I Hate Dishonest Sellers!!!!!

So I bought a pair of Elliots pheasants on Eggbid. They were guaranteed to be delivered on a tuesday, but they did not come in till wednesday. The lady at the post office said that we should be able to get our money back on shipping since it was not delivered on time and gave us a number to call. My husband called the number, but they said that they could not give us the money because the guy shipping was the one who paid the post office and that he would be the one refunded. So I email the guy and tell him..he seems all cool like yeah I will do that for you no problem I am busy I will go to the post office on monday and do it. So wed I email him and was like did you get the refund and he was like yeah I did, I will send you a check in the mail for it because if I refund you the money you will get charged. I was like wow this guy is pretty cool!! 1 week goes by no check so I email him again and he said I sent it out, but I will send another one, but if you get 2 send one back. Another week goes by and no check so I email him again and never get a response. So I file a claim on paypal and all they said was :
Our investigation into your claim is complete. As stated in our User
Agreement, the claims process only applies to the shipment of goods. It
does not apply to complaints about the attributes or quality of goods
received. Therefore, we are unable to reverse this transaction or issue a
refund.

So the guys made out an extra $60 I wish I never would have said anything about it I am so mad!!!!! Even if he would have just given us half...

That's sad. If he ain't going to send it, just say so and get it done.

Our Post office in WI will no longer guarantee 2 day delivery for lives, if it takes 3 days, even though you are paying for "guaranteed 2 day service" they will not refund.

We do not push the issue of a refund-- as the more refunds the post office has to give for live shipments the more likely they are to discontinue this service.

Sorry the seller has not stood by his word. At least you received birds- I hear many stories of people getting scammed on eggbid, and never getting anything.

I kind of understand your frustration, and its too bad that it happened that way, but

But, in the end you got what you paid for, right? It was just a day late....I mean the guy sent the birds on time, and they are ok now, he was dishonest but in the end you haven't really been cheated out of anything.

I'm not understanding what the problem is besides a day late. I'm not trying to rile anyone. I just don't understand. Are these live birds in a box? That I could understand. Are they eggs? Chicks? Did they arrive alive or not?

Live birds, pretty sure mature since they are a pair.

Oh. I'd hate to be in a box for three days, that's for sure. Okay, I can understand the frustration now. Thanks, Zahboo.

The frustration seems like it is over money. The birds were a day late, money was reunded to seller who didnt pass it along.

My ex used to do this to me with dental insurance. Teed me off so bad I stopped giving the insurance info to the dentists. I paid either way, but at least he wasn't making money on his son's care.

I can understand the frustration, if he said he would return it to you, then he should have done so. At least you got the birds, and they weren't affected by their long trip.
