RTB Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Since many of us were screwed and can no longer make a claim on paypal individually maybe if we had a coordinated complaint to Paypal they will be able to get us our money back. I spent 160ish on tie rods. If a few more people spent similar money then that becomes a more substantial amount and Paypal will have to take notice. Please respond to this thread or PM me with how much you spent and what you never received. Hopefully we can get our money back. Quote Link to comment
danfiveten Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Saddly i can say paypal still wont care, best chances are to take the guy to court together, small claims court will have more results by now. Quote Link to comment
RTB Posted April 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 To take him to court I think we would have to have a pretty substantial amount of scammed money. Lawyers fees would take away most of the money probably. Quote Link to comment
danfiveten Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Small claims court you can represent yourself, reason its called small claims court. ANd why i say if enough of you, and if enough people putting suit on him, could cause him issues with judgements against him. Quote Link to comment
RTB Posted April 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Also he is located in Canada and I am unsure of what kind of monkey wrench that throws into the whole equation. 1 Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Although not what you want to hear, I think you're screwed at this point. Nothing short of someone local banging on his door is going to get you guys your money back. You really have no leg to stand on with an international non-corporate seller outside of the Paypal claim range. Not unless he comes back out and makes things right of his own volition. Good luck guys. 1 Quote Link to comment
smoke Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I have to agree with Tristin on this. It's really shitty, but other than him deciding to come through with either parts or money, you're had. We have probably all had something similar happen. I once tried to get 500 bucks back from a guy, paypal did not care of course, so I had a lawyer send him a few letters, nothing. Then went through the steps to take him to small claims court, had him served. The fucker didn't show up, so I got the judgment in full. Yeah, cool....but he had no job and was living off his girlfriend or something, so taking money from his income was gone. At that point, I just wanted my time back more than I wanted the money.

danfiveten Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Even if you dont get your money back, at least the judgements show up against him, could even fuck him on getting a job and shit depending on the bacground check ran. Quote Link to comment
