Does anybody got any other suggestions? I am stumped.
Hi, I usually keep my opinions to myself, as you can see by my # of posted replies. I use paypal, and have for years. I sell on ebay, and buy all kinds of things from all over the place, and occasionally you run into a snag.
Most of paypal's dispute resolution system is automated. If you open a dispute, it just sends an automated email that opens the lines of comunication between the two of you that tells him to check his account for the dispute, and he should deal with it. He'll see it.. and he get's that disputed amount of $ frozen in his paypal account while the duspute is open, which, can bring out a resolution as well.. as that money is now tied up for him as long as he drags his feet on dealing with it.
Just some CYA advice (cover your ass)..
-when you open the dispute, don't mention anything "weed" related in any emails to this guy, (just imagine you bought "ass cream" and don't want people to know about it... say "ass cream" instead of "seeds" in an email and then say to yourself.. "yes, product, or item I purchased" sounds better and hits the point, cause he knows what you bought. Nothing about seeds, just say shit like"my order", "the items I purchased".
If he puts it in an email, don't reply directly to that email, either start a fresh one, or reply to an older one.. Start new ones, so if it ever comes up you can say.. "he may of sent that email.. but I don't know what he's referring to in that email, and did not reply".. and don't reply to any old emails you have from him- as if he didn't save any of them, you have nothing that says what you bought BUT you do have a paypal record of you sending him money for an item you purchased AND you didn't recieve the item you paid for. WHAT you bought has nothing to do with anything- and if asked I personally would tell them
"it has no bearing what the item is, as to whether the terms and conditions of the transaction were met, it does matter that you paid for an item that you did not recieve, like I said, it could be something like "ass cream" that you don't want other people to know about ..so I want a refund." ... or similar.
Another thought to ponder while deciding what to do--- YOU think YOU don't want paypal to know you are buying seeds??.... HE doesn't want paypal to know HE'S SELLING them... just a thought, that, if you need to, may want to remind him of too... they may be interested in forwarding his name and bank account information to the proper authorities if paypal found outabout it.. maybe..I'm just sayin'..
I am not now, nor ever suggesting you rat out anyone by the way!!... What I am saying, is that he most likely won't want paypal to know what the items in question is either, as he has something to lose in that too.
Hope I helped, I had alot to say, I just blazed a big fatty and I am in my "fight the power" mood... peace.
