I'm still waiting for your email address if you can tear yourself away from your cholesterol.

 

[The History Man]

I’m too scared to give you it. Given the previous rate of escalation.

Liar. You have my email. I am now scared about you as you are a proven scammer.
Why do you not want your money back?
Scammer.

 

[The History Man]

I don’t. I gave you a couple of options. I’ll refer this to mods as I’m not getting any younger and my pork based conciliatory approach seems to have failed.

 

[Sir Neil d'Menture]

Refer what you want to the mods. I have offered to refund the amount I received from you but you refuse to allow me to do this. Why?
Just reinforces my view that you are a liar and a scammer.
If you were so worried about not receiving the shoes then maybe you should have taken longer than 4 minutes to try and grab these. Trying to resell them at a profit are we?

I'm really not sure what has happened here. Two established members, both with feedback threads (22 pages of positives for the buyer in this instance). The classified rules state "do not use Paypal gift" (now known as friends and family). Using goods and services does not mean the buyer is a scammer or that they don't trust the buyer. Throwing accusations like that around is not on. Of course many do use the "gift" option, especially when paying people they have dealt with previously, but the official line is still not to do it.

As a side note £9.41 will easily cover the postage, with money to spare, so the seller will have received more than they asked for. I'll gladly send 59p (via Paypal friends and family) if the payment is refunded.

Agree with everything you say. Stupid and petty, but if "buyer" wants to protect what is merely a reimbursement of my costs and not a purchase fee then he stands the costs of that protection. At the very least he should have mentioned it in advance.
I've found his email and will Paypal him £9.41.

Bizarre. Thanks Adrian. I was going to suggest that he pays it to cancer research.

Life’s too short.

Methinks my initial message became a prediction. Off to buy a lottery ticket.
