musiqlovr, what happened?

On a quest for high fidelity
I hate to post feedback like this, but this was a pretty unfortunate transaction.

I opted to buy some cables that musiqlovr had for sale. I paid him in full on September 19th.

Well, a week goes by and I send a PM asking if he had shipped them. No response. I waited about another 5 days to a week, sent another message, nothing. At this point it's been two weeks. I decide to give him the benefit of the doubt and think perhaps he shipped. Another week goes by and nothing has shown up nor have I heard a peep from him.

At this point I'm thinking he has not shipped them nor intends to, USPS states they will ship an item and it will arrive, at latest, by 10 business days. Giving him some fudge room, it has been beyond that amount of time and still nothing. I sent him an e-mail at this point to his paypal email. Finally on Monday last week I decided to put in a Paypal dispute. I waited another 2 days to see if that would get a response, nada. At this point I escalated it to a claim and tonight my money was refunded.

I mean, I waited nearly an entire month and got nothing. I really hope there's an explanation for it, but to not communicate for the entire time and certainly not ship them, I'm pretty disappointed. If you're going to sell something, follow through with your sale and communicate with your buyer.

It's unfortunate because I have seen other positive feedback for him and this would probably be the first time there has been anything negative. In the end, this will be the last time I deal with this AKer for anything for sale.

I certainly hope that this is a one time thing musiqlovr. I do not like to see transactions go this way.

I'm not making excuses for the seller, but I have dealt with him twice and the second time there was a delay in shipping. He had started a new job and was in China for a couple of weeks. There was no communication during the time he was away, but my order and several others were taken care of when he returned from overseas. I don't know if he is out of the country this time, but wanted to let you know my experience.

Thanks Carl, I appreciate that. Had he of let me known something like that I would have been willing to wait.
 
I am in a similar situation, I bought a couple rca's (cash plus trade item) paypal'ed him the cash and mailed the trade item to him, which was delivered four days later. That was three weeks ago, still nothing on his end. I really hope to see his end of the bargain upheld, and if it is ever delivered I'll delete this post. We didn't discuss timeframes, I just assumed it would be a couple weeks, tops.
 
I currently am having the identical problem you guys had with musiqlovr. I paid him for a Teac DAC and he has not delivered. He responded to my PM after a week of waiting and informed me that he just returned from China and my item would arrive the next day. Well, another 2 days goes by, still no package. I send another PM, asking to be refunded. He answered after a few days and now states he was in Europe and the DAC has not been shipped. He also asks if I want the DAC or a refund. I told him I want to be refunded. Guess what? I'm still waiting for my refund days after this last PM.

I guess I'll have to put in a claim through PayPal also to get my money back.
 
sad situation for all. But this is why I am not a fan of using PayPal Friends and Family. In my experience, you are out the money if you have a dispute. Hopefully all are able to find a settlement.
 
Refund was issued. I apologized to buyer. I was in China came back on a saturday and had to go to europe on the following Tuesday. I truly believed I would get ti shipped. Full refund was issued. I need to not sell things when I will be away outside the country.
 
musiqlovr,

I honestly hope that this doesn't happen to anyone else on AK, and thanks for sending the refund.

Ben
