Re: Strange scam maybe unique to one person

Don't get carried away with your imagination working overtime.  It is highly unlikely the delivery driver had anything to do with anything.  

 

I'm not sure why you are "discouraged".  It typically takes some time to learn how to sell on this site.  

 

Why do you care if a buyer that paid for an item from you turns around and sells it either here or elsewhere for more money?  You sold it for the price you were asking.  But how could they list your product you sold them if they never received it?  I'm at a loss to understand that.  

 

I'm honestly not quite sure of what to make of your situation.  It doesn't appear that the buyer has filed a claim against you from what you said.  Is that correct?

Sounds like op is saying that the item that he sold to the person was never delivered.  "never gets delivered false".

 

Wondering if op had to refund the item in question for item being undelivered only to find that same item up for sale on the buyer's side.

 

That's what it sounds like to me.

IDK, I must admit I'm pretty confused.  The OP also says "he has it listed on his page", so if they are trying to sell it one would think they have it.  But I have more questions on this one than I have answers.

Sorry, but i am not absolutely clear on your concern. But this is what i think you are saying—-

 

Are you talking about your sold bitcoin? I see two bitcoins currently listed like the one you sold on eBay. However, the serial numbers are not the same as yours.

 

It is entirely possible that, of the tokens listed, (if that seller is your customer) neither is the one you sold. He has two separate listings. Why do you think one of those is yours?

 

If the tracking on your package does not show delivery, the item is still in transit. That is far more likely than the dishonest driver conspiracy you have proffered.

 

Did you call the postal service and make enquiries, or ask for a trace be placed on the delayed package?

If that buyer has opened an item not received case, why would you, the seller, not simply respond by posting the tracking # proving otherwise?  Or is there some other issue.  Many of us are somewhat confused by your message.

Re: Strange scam maybe unique to one person

confusing post!

 

I'm guessing it may be the bitcoin listing. 

 

I have never understood why people would invest in crypto currency that is a non-tangible item like real physical currency, gold, silver, and so on.
