Ok so I sold something on a facebook group, Power Rangers Armored Red Ranger SH Figuarts.. And I sent the item out Monday.. and the guy was suppose to get it today and I checked the shipping and it says undeliverable address... I wrote the address EXACTLY as the guy told me and it matches on paypal.. What is there to do? Can he go pick it up at the post office in the morning?
 
Hopefully if they haven't shipped it back to you. It also depends on why it was undeliverable. It doesn't always mean that the address was wrong. Traffic, construction, etc. I know my postman did that once when he forgot to deliver a package of mine.
 
Well I talked to the guy and it sounds like he is trying to scam me... Asking for gas $$ to drive down to the post office? How is that my fault it it was an undeliverable address.... And claims he wants a refund now.... I guess I will wait it out until he either gets it or I get it returned to me....
 
It should be sent back to you. Refund him minus the shipping cost and tell him to get bent.


Yeah that's what I'm gonna do this guy is trying to get a refund before I even have the package back in my hands.... Um NO...
 
Asking for gas money to drive to the post office is literally the dumbest thing I've ever heard in the collectibles marketplace.

How is that any different to not being home when the delivery man arrives and needing to pick up at the post office later?
Does he live 100 miles from his nearest Post Office or something?

I have no clue... I even looked up the address and its a house... So idk why it was un-deliverable... Guess will just wait it out I guess...
 
Could be that you wrote it down on the box wrong, or the label got damaged on its way there.

Maybe but I double checked it at the post office, and the lady told me it was un-deliverable so i pulle dout my phone and double checked it... And it was the same address the guy told me...
 
This is what the guy said to me.. I may have accidently wrote down the wrong address but I'm about 90% sure I double checked the address... and now he wants 53.00 for the refund when he only paid 36.00 total um no....


Barrett Chance:Just left post office u put the wrong address down and its being sent back ,u can call and confirm urself but its legit. I want my money back now man thats its no more games u have wasted my time and cost me 20 bucks n gas to go dam poat office to see it was ur mistake

Barrett Chance:Its comming back to u left early this morning....so I either want 2 figures or 53 bucks for my gas and figure I payed for
3 minutes ago

Daniel Taz Williams: i'm not paying u back 53.00.. I just paying you back what u spent for the figure....
 
Refund less shipping sounds just. He could have saved himself the gas by just calling and finding out what's the status of the package. Hell, he could have just tracked it. He deciding to drive down was his choice.
Maybe I'm just too easy, but mistakes happen. Can't completely read someone just from typed words, but he sounds angry. What does he mean with "thats its no more games?" This is going to sound old, but I have issues with folks who have trouble with basic spelling and sentence structure.
 
Here is the whole convo I had with him....

Daniel Taz-Williams
i just checked shipping and it said undelivery address... i shipped it to the EXACT address that you gave me

Tell this teenager to piss off and learn how to spell. He's out $33. :cuckoo:Not the end of the world. Sounds like buyers remorse and he needs the money for something else he bought. Save all your communications from him and contact the Post Office yourself if you haven't already.

Yeah from the looks of it the package is on the way back to me so we shall see if I really did write the address down wrong... But I have my doubts....
 
Wait, so the mistake was actually yours? :)

Even so, I'm still not sure why he thinks $20 to drive to a post office is a reasonable request. Total *********.
 
Well the package got delivered yesterday and the guy finally shut up

What? I thought that tool said it was being sent back to you? What an asshat. If you don't mind, can you share his eBay name so I can block him? I'm glad everything worked out in your favor.

edit: never mind. Just saw it wasn't sold on eBay.
 
I don't send anything to the US without tracking. It's just not worth it. I know US based sellers always complain about people in other countries, but I'm sorry, 99% of internet sales/buy scammers are from the US. I've never had issues with anyone from Europe or South America or even Russia. But in the US?. I've been doing online sales full-time for 8 years now and thankfully the problem hasn't been an epidemic or anything. The strangest thing? More often than not, if you're dealing with a ****** bag, their name is going to be Matthew. That's been my experience and I would never have imagined such a pattern, but I kid you not.

Man, good thing you held firm. By the way the guy was pressuring you to pay now, sounds like he was trying to scam you out of the figure and money. That's why he miraculously picked up the package when he saw that he couldn't get more out of you. He probably had socks coming back your way or something.
