fees.

 

[LBguy]

Only buy with sellers with a very good rating!

I think the HDloader was banned by Sony no too long after it came out. That could be the problem with your purchase. Not sure though, with all the imitation crap that sells on there, why would they care?
