I would never do business with you.

Where did it say that he had used the funds from the transaction?

He transferred it out of his PP account before ever sending anything, thus using the funds from the transaction

I saw it and wasn't worried about it. I used my credit card, so I never have to worry about not collecting.
I was a little suspicious when he didn't send the DC when he said he would, then said he misplaced it. He also asked for more money to buy more.
I could tell after just a couple messages that he was just a kid.
I did confirm that he informed paypal to allow a full refund, and he states that he shipped HALF the dvds...although I am not sure i believe that either![]()
Like I said, i really am not worried about it, and he seems more concerned than I am. I know I won't lose any money. My only concern is for others who may be dealing with him that don't use credit cards.
I think everything will work out fine, because he came clean and he seems nervous to do what's right![]()
Sly said:You know, I get the issues here and totally understand...BUT, that is EXACTLY why there is the "must send first" tag on this guy.
I realize hofautos wasn't concerned, but clearly there should have been a reason to be.
I'm not taking boomets side, because what he did was wrong, but I hate to say it, this wouldn't have been an issue if hofautos had let him send first and THEN paid.
And if other than this (again sorry, partially the buyers fault), annoying PM's are the biggest concern, I think we've got bigger "bad dealers" out in the world that we should focus on not dealing with.

To be honest, i see that "must send first" many times, and just assumed that everyone gets that when they are new or haven't made a trade yet. Is that icon only used for people that have had problems?
I just know from experience that if paypal won't pay, the credit card will....and I learned that on items a lot bigger than $40. I personally never worry anymore using paypal and AMEX.

And that's fine, but my issue here is that if he had sent first, this would be a case of:
"He took too long to send"
And that issue is MUCH different (and a lesser issue that I think most traders can deal with) than:
"He took my money, and then lied"
The icon is there for a reason, and buyers and traders need to adhere to it.

I never said he took my money and lied. I never accused him of anything. I just warned others to use caution when dealing with him.
If I want to send paypal before I recieve an item, that is my perogative. I will decide my own risks.
I still would like to know if that icon is ONLY given to people with known problems? If I knew that was the case, I may "observe" it more closely.

I got 9 PM's in 30 minutes asking for me to add things to the deal, even when we already completed it, and I packaged it up.
He is a complete waste of your time.
Be extremely careful even posting in his threads.
