Got a weird one...
Bought a projection screen 7/21 for $55. Said item was in MD, great since I am in VA should be quick. Almost a week goes by, no tracking, no item. Seller says oh sorry coming from my other warehouse in CA. Gives me UPS tracking number. Delivery day 7/28 comes, no item. UPS tracking says delivered 7/28. I have Ring so I know there was no delivery. I call UPS and they say well yes that package was delivered to your town, BUT, it's for a different name and different address. Contact seller who low an behold is based in Indonesia. Says I need to file a police report. LOL for what? Nothing was stolen. I tell him to refund me and contact UPS to file a claim or his warehouse. He refused. Had to file an eBay claim. Lost the claim since all they saw was UPS showing delivered to my town. Called UPS again and recorded the convo. Filed an appeal with eBay and won a reversal. Got my money back. Left negative feedback for the extreme hassle. Fast forward to 8/5. Got an amazon package. Weird I didn't order anything. Inside is said screen with purchase date of 7/21 and a GIFT RECEIPT. **bleep**. I had already bought the screen elsewhere by this point. As much as I wanted to just keep it or sell it, as much as I wanted to punch this guy in the throat, I am honest. I reached out and told the guy I got the AMAZON package 2 days ago and I'll just return it for him. He explained that he does FBA, but no return, he is going to send me a paypal invoice to pay for it. I don't recall ever getting a gift through Amazon, so for kicks I scan the gift receipt and my Amazon app pops up and is happy to take the screen back and refund $44 (not $55) to my Amazon account. Jerk guy won't stop messaging me. Icing on the cake eBay removed the negative feedback. So now what do I do??

Tell the seller that you are not going to pay for anything. Tell them that you are prepared to return the screen if they pay for all expanses associated with the return. Ask them to figure out where to return it, it is not your problem. Tell them that you already have wasted incredible amount of time on this purchase and unless they provide you with a simple way and funds to return the screen, you are not going to spend anymore time on it and this is your last message. Stop communicating with them.

I'm curious why ebay erased the review you gave, is that typical? (I'm new)

Since the buyer lost the initial INR the feedback was removed
