Ebay sellers should not ask you to use friends and family. It is my understanding that Paypal does not offer any buyer protection for Friends/Family payments.

I wonder of he can be punished by Paypal for asking you to use friends and family option when it isn't allowed?

Also, and I'm not sure about this, but don't you pick to either pay the fee or charge the recipient on a f/f payment?

You said this was going to Canada? If so, the Paypal fee is what? 3% 4%
Your paying in US Dollars so he getting an extra roughly 30% in CND depending on the current exchange rate.

I'm going to assume he speaks English as a second language. This is how I'm sure I sounded trying to speak Thai ten years ago, in Thailand. People still got the jist of what I was saying, though.

Im cuban
 

And have no idea what hes saying , ill help if he needs me,but im baffled

Sounds like Ricardo is ESL, that card was for sale on B/S/T and the transaction went south. Ricardo, every time I pay PP/FF I am charged unless it comes directly from my Paypal balance. It doesn't happen often on BST but it happens that some transactions don't work out. Don't lose any sleep over it, go find another card for your friends X-mas gift.

Ignore list function on N54 is such a beautiful thing!!

The WAT meme was one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a long time.

Mocking someone who speaks English as a second language is funny to you?

I understood what he was saying. Of course I had to want to.

Here is what he posted in the BST section. It is in the auction section for the mentioned card. This version is much better --- Brian

Seller never disclosed card coming from
Canada and will take several weeks!
Prevoiusly messaged seller before auction
expressing intrest in card in case
no wins only to be ignored. After winning
seller gives insructions on payment
and demands paypal gift and told
me mail card next day. Never disclosing
card coming from Canada and will
take several weeks which I find out
later thru 3rd party. Messaged seller
about questions after sale 2 times
only to be ignored. First about
how auction works since I was not
Sure never won auction net54
only bst with many postive transaction.
Third messaged ignored question
this is how find out card coming
from Canada which I dont mind
waiting on but simply like to know.
question seller about paypal charging
me fee to send my own paypal money
no answer. After calling paypal
was embrassed on phone when
paypal ask me are you sending
money to canada. Did not even
know how to answer. I paid my
payment in good faith and messaged
payment was completed and
question seller if card never turns
up lost in mail would seller guarentee
refund since this whole not going so
good and refunds me and only say I
asked to cancel which I did not.
Never minded card coming Canada
or taking several weeks with probaly
no way to track. Seller said im "out".
This has been waste of time and
very bad experience. Should have
in very minuim disclose Cananda seller
and could take possibly a month or more.
Thanks a lot bluesboy
Should have known from title
unreal condtion
more like unreal seller condtions.
Card was for new year gift.
Dont worry take my business elsewhere
but need express horrible experience

Out

Pmed ricardo
 

I will send him a replacement so he will be able to give his friend a card. Thats all the guy wanted to do ..i will overnight it .merry Christmas everyone

Dude! Great idea...

That's good to go. Way to come through.

There was no mystery here and the post was not that difficult to decipher. As previously stated, this guy clearly doesn't speak English as his primary language. So, to the poster - sorry you were misled and happy another member assisted in straightening it out.

I would recommend sending funds PayPal goods and paying the extra 3% next time if you're uncomfortable sending FF without protection. 3% is a small price to pay for peace of mind.

And I agree mocking someone who doesn't speak English is just sad, and a terrible look for the board. Not that surprising though unfortunately.

this thread is yet another prime example of what a truly great community we share here!
just when it appeared that things were going off the rails, numerous class act individuals stepped up to help put things back into perspective for all of us!
a special thanks goes out to octavio for saving a potentially disastrous situation, and to the others that stood up to express their empathy & compassion.
you are not just heroes to me, you are heroes & role models for our entire family!
thank you, gentlemen. :D

Thanks alot
 

Speak perfect english wrote
in a hurry trying to explain a long story and
awful experience and instead get made
fun . What a awful community.
expect for a few nices in the bunch.

Again won a card in auction here
and seller not disclosed coming from
canada and will take several weeks to get.
Ignored several messages from me asking
to explan things. Instead refunded me
and wasted my time and efforts.

Im not expert writer like all the
doctor degrees in english on board.

Hello
 

Who ever is charge this board
should ask sellers to disclose card
coming from out of country.
not after payment is made and
possibly wait card 45 days or more.
but of course this to much to
ask instead degrade person
having trouble.
good job

Thanks
 

Thanks Ocatvio
and others you support me and understand

If no one is out any money just don't do business with the person again. There is your solution. Maybe he should have put it was coming from out of country. He didn't. There isn't going to be a rule saying anyone has to say anything. Folks should communicate well over there. IF they don't, don't do business with them.

Every thread needs a card...or stamp

https://luckeycards.com/t332.jpg

More people were nice about this than made fun of your English. Another member (who had nothing to do with what happened) is trying to go way out of his way to make it right.

You were refunded quickly, even though you didn't get the "gift".

Things could be a lot worse. You're making all of this a lot worse (and into a lot more drama) than it needs to be

Well that heartfelt Christmas Story kind of ended on a flat note...

Hello
 

Hello
Seller is sneaky and cheats me out a card
won for only asking for guarantee of
delivery of goods after making me
paypal gift and incurring fees from
my own paypal funds money.


Lets ask seller to send card first and
when arrives I pay.

Thanks for the ones that understood
and happy holidays to others that made
fun. Wrote in a hurry to explain long
story fast and go enjoy other things
in life.

Not my first bad experience here
been laughed at before.

There are 3 sides to every story. You told the seller you collected poor condition cards, I saw the message, but above you say you wanted it for a New Years gift. I guess to yourself? But regardless, if you don't have good experiences on the BST don't go there.

Rob M

You are starting to take this in the wrong direction. I understand being pissed, but you should just let it go. This forum is as unforgiving as it is anything else. Go out on a high note.

My last post
 

Ricardo the seller did nothing wrong leon was giving you good advice ,i had an issue here a while back leon helped in a good way,,the guy is now a pal and buys from me .its a $20 card forget about it ,,ill send you something better..your getting crazy over nothing. Silly carry on

Hello
 

Ocatvio it is wrong seller not metion
card is coming out country and can take
several weeks. Why hide not be honest
and waste peoole time and aggrvation.
Im cool and perfectly fine I was made
fun off and cheated out of a card.
I find one better 100 times more.
But dont like the abuse and made fun
off. No one deserves especially hobby
fun stuff turns sour real fast.
not the first time here.


just remember old saying friend if
you don't like it dont let the door hit u
in rear end

happy holidays

really funny
 

real funny picture
down syndrome person
should be ashamed ur selfs

wat

OK Ricardo
 

the time has come for you to take a deep breath, perhaps several, and calm down. maybe switch to decaf. :)
you are repeating yourself now in your posts, and, as we say here, "beating a dead horse." or, perhaps more familiarly "estas dando cabezazos contra la pared!"
time to put this thread to bed.
so, i'm going to respectfully request that if you insist on posting again that this thread be locked.
it is rapidly devolving into a regrettable snl skit, or worse yet, a sidney powell court case.
do us all a favor & please accept the advice that has been offered.
and just be grateful for the magnanimous gesture by octavio.

not correct
 

Im standing up for injustice
and offended by making fun people
im offended by picture person
down syndrome.
no place in hobby collecting
place ban me now.
dont want anything to do with
this vulgar suggestions

I've bought numerous things from the BST here, so have many other people. I understand having a bad experience, might turn you off from a seller, but that's no reason to disparage the entire forum. I'm sorry you had a bad experience, hopefully you'll have better ones in the future

Ricardo, I’d like to apologize for my post. In trying to be funny, I was insensitive and in no way do I wish to insult you or offend you. My apologies.

Hello
 

its offends me post picture
person with down syndrome
do u know some one that
has it with alzamiiers not funny.

can u understand esl

Pretty sure this was on BST Auctions

The op seems extremely angry about this and it is getting very ugly. I didn’t see anyone being intentionally mean, I saw people who didn’t understand the post. I don’t see a woman with Down’s syndrome - I see an extremely popular and widely used photo of an old woman who is affectionately referred to as the “Wat Grandma”. Implying she had downs could be taken as offensive.

A free and better card to replace has been generously offered. I’m just wondering, what is the op trying to accomplish? What would you like to see done?

After all, we are in the middle of a global pandemic where people are dying and losing their jobs. it’s just a card. Let’s be thankful for what we have. Happy holidays to all.

wideky use photo
 

please make it clear it has nothing
to do with any card or purpose
dont want any thing free.
but after finding out truth this forum
and after bieng dismissed.
I prefer not to engage any further busines
here dont care if u have for sale
a t206 honud wagner for $5 or $5 miilion.
I will not engage or practice in this forum
any longer.
put me on ban list

Different point of view
 

Everyone is looking at the buyer how about looking at the seller also. Maybe the seller was looking for a way to not sell the card for the winning bid. Granted it is very poor but it is a 52 high number and a Yankees card. Could it be possible that he thought $20 was to low to let it go?
I do think it’s blown out of proportion that the card is coming from Canada and if you send money out of the country I’m always charged a fee even if it’s F&F but it can’t be very much for $20. Assuming the upset part comes from it really was needed in a certain time frame which probably wasn’t going to happen coming from Canada. For me I could care less if I get a card from Canada in a month or two days from in the US. It will come and I will get it and will make no difference in the long term.
To me I would like to know why I got a refund if I never asked for it?
Rick

Mocking someone who speaks English as a second language is funny to you?

I understood what he was saying. Of course I had to want to.

Well you clearly didn’t understand what I was saying. I said the meme of the lady with no teeth was funny. Read what I said again...

I will agree with OP on 1 point, sellers should disclose if they are outside of US, items from Canada can take much longer and there can be additional Paypal fees.

It is true that the Seller did not disclose that the card was coming from Canada.
However, the OP bid "$20", not "$20 if I can get it before Christmas" (The auction ended on the 18th. A pre-Christmas arrival was unlikely anyway) A Communication Breakdown led to a failed transaction. Both parties will survive.

Standing up for injustice by using the phrase "down syndrome person"

Look in the mirror...

Hello
 

Ok lets start the bully tatics again
and word manipulation games.
Make fun of this dont care anymore.
Got cheated out of card and
looked for support instead got
ridiculed.
Thanks for ones understood me
and many people I have purchased from
and talk to thru the years.

...

I think everybody needs to calm down. Maybe this picture will do the trick:

https://i.redd.it/kane1mtk4fl31.jpg

Well this has been...entertaining. I didn't need those last 20 minutes anyway! :)

Yes....that picture did the trick. Not every auction turns out bad. The guy was from Canada and you didn't want to risk sending F/F. I get that. For 3% more you can send stuff Goods & Services. Yes, it will take a bit to get the card....especially dealing with the problems we are seeing anyway, and even more so to it being international. Like someone else said....it is only a card, and a beat up one at that. There will be others.

Confusing....
 

X is certainly not marking the spot!

Hello
 

The thing is I did pay him paypal gift
and the extra fee from bieng from Canada
which i did not mind either and clearly told
him I will wait the several weeks.
But when asked if the card never turns up
do i get money back then refunds me.
Why? I did everything correctly.
Maybe was meant to be to many red flags
not disclose he outside us why?
And ignorning my messages
Btw it was for news years gift.


seller not acted correctly

OP, she clearly does not have Down's Syndrome.

Hello
 

maybe not
but down syndrome are beautiful people
and have really good heart and souls.
God bless them.

Hello
 

when i was a kid my best friend
had down syndrome.
I was 6 years old he was 25
Today he is 55 but cant remember me.
God bless you . I love u forever.

It's time to close this post. We all got the point.

BTW That picture did not calm me down.

Is that the "after picture" of the "W A T Lady" when she completes her New Year resolutions ?

It works both ways... what are you trying to accomplish? And very ugly? The Net54 award for the absolute biggest exaggeration of the day goes to....

Is this your first time on the board?? There is ALWAYS drama, and usually from the regulars.

Oct is huge for stepping up to help !
