Supporters Tackle Posted July 31, 2019 Supporters Share Posted July 31, 2019 tell me you paid with PayPal goods & services, & you've opened a claim ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poachers Posted August 1, 2019 Author Share Posted August 1, 2019 Unfortunately not with him being a member since 2010 and he suggested paypal but I dont have paypal I didn't see no alarm bells so went ahead with bank transfer ... done this a few times on this site and had no issue but obviously theres some bad apples in the bunch and it seems I've picked that one this time so just a warning to others if they use this seller ... I mean he could have a totally valid reason but at this present time I've yet to be informed of that and I'm hoping some one has dealt with him before and has his address etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supporters Rogerborg Posted August 1, 2019 Supporters Share Posted August 1, 2019 Sorry to hear this. I guess for future reference all we can say is: get on PayPal, and always insist on being sent a PayPal invoice listing the goods and postage. Best of luck.

Joshy-R Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Actually, the rifle has been sent and he as the tracking number. Please delete this post as it’s incorrect and slander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please delete this post as it’s incorrect and slander. out of interest, was this a case of you having issues at your end holding things up etc, or the buyer jumping the gun & being premature in calling foul play ?. Or a bit of both ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshy-R Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Well after it taking over a month for the buyer to actually pay for the item, it took me a while to make it into the post office to send the item And then once I gave the buyer the tracking number, apparently he was having an issue pulling up any tracking info, however it was checked on my end and couldn’t see an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Tackle Posted August 3, 2019 Supporters Share Posted August 3, 2019 Aah, one of those lol, I did have some doubts, hence why I asked the OP for a timeline breakdown, which he never replied to 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poachers Posted August 4, 2019 Author Share Posted August 4, 2019 If you read the start I said could be a totally valid reason if you have contact with some one before buying a item and then zero contact after paying for the item yes I jumped the gun but who wouldn’t and since this post was put up I had contact and a tracking number so can’t complain there like anything why why leave it to late to deal with the situation your better of gathering information right away if you feel something isn’t right your usually right I was told I’d have the tracking numbers 2 nights in a row then zero contact for days why wait a week to resolve the matter but yes I have a tracking number no item yet considering it was sent weds apparently via 48hrs another miss hap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's libel, but truth is an absolute defence to libel. 13 hours ago, poachers said: since this post was put up I had contact and a tracking number so can’t complain there Sounds like the post was true at the point where it was made. Just not the whole truth. Over a month to make payment? I'd have sacked that off and sold it elsewhere after a couple of days. Any comment on the veracity of that, poachers?

poachers Posted August 5, 2019 Author Share Posted August 5, 2019 Was agreed payment method said I’d pay so much over a period of time of 3 weeks but went over to 4 weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted August 7, 2019 Supporters Share Posted August 7, 2019 So: you were a bit late paying, then he was a bit late sending? Sounds like dishonours even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daytime, evening .... before or after probable collection times? 48 hours counts working days, but only really from being picked up in a van, so that may or may not be the same day If dropped off early enough on Wednesday then 48 hours make delivery due on Friday If after collection then the weekend does not qualify and delivery is due on Monday If delayed beyond the due 48 hours of 2 working days then there may be compensation available for late delivery ..... if you aren’t in to accept it then the clock has stopped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
