How to wind me up.......
04. Aug 2006 at 14:22

Fisrtly, place an advert on Ebay offering an exhaust system for the Omega. Make sure you give the impression you are in Birmingham.
Then, let me win the auction with a bid of £82
Now let me send you my PayPal payment with full details of my car.
Then you can send me an email after 3 days asking what car I have.
I will then send you an email which will bounce back
Then I will contact you thorugh Ebay with the said details.
After a couple more days I can ask if you have sent it, at which point you can ask me what car I have again.
I can then send a stroppy email telling you that this is the 3rd time I have told you the model. Said email can then bounce back.
I will then contact Ebay and ask for your contact details.
This is when it becomes obvious that you are in fact in Germany and your number does not exist.
However, after sending you yet another message through Ebay you finally send the item....
....which takes 5 days to get here from POLAND!!!!!
Now, the icing on the cake. Ignore all the emails telling you my car is an Estate and send a f***ing salooooooooooon exhaust, which obviously does not fit.

Now lets see how helpful PayEnemy are!!!!!!

DON'T ANYONE say a F***ing word!!!!! Cry

bearer of bad news Ronnie

If you have recieved any item - and the seller can prove it with a tracking number Paypal wont refund Sad

I found this out the hard way - technically if your sent an empty box paypal are happy you recieved something.

On the other hand why dont you list the ebay seller details so we can all avoid them. Also its possible to be suspended if a seller does not have accurate contact details.

Not going to get you the item you paid for i know Sad

PayPal will refund if the item is 'significantly different.....' Which it is. In any case I have a short fuse with this type of muppet and believe me, if I have to I will fly to Poland and throw it through his f****ng window! Now, what kind of feedback do you think the richard-cranium will be getting from yours truly?

By the way, my favourite reply so far is the blank one. Actually made me smile! Thanks for that. MarksDTM.... you are not well mate! Grin

Infamy. Infamy. They've all got it Infamy. Grin

Here is the alleged W anchor:

His feedback goes on on Monday. It will be straight to the point - You know me, not one to mince my words!!!!!

An abreviated version of:

Totally incompetent, untrustworthy, thick Eastern bloc reject who's Mother was slapped silly by the midwife for creating such a horror. Buy off this dishonest, lying thieving scumbucket at your peril. He is NOT in Birmingham but is hiding behind his grandmathers AK47 in deepest Darkest Shitville, Poland. The crap he sent is made from used coke cans and marmite and would last about 37 seconds, as long as you don't actually start the car. I want to join hands with this numpty. I mean, join his hands, with a MIG welder! Bar steward extrordinaire. Did I mention Thief? Total twot.

Or something similar.....

Good job I'm not upset about this!

Couldn't have put it any better, but I think this might just exceed the character count of e-bay's feedback Grin
