Any advice for dealing with a deadbeat internet buyer
Posted on 6/30/14 at 11:04 am
Posted on 6/30/14 at 11:04 am
Backstory: Sold some old brake calipers on a offroad forum. Have no use for them and probably should have thrown them away a few months ago. He agreed to pay $100 including shipping, I USPS flatrated.
I'm in for about $18 on the shipping so it isn't that big a deal. Just don't like deadbeats.
Obvious cat facts text messages would be a good route, but he has my phone number so retaliation will probably be the same. Have his phone number and business address/number.
Long story short
Need way to frick with deadbeat buyer and entertain myself.

Done it plenty of times. First time burned. It's a forum similar to this one and the material was basically scrap metal.

Do you even paypal, bro?

Take a dump in a box and mail it to him.

I wouldn't waste the time for $18 and take it as a lesson learned.

And mark it guaranteed, if you have spare time.

You sent something without payment?

I'm gonna be honest, I've dealt with buying/selling over a forum so many times.
How hard is it to set up a paypal account and have them paypal you $$. That's your mistake for being too trustworthy, kiss the $18 goodbye and chalk that up as a learning experience.

Yeah, there are options within the website we communicated through for him to be banned and blah blah, but getting someone banned I don't think really makes a point.
btw, if it was anything worth real value I would have waited for payment.

Really? It surprises me how non-confrontational the OT is being over this.

Exactly, it's about principles now.
Works at/owns a custom motocycle shop. Darth might have to give me some advice.
