Guys:
A) Please let the webteam know about such matters! Don't just post on the forum: if we're not made aware of the posts, we can't help!
B) Use the Itrader system; buying from newbies with no feedback then paying by a method that affords you no rights if things go ***** up is not a good idea
C) Please don't bemoan SN for not offering you more protection for purchasing stuff: remember we're a webforum, not Ebay. Mods have neither the time, resources or legal authority to secure each individual transaction. There will always be an element of "Buyer beware" when buying stuff off strangers on an internet forum!
I've just shut the other thread down and made it clear to Scooby555 that he is to resolve the matter with bazzabugs before relisting the items!

They'll be ok, their Itrader score will be clean and (I've not looked) but I'm guessing that they're an established and respected member.
If there is any confusion, just RTM it and we'll put the official word in!

Hi i brought and paid for a set of wheels on 10 Feb and the person i brought the from scoobby555 Claims they have'nt got the money.They said that paypal have closed there account.I contacted paypal and they told me my payment was recieved and its no longer in there account.
scoobby555 won't answer my emails and has also put the wheels up for sale 3 other times since i paid for them.I sent the money as a gift to him because he said paypal would charge him if i sent it another way.By doing this im unable to get a refund.

You directly ignored this advice and are now suffering the consequences - you have no comeback on them at all. They make this clear at the time of transaction.
If someone asks to get paid outside the system then this alone should raise an alarm bell with you.
Sorry you got ripped off - but you did play your part.
Paypal and ebay state very clearly that if you pay outside the system then you have no cover.

If that was my money i would travel to his/her door, dont care how much it would cost to get there but a face to face would be in order.
Hope you get sorted, i will watch for this on sidc, just in case

Ricey
firstly can i point out
1) deal was done on 3rd of Feb
2) i was told a paypal payment would be made or cheque would be sent, to be recieved by the 5th or 6th of feb of which i didnt recieve
3) by the time i got the money (cash) sent by a rcorded delivery
which i got on the 15th of february i then deposited into my account, i then organised a courier of which on the 2 occasions they tried to collect my misses was out because it was half term, which yes was my fault. however i have had to wait to repay for the courier to collect, until payday.
if i had of recieved the money by the 5th which was way b4 half term then it would of been sent.
every1 is quick enough to jump on the band wagon and tarnish me with the same brush scoobby555
i hope this explains my point across
and i very sorry for any bad feelin, and would not accept money by deception as this fraud
its just a shame no 1 likes to hear any other persons comments when they are about to be shot.

and would never ripp any1 off.
rant over
I think ricey was getting stressed with the lack of comminication, one mans floor is another mans ceiling, his idea of good communication could be very different than yours, hence misunderstandings can happen.
As long as it's sorted i don't see that anyone will tarnish you with the same brush as scoobby555

now its goin out tomorrow, what he seems to forget is, if i had recieved the funds as promised by the 5th or 6th, he would of recieved the bumper by the 10th, my misses wouldnt stay in cos of half term, instead of payin £30 for courier its cost me £60, am i complaining.
maybe i should just stick to selling the items on ebay, on ebay i only accept paypal, but because he was tryin to hide it from his misses, i accepted cash, and had to wait for it, nearly a whole 2 weeks.
if i am paid by paypal, then both parties are covered, but he seemed a nice enough guy, i let it go, i certainly wont next time.
rant over,
Update scoobby555 don't reply to any emails now.So much for him saying he wanted to sort it out.I sent him an email from paypal explaining to him how to go on about giving me my refund.He don't even reply to me thats how much he want to give a refund
