Well after years of bill burger know as bbu97159656tcy on ebay screwing me he finally scams me in a bold way.
This is the primary thing he would do. I would accumulate multiple won items from him over his 30 day window period. I would then pay him with a money order because I was screwed by paypal, but thats a different story. I would print out a nice list with item numbers, names, double spaced, big font, bolded on a single piece of paper and explained for him to double check but for some reason he aways screwed up by forgetting to pack a item, usually the expensive one.
Instead of just shipping the item he forgot out seperately on his dollar because after all he was the one who made the shipping error, he forced me to wait to pack it with next next round of outstanding items I won from him causing a repeating endless loop.
Ok, this is how he scammed me. I bought 3 broke 1 slots from him. One was as described, one was a bait and switch because it was a totally different one slot with different problem and one did not come at all, which is part of his endless loop scam. I was way past tired of him at this point. I decided to break this loop by canceling 2 current auctions I had going with him so he could not say I put it in the next shipment. I then ask him to either give me the exact 1 slot I won or give me a refund and to ship the other 1 slot he left out.
Now here the part your not going to believe he offer me a $10 refund on the 1 slot that was wrong and made no mention of the other he did not ship. In reality I paid $25 for the incorrect 1 slot he sent and on top of that he wanted me to ship it back on my dime which would run me $10, do the math there.
I explain this to him about firstly the incorrect value of the item, him playing senile about the missing item and lastly the joke of me paying for his mistake. He then sends me this email.
forget i am done dont bid on my items thanks for the previous business good luck to you
So there you have it, I'm shit out of luck. If I neg him, with all the items I bought from him that he has not left feedback for which is 20 or so, he can neg me for every single one and effective suspend my account by default.
