Just my opinion here but you're trying to trash his rep where rep in a small community goes a long way.
Massive over reaction leaving neg feedback when you have a refund.
You've lost money on the currency conversion. Such is life when the financial institutions make money from everyone. Take the loss on the chin and quit whining as shit happens far worse than losing some cash over a deal gone wrong.
He's apologized for lying but didn't want to hurt your feelings by saying he didn't fully trust you.
What more do you want? You're just making this worse
Understand now?
If you want to call it a white lie it's okIf giving a refund is punishable with negative feedback on here I’m on the wrong forum, oh and a little white lie to protect the buyers feelings, well I’m sure God will judge me for that one on judgement day.
MAYBE leaving neutral feedback would've been appropriate.ZX
Thanks you for you input
If that's your approach to doing business more power to you
My understanding of a feedback system is to share your experience with the community so that they can have a more informed decision
If my statements here are false thechop can point them out and defend himself
Not every experience ends in a positive one sadly
We can't just report on the positives and leave out the negatives
MAYBE leaving neutral feedback would've been appropriate.
Negative feedback on these forums is reserved for scammers, or folks who deliberately and maliciously cause issues, failing to ship for months and months and lying about it, etc.
Negative feedback isn't for slightly lackluster communication and issues stemming from third-party payment processors
MAYBE leaving neutral feedback would've been appropriate.
Transfer money into your wise account (from your actual account not credit card as that may classify as a cash advance) then pay via paypal in the sellers currency. On your wise account you can do instant currency exchanges at way better rates than your bank/credit card.
ExactlyI think that this sounds better. The transaction was cancelled, nobody was scamming anyone and the one who took the money was PayPal and hold it until the exchange rate was worse. The new PayPal policy change has caught us all by surprise, and when people see something off, they often just run away.
I hate PayPal, we are all paying the consequences of scammers doing tricky things to cheat PayPal, which forces them to enable absurds policies and T&C that apply to everyone, honest people too. If you can use something else, please do it. I've used Wise and it works great.
PayPal was not the one who made the choice at all though. Thechop held the money for 19 of the 21 days and made the decision to refund. He could have refunded immediately, or in 2 days, 6, or not refunded at all and sent the item 2 days later. The time was 100% determined by the seller here.The transaction was cancelled, nobody was scamming anyone and the one who took the money was PayPal and hold it until the exchange rate was worse.
It has been a real thorn in the side. But 20 minutes on the phone to educate yourself on the changes and it's not that unmanageable, I don't think. Just makes for a garbage first month. Our business account went from 1900 available monthly to 27000 available monthly in just 30 days. Now it's back to effectively unlimited.The new PayPal policy change has caught us all by surprise, and when people see something off, they often just run away.
The buyer has repeatedly said "How can we make this right?", "What are our options here?", etc. This is a silly comment since the buyer is not the one unwilling to work things out.But making a fuss out of this siituation could backfire on you too as a buyer. Maybe just kiss and makeup with him?
Sure, but it doesn't matter. It was agreed upon by both parties involved so that's not even part of this equation.buyer could have paid with friends and family with a bit of trust. Would have got most of his money back with a refund minus currency conversion fees and still blamed the seller.
Accept the terms and conditions of the sale and accept the risk involved.
This is ludicrous, truly.buyer could have paid with friends and family with a bit of trust. Would have got most of his money back with a refund minus currency conversion fees and still blamed the seller.
Accept the terms and conditions of the sale and accept the risk involved.
Buying with friends and family or accepting there are risks in life and you don’t always get exactly what you want?This is ludicrous, truly.
