Bent CPU Pins?

Ha ha, yes, I do always have his address in the event it doesn't go my way :p

It was just a message to eBay to inform them of this guy in case he took it further, so they hear it from me first. I replied to them saying I was not going to refund him as, like I showed them, it is clearly a different socket.

I then messaged the guy and said I could tell it was different from the one I sent and in no way I was going to refund him, and that I had told eBay about it. He was usually quick to respond yesterday, but I haven't heard from him for several hours now, so I am hoping he got the message and has just admitted defeat and that he got caught. He hasn't filed a claim or anything, he said he preferred not to resort to that, probably because he knew he was wrong, so I'm hoping this is the last of it and he's just chickened out of it. If he does continue this on it will be a real pain in the rear.

He won't be able to file a report yet, he is more than likely biding his time now and will file when ebay lets him, you are best to have no bank or credit cards linked to paypal or ebay, if so get onto your bank and cancel any standing orders or DD's linked to paypal or ebay.
 
Yeah I have cancelled all connections to my bank from PayPal.

After I messaged him early this afternoon saying I caught him out, I have received no word. I just hope he's got the message and will just drop it.
 
FFS! Heard back from the guy, he is now claiming that the board is not the one described, and wants either a refund or the the correct item shipped out to him, and has escalated to a case. This guy is such a douche! I'll have to contact eBay again and make sure they got all the pics I sent and fully understand the situation. This is P-ing me off now!
 
Yeah I'd contact the police, ebay won't listen, they never will.

Funny that, they're never willing to help me when bad **** happens to me, I bought a 4870 which went faulty (and was clearly just a reflow board) - seller sent another which also went faulty, then packed up shop and did a runner.

Turned out it was a part of a much bigger shop, I only got my £65 back threatening the shop with legal action. Bluffing for the w.

If you ever chose to sell on there again, select "No returns accepted" but offer returns in the listing - that way you won't get the ebay automated rubbish.

I told you he'd do that. :rolleyes:

And don't close Paypal... Because then you can't respond.
Removing details from Paypal makes YOU look like a scammer, it's only evidence against you.
Regardless of removing the details, they'll send debt collectors after you, and they will hound you.

EDIT : Report him to the police, Paypal and Ebay blow.

Send debt collectors for what? contact the police man.
 
This is a horrible situation you're in.
I was the same and no matter what I tried, there is no way to fix it other than let it go and learn from it.
Ebay only looks after its buyers and sellers constantly get screwed from B******S like this.
Personally I would post a **** in a box to the person and move on from it.
I consider myself a honest, do the right thing type of person but people like this bring out the worst in us and make us do things we would regret.
It's a shame this has happened to you.
