I sold an item to nzimm06, and eveything went well. He paid ASAP, and I gave him great feedback. (He was a first buyer) He selected UPS Ground and a day after he recieved the item he sent me an e-mail. He said the item arrived damaged, and as soon as I refund his money, he would send me pics so I can put in a claim with UPS and get my money back. He also said he would also leave me feedback and the case would be closed. LOL. The first thing that came to my mind was "what an idiot". "He thinks I'm stupid." So I replied. I told him to send me pics first, then I would refund his money, and deal with UPS myself.

I deal with UPS claims at work, so I know the process. I needed those pics for proof.

He never responded or sent pics. I sent a second reply and I received no response.

So the moral of the story, if you see this guy bidding on your stuff then I would keep my situation in mind. He may do the same to you. The item wasn't Neo Geo related, but I know people here sell items other than Neo stuff.

Should I remove his feedback, or should I give him negative feedback?

Or should I leave it alone, (Since I got paid) Incase he decided to retaliate and leave me negative feedback.?

What would some of you do?

I wouldn't say leave him negative because you still don't know if the item was damaged or not. I'd say neutral would be fair enough. Up to you though.

As it stands you haven't lost anything (am I right?)

Is there a chance he can try to screw you for the money or complain via ebay?

If not, chalk it up to experience.

I've never dealt with someone like this. Not sure what he can do, other than leave me negative feedback. I have a feeling he is lying, because if this happened to me I would send pics ASAP and get my money back. I received his e-mail last Thursday. It's been a full week.

I did get paid.

Do NOT leave him any feedback until he leaves you some... this way if he dings you... you can nail him back... It sux, but some people are real a$$es...

Hi, you'll have to wait and or give him a time frame say no more than 3 weeks. I don't think he'll purposely smash an item and pretend UPS did it for a refund. If he is some how trying to scam you well he picked the wrong guy. :kekeke:

Victorias Secret Umbrella?

:rolleyes:

Yes, if your the buyer, whats taking you so long to send pics. If you wait too long then I cna't make the claim with UPS. UPS only gives you so many days to make a claim.

No, I'm not him. I searched for that guys name on Ebay, he only had 1 feedback. And it was for an Umbrella.

:spock:
