Ebay scammer!!!! Read!!!! Must read!!!
I was shopping around on EBAY last week when I found a guy with perfect feeback selling 7 vinylmation pins. I put my max bid up to 35.00 figuring that 5 bucks a pin would be about right.
Well I forgot all about the auction and I won the items for 3.75 cents?!? I was VERY hesitant of paying and having them shipped. Simply because why was nobody bidding them up? Scammer? I went against my gut and paid 5.50 with shipping for 7 pins. It sounds so bad and it only gets worse.
I get them yesterday and open them up this morning. ALL COUNTERFEITS! I immediately sent the guy a message and told him either A. He is scamming people out of money who do not know any better or B. He somehow has no freaking clue about these pins.
The usual answer is A. Well needless to say we have been going BACK and FORTH on this issue today. He offered a refund BUT I would have to pay to ship them to him. That would be 2.50. To get back 3.25. So for .75 cents I could return the pins.
Now he refused to pay for my return shipping SOOOO I have these options.
1. Contact Ebay and report him. Send pins back and get only 75 cents back.
2. Eat the whole 5 bucks and give him NEG feedback and WARN all others of his BS.
3. ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY OTHER OPTIONS? or ADVICE?
I realize this all could have been avoided by me realizing that this was way to good to be true. I am very sad...not so much about the 5 bucks but the fact the pins are useless to me now!
Maybe I can melt down all of them including my other scrapper and make something out of them... UGHH!
