I need to post this, recently I bought an item from a fellow drum (from another forum) He asked that I submit payment as a "gift" so he did not get charged a PP fee. so I did. Its been over a week, no tracking #, no communication, no response from my emails, and now his phone # is dis connected. so I went to request a cancellation on PP< and I get an automated message saying "You cannot request to cancell this transaction because it is not for goods or services but was a gift" I smell a dead horse thought I'd let others know about this, I tried to be a nice guy and this is what happens
In my opinion, this person needs to be contacted by email and if there is no response, they need to be outed. I know some people don't like it, but you should tell the people in the forum you did this transaction in what kind of dirt bag you are dealing with.
To me this is no different than stealing. Being dishonest as a seller and/or buyer disgusts me. I've heard many a story of people paying not getting product/takes forever/accidentally shipping wrong product and buyer not co-operating/product damaged, etc., etc. This, to me is, for lack of a better term, is a "bully factor" for people like this. This is how the make themselves feel adequate or better than others by stealing or being dishonest.
