A problem with UK seller (long dull story) Empty A problem with UK seller (long dull story)

Post by Dark Sol Sat Dec 27, 2008 3:37 pm

It's kinda a long problem and i almost gave up. Looks like i need to find where the hell is this guy and who he is..
I purchased a Heroes of Might and Magic Complete Collection for PC about half year ago from this person:

Simon Mercer
37 charminster avenue
Bournemouth, Dorset Bournemouth
United Kingdom

http://myworld.ebay.com/binkybournemouth

It costed me about 100$.
I never recieved the item.

after a month i got this:

"
Hiya

Oh dear, I am sorry you haven’t received it yet. Im surprised as it was ages
ok. Unfortunately I am away on work and am currently on a train on the way
to Scotland for the next week. I will get back to you with the information
as soon as I return if that is ok with you – I do have postal tracking
numbers for the UK to point of exit, I just don’t have them to hand!

Apologies again and I promise to get back to you as soon as I return next
weekend.

Many thanks
Simon
"

bullshit...

next week:

"Hi THERE

Yes – and now I know what is wrong! It is stuck at HMRC in Portsmouth,
apparently I put the wrong postage cost on it, so much for paypal – I have
requested the item be returned to me at my home address and then I will send
it out via UPS or special mail so it reaches you in the quickest possible
time.

I trust this is satisfactory and you can hang on. I will send you a cheque
for 5 pounds as well as a gesture of good will for your patience at this
time"

and then

"I know...i have never sent mail that far so before and didn’t know things
like this could happen!

I will put a partial refund on once I am home, im at a friends at the moment
so will do it later on.


Again, please accept my apologies and rest assured I will send it as soon as
it arrives back to me - which I am hoping will be the early part of this
week.

I will let you know how/when and give you the tracking number from the start
this time so you can watch where it goes too!
"

about two weeks later:

"Hiya

Sorry for the delay - I have been away on business again, and in 2 weeks am
due for surgery as I have a tumour on my face.

The good news is that the parcel has been returned - its in Poole awaiting
collection.I will arrange for this to be picked up Monday. I will then start
the process again and send it out to you.

In the meantime, I haven’t yet given you a small partial refund as I don’t
know how to - do you know how to do this ? If so, I can do it, but it wont
be done until Thursday as I am going for scans etc on Tuesday and Wednesday
- Monday is already looking rather hectic for me!

Ok - hope thats all satisfactory -and sorry again its taking so long,
nothing more annoying when you have to wait for things to arrive. Hopefully
this time it will all go smoothly!

Kindest regards

Simon Mercer"


about two months since purchase

"Hi Mate

Well, by now I expect you must be furious ! Thank you for your patience. I
went into hospital for some pre-admission checks prior to my operation next
week and ended up staying in for 3 days! Just got around to looking at
email, though I have to say whilst laying there I thought about you and
thought "OH MY DAYS! HURRY UP!"

Any how - it is now wrapped and either today (its POURING with rain and I
don’t drive) or if all else fails MONDAY it will be sent out. Once back, I
will give you the numbers.

I have decided to give you a 15.00 refund now as it is such a long wait, and
you have been very patient. I will arrange to do this at the same time I
dispatch it. It is very well packed and all clearly marked this time (it was
last time really) so I am very hopeful you will receive it soon.

Just wanted to say thank you for the patience here. Its a bit of a tough
time with the operation looming and so sudden - forgive me if I don’t reply
next week from Wednesday onwards as I am in hospital from then.

Any how - fingers crossed and you will receive it soon.

Kindest Regards


Simon"


and this one in OCTOBER (like... 3 months later)

"Hi Mate

Im sorry for the LONG delay - had to go back into hospital as major surgery required orally and have not been online or doing anything admin wise for weeks. Out of hospital for 3 days now and just got your message.

Its still here by the looks of things - my partner was meant to have sent it for me but it appears he has not - I assumed he would have done hence the previous conversation. Top tip, never assume!

I will take it myself to the post office tomorrow and will now, as a gesture of good will refund 50% to your account.

Im sorry this transaction hasnt been smooth. It would appear that oral cancers are often not diagnosed correctly and it has been a nightmare, though this should not have impacted on you. Please accept my apologies and expect the 50% return by the end of the week.

Regards

Simon"

and the final one in NOVEMBER:

"Hiya

Sorry for the delay in replying – poorly boy again – however, it has been
sent, about 14 days now ?

Hope all is well – Im not around now until 1st December as going for
training for 2 weeks – I trust it will arrive by then! I have forgotten to
do your credit, I will sort that as promised asap.

Cheers buddy
Simon"

cheers buddy. Go fuck yourself lazy asshole. And give me my money back cause i never got anything.
Any opinions? Can somebody call this dude and find out WTF is goin on?? Is he dead?
I never got any refunds from him nor the item itself.

Roflmao,sorry didnt mean to laugh at it but couldnt help.this guy is a real pro.

this happens to everyone once in a while though i havent received 2 returned games since 1 year now.i just marked it as writeoff. i hate people who keep you waiting,and then have the balls to tell you lies over and over again, believe me this guy will never send you anything, hes a @#$^$%^$%&@#%.

ive dealt with another guy like this although not on ebay,everyday he told me "tomorrow" for i dunno 2 month or so.
so in the end i just told him to fo in his face.

if you can claim it back from paypal please do.

oh btw i was wondering can ppl actually get tumour on their face?

Well and he did. I was too polite guy..untill now.
I thought the dude really had problems and was really ill.
But looks like people enjoy to improvise a lot and tell you all kind of fictional stories.

dude, after hundreds and hundreds of transaction, I understood the lesson.
no stuff AND no available online tracking number after one month > paypal complaint whatever bullshit the guy is telling me (or not) via email.
I ALWAYS ask and pay more if necessary for an online tracking number so I have no regrets acting this way now

Yes, him. He continues to say "don't worry it will get there" but I still don't see it. The deadline for filing a claim was here so I did it. I will close it when (if) it gets here.
