crossy 666 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 I brought a PS4 of ebay this week and I arranged to pick it up tonight at the home address the seller gave me. So 30 mile later I get to the address to find its an empty house that was for sale and been empty for some time. My question is I paid for the PS4 by paypal I would be hoping to get my money back from them so my question is what is the schame that I am I missing?

Guest rimotu66 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Maybe a newby scammer who has yet to learn how to do it properly, as long as you did not pay as a gift you should be ok and get your cash back. Have you an item number so we can have a look and see who the 'scammer' is? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aris Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 You must go through the eBay dispute resolution process. Don't enter into a conversation with this person outside of ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest rimotu66 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Why pay if picking it up . I wondered that but sometimes if you want something you pay as soon as winning the auction to have the seller hold it for you until you can collect.

delburt0 Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 If I was selling I would say hold on to your money till you try and your happy , alarm bells would ring if someone if you have never met and do not no wanted paying if you where meeting them in a day or 2 The godsend is you paid with paypal so should get your money back in a few weeks just have to jump through a few hoops.

Psyxologos Posted November 7, 2014 Report Share Posted November 7, 2014 Probably a hijacked account, as the two addresses are different. It makes no difference to you, you will get your money through paypal anyway. Just open a dispute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
