I sold a car port tent on e-bay and had the customer pay by PayPal. I wrote Marc and told him that I used metal pipe and cheaper to have new poles made up rather then shipping across country. I said I would the tent and att. And hold off on the poles until he got back in town. When I shipped the tent. I asked PayPal for a check. They said they could transfer the money to my checking account. I said fine.
P/p said they would send two small amounts to my bank (I use my broker Edward Jones) and in a few days just call your bank and place the in the e-mail form and send it back. Sounds simple.
Few days later I called and they gave me the amounts (I have a copy in my p/c if you would like a copy) and I opened p/p form and put the amounts in THREE different times and the form kept says the amounts were wrong! I triple checked the amounts and they were right. I faxed a copy of there form to them with the amounts.
Now I have to send them a copy of my bank statement and my drivers license with photo. There form was wrong and I don't need all this b/s! I e-mailed them my brokers name and 800 number to call them and verify the amounts. There answer was " we can't do that!". Then I sent them a copy of the ledger from Edward Jones with the amounts on it. There answer " we can't open att. Sent to use!"
I then got in touch with e-bay and I was getting the same double talk and rubber stamp answers as p/p.
Here is the bottom line. 1. Marc wants the poles. 2. I asked him to not pay p/p until I get his money from p/p. 3. I won't ship poles until I receive my money. 4. I won't pay e-bay what I owe them until I get paid.
