OK..
I recently sold a b43 front wheel to a wheel to a kid on this forum named xrawrx, he paid via paypal as a gift so we met up and i gave him the wheel. As soon as i got home i tried transfering the money over to my bank account, but cause my bank account wasn't verified with paypal, by law they have to reverse the payment back to the original sender.So i contacted him telling what has happened, and we rearranged to meet again to give the money back to me. As you guessed he was no where to be seen with my money or wheel. Its since been a week and a half and iv been constantly trying to ring/txt him which he either doesnt reply, answer and rejects my calls.
He made up an excuse that the money never returned to him and is waiting for paypal to return it him. I have since spoken to paypal and they confirmed it has definatly been returned to his card. Paypal said they can't cover me as it was paid as a personal transaction/gift.
Now i don't understand why this idiot would go through all this hassle for £70. Firstly i have done him a favor by selling him the wheel at a cheap price, secondly its 70 quid dammmiitttt. He said he has been on lfgss for a few years now and never had problems with payments/transactions ect ect. I have given him more than enough chances to return the money and still nothing.
Does anyone know, bought/sold anything from/to this fool as i want my money? Name and shame his details or either convince him to do the right thing!
