ah wow this is good news then :-( lucky i sent the payment not as a gifty but as goods so have just opened a dispute. but out of intrest for ones whpo have payed by a gift can a dispute be opened? ether for not turning up or faulty item?

[teamxray]

if you sent it as a gift you CANNOT CLAIM as you sent the person a gift paypal rules i'm affraid

[ianhaye]

im glad as i heard this and this is why i send as goods and put a lil extra ontop to cover fees, have just opend a dispute so wil see what happens

[teamxray]

if you sent it as goods you still may NOT CLAIM as paypay cannot see what you have brought ie if you brought an item on ebay they can see the transaction with descriptions and postage so there some come back if the sale went pear shape sorry to say buddy

[ianhaye]

yes i understand but the payment was for goods and nothing has been receved, i know they cannot see what it was for but im sure paypal works on the bas that a item has to be proven to be delivered to the adress?

[shanks]

Far as i am concerned whether you pay via gift only effects what paypal can do

Otherwise i can demosntrate offer, consideration and acceptance has occureed which forms a contract under common law and should be suffiicent to go to court - of course i do need contact details for B4 pete

[teamxray]

you can say you accept the item under common law but then the seller can also say i changed my mind not selling now and did you provide him with an address and contact number in the first sale if not then the common law will not stand as this is deemed to be the contract thats why when i buy second hand i ask sell for all there detail ie addy,home number and mobile number and in other cases a different email then you have some come back then with the police

[ianhaye]

hes online now so maybe he will read this and would like to reply anmd let us know whats happening ?

I have been called away on an emergency, and cannot access the forum account until i return home, unfortunatley, my work comes first. This particular item was however posted days ago, I will upload tracking information later today.
The buyer(s)? have my email and have not tried to contact me through this medium for an update.

its a sham,that on our profiles it says when we last visted our profiles and i have been checking as waiting for replys from him everyday and he has been on at least once each day and even delted messages on his profile wqall from me

so he cant get on the forums but he is able to sign in and delte the messges and not reply, seems like a really nice onist bloke
