Am i getting partial refund or scammed?

Hello fellow ebayers i need help from the more experienced , i recently bought a set of 5 new rims that cost

me 650 , they came scratched and i when i told the seller he wouldnt answer and i sent him a message saying if he issue is resolved i would file a claim of not descrived,  he asked for pictures , which i complied , i sent him pics of the boxes damaged and pics of the 3 out of 5 wheels scratched and the 4th missing paint , he offered me a partial refund of 50 per wheel and he offered 150 and i told him 200 because of the unpainted one too , since i would have to repowder coat them and that would cost me way more, he finally said okay and said he would , and today i get a cancel transaction request? Is this right ? It says not to accept if i didnt get a full refund , keep im mind he is taking forver to reply to my emails

Am i getting partial refund or scammed?

When a seller issues a partial refund, they do not get any of their eBay fees back.

 

This seller is trying to get his whole selling fee back which he isn't entitled to.

 

I wouldn't reward him

File the item not as described case and get your full money back and make the seller eat the shipping both ways.

eBay does not for sellers to comply with partial refunds they never have

Decline the cancel request and immediately file and Item Not as Described return request.  The seller is trying to avoid their responsibility to make this right.

You installed them so now you own them. Good luck on any type of refund.

I just checked and he did refund me the 200, ten minutes after he sent me the canceling purchase request , do i just reject the canceling request and wait for the refund to go in my bank?

If the refund is showing up in PayPal thank your lucky stars.

When you said that you mounted tires on them as soon as you did that you lost your eBay purchase protection.

As far as the request I think I would wait to do anything on that till the $200 is actually showing in your bank acct.

If the refund is in your PayPal account, accept the cancellation. The seller can’t reverse the refund. You have to transfer the money to your bank account if it’s currently IN your PayPal balance.

When i go to my paypal it shows the refund in the activitys”money in” part , not the manage balance , i guess thas because i paid with my debit card using paypal so the money will go in my bank account , you recomment me to accept the canceling purchase request? Indont know what i should do with the request as i dont know if it pertains to a partial refund

If you paid with a debit card then the refund will go to the card and should take just a couple days. I would wait a few more days before doing anything, to allow the refund to hit your bank account 🙂

Is the cancellation for the RETURN request or a request to cancel the entire TRANSACTION?

Its says “cancel transaction” reason:the seller says you have returned or will be returning item for refund

The seller would get back the final value fees e.g. $65 if you cancel.

 

Are you comfortable with lying to eBay?
