Fraud From A Seller On Forum - Please Read!

Maybe someone can help me...

I purchased $200 worth of records from seller "Stacey-L" on June 28 and the seller told me they were shipped media mail form Davis, California on the 30th, but would never give me a tracking #. As of today it has been 9 working days and still no records have been received. When I try to look up the sellers address info. in the yellow pages online no record exist, but my check has been cleared that I sent the seller. At this point the seller does not respond to my pms.

I just wanted to know if anybody has had any experience with this seller or could help me in some way with this, and wanted to put up a red flag so that others are not ripped off here.

yea once it took over 2 weeks. Keep patience.

media mail can take quite a while. i wouldnt start to worry yet.

Posted by djtrinity on Jul-12-2004 15:14:

please keep us posted! i hope u don't get screwed

Hunny,
You needd to learn something called patience. I was out of contact for the past few days because my sister got into a car accident and I wanted to be with her at the hospital until she was stabilized.

As these members have mentioned, media mail does take longer. Not to mention, I sent it right before the big holiday weekend here which delayed packages even further im sure.

If by unlikely scenario, your records did get lost, I will reimburse , there is no need to slander me on the forum and take away my integrity.

Stacey-L, first - thank you for taking the time to respond. It was good to hear from you. Second, I'm being patient and look forward to receiving the records. As I have stated twice before, it was not my intent, nor motive, to slander your integrity, but to simply inquire about members past experience with you as a seller and to ask for suggestions because, in my opinion, it was taking longer than my past experience.

At this point let's just see if they come this week. It would be the longest I have had to wait for something from CA., but your right it may be slow for some reason and delayed by the holiday, np.

I'll let you know when I receive them. I ask for forgiveness if this thread has in anyway mispresented you as a seller. I will keep this updated with how it goes.

I'm also waiting to receive my Allen & Heath Xone 92 Rotary Mixer, but Stacey messaged me yesterday apologizing for the delay due to a family emergency. She promised she would ship the mixer this morning along with tracking numbers. So, I think I'd cut her some slack, but I can see where you are coming from. I was getting pretty anxious myself as buying/selling over the internet is really a matter of 'trust' and I'd really hate to see $1000 scammed from me. I'll be sure to let everyone know when it arrives. And Stacey, I wish you and your sister well.

Thanks guys for understanding my situation. Just got off the phone with my dad and he sayhs that Erin (my sister) has stablized.
d320 - if your records dont come by friday, i am sending you a refund check

tegu - ill be sending yours off today and mail you a tracking #

Posted by djtrinity on Jul-12-2004 17:49:

this looks promising for a happy ending!

Posted by d3020 on Jul-12-2004 17:51:

Good news about your sister.

I would rather have the records than a refund check, but your willingness to do that for some odd reason they don't show up is cool. I'll defenitely keep you informed.

d3020, you need to be a bit more careful before jumping to conclusions. Even though you say that "it was not my intent, nor motive, to slander your integrity, but to simply inquire about members past experience with you as a seller", you also had a topic heading "Fraud From A Seller On Forum - Please Read!", which isn't exactly a "inquiry about a member" title

Hope to see this sort itself out with a happy ending.

Now now, lets not get on d320s back. Simple mistake. Maybe a MOD can delete this thread now that its all been resolved?

u said it!

Posted by d3020 on Jul-12-2004 19:06:

I stand corrected regarding that title.

Posted by Widget on Jul-12-2004 20:51:

I wasn't attacking/flaming d3020, just making a point. The smiley was meant to show that the post was a light hearted commented - no offence was meant.

Posted by Tegu on Jul-15-2004 17:24:

Stacey,

Where is the tracking number you promised me 2 days ago?

Posted by d3020 on Jul-15-2004 17:42:

Update here:

I still have not received the records. I have contacted USPS and inquired about the approx. amount of time this should take and they told me 2-9 postal days. I have requested that Stacey-L ask the post office where these were shipped from for any info. or do anything that would help us, but to my knowledge no such attempt has been made.

Stacey-L has communicated with me a few times regarding this and has talked about sending me a money order to reimburse me, but at this point nothing has been received.

Posted by djsurreal on Jul-15-2004 18:01:

calm down - the psot office might say 2-9 days but everyone is on vacation right now of course its slow - and she even said she will reimburse you if there was any problem - jsut calm down be patient

Posted by d3020 on Jul-15-2004 18:07:

I hope your right.

Would you not say though it's a bit strange that Tegu also has not received a promied tracking #. Yes, it could be just that, a bit strange, but I guess we'll find out.

Posted by Tegu on Jul-15-2004 18:46:

It's difficult to be patient when you just sent someone $1000 for an A&H Xone 92 Rotary...

STACEY: IF I DO NOT HEAR FROM YOU BY TOMORROW I WILL START TAKING ACTION.

Posted by d3020 on Jul-15-2004 22:41:

Stacey, I don't understand why when your online here that you do not reply to this post or the pms that have been sent to you regarding this important topic.

What's going on?

Posted by Tegu on Jul-15-2004 23:48:

Stacey, check your PMs

Like I said, now that this has gotten so dragged out, if that mixer is anything less that PERFECT and if it does not include EVERYTHING that it came with I want a refund immediately before you ship it.

Posted by djtrinity on Jul-16-2004 15:42:

i hope this still has a happy ending

Posted by Tegu on Jul-16-2004 17:31:

at this point neither d3020 nor myself are so sure that it is going to have one. we'll be sure to keep everyone at TA posted. thanks for the support though as everyone at TA needs to work together to make sure that the classifieds here stay safe and free of fraudulent sellers. it is unfortunate that one person can ruin it for so many.
