I sold an item to a dude living in France via ebay and he paid the item money and the basic shipping money

I e-mailed me several times saying the shipping money he paid doesnt have no tracking, signed for or insurance

he has not mailed me back which makes me wonder if he has an accident etc

He lives in 57400 SARREBOURG MOSELLE area, I have called him on the number ebay gave but the phone number is dead and was registered back in 2003

Is there anybody who lives in the area who could go to his house and find out if he lives there and maybe leave a letter if he is not in

I will pay for someone train fare or gas money and I would give the person all the details I have

What makes you think he had an accident? Is this some kind of cover up? ;)

A Frenchman purchased Lonewolf's cart on Ebay and didn't let him know whether he received it or not. Lonewolf tried calling Frenchman to no avail. Lonewolf is now offering to pay someone to go knock on the Frenchman's door to make sure he is alive.

I certainly hope you marked the full value of the saturn so he gets slapped with a $1,000 customs fee, which in turn he will add to the price when he resells it for $6000 frogs.

Wow, I never even knew such a Saturn existed. Looks cool, but that price is crazy.

lol, yeah... last I heard those hitachi saturns were worth $1,000 US. And even that's fucking retarded.

The problem is they are totally useless outside of Japan since none of the functions work. At best you would have a Saturn that has a lcd screen to go into your car. Then again you could do that for much cheaper with a regular saturn and a lcd screen.

Person 1: "What's that huge black thing in your car?"
Person 2: "Oh that's my Navi Saturn, it's RARE!!!"
Person 1: "Navi Saturn huh, can you search for the nearest In-N-Out, please?"
Person 2: "Oh the Navigator functions don't work outside of Japan"
Person 1: "Then why do you have it in your car?"
Person 2: "It's RARE!!!"
Person 1: "How much did you pay for that?"
Person 2: "$5000"
Person 1: "Go seek help you idiot"

I still would like to own that Navi, but not at those prices.

That's cause shipping with the full works (tracking, signed for and insurance) is about £190 odd with the weight and stuff PLUS I lost out on £100 on Paypal fees AND about £80 ebay fees that are still to come

SO SORRY that I didn't want more of my profits to get eaten, so if I did free shipping then I would have lost out just under £400 in total :scratch:

Just for the record, my 10kg DESR-7700 PSX box cost about $90 USD to ship from Japan to the US to Germany. Ten kilos. 190 GBP to ship a SMALLER THAN NORMAL Saturn is either nuts, or stupid. I'd suggest that either you look into a new way to ship, or that you are trying to put one over.

Also...complaining about eating eBay/pp fees? Really? Remind us again how much that $200 hunk of plastic sold for again? Riiiiight. I'm just not feelin' the sympathy here, bud.
