Let me give you some background into whats going on. I bought a car stereo on ebay. The seller says to me "i wont sell it for that price, i need $30 more". I told him hes a scum bag and reported him to ebay and he refunded me my money short of $0.51. I left him bad feedback and messaged him telling him i need the rest of my refund. He responds with, "ok you need to talk to ebay and get that feedback you left taken off or else". Obviously im not taking the feedback rating off, this guy deserves more bad feedback!! Im just not sure what to do.

But what's the point? All that will most likely happen is they send angry e-mails back and forth to each other. Leave it to karma, a seller like that will get what is coming to him eventually. |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: Pennsylvania | | | Yeah I agree that you are lucky you got most of your dough back, but I would leave negative feedback all over for him and get on any of his other seller pages and make sure everyone knew what he did.
So, just to clarify...you won an ebay auction, sent him the money via paypal then he emails you saying he wants more after you paid, right? |

Let him have the .51 and enjoy the fact that you didn't get a product that was probably all messed up... |

Leave it there....you can't buy fun like that. Maybe add some more for fun mentoning his refusal to refund you the extra amount...that outta make his head explode. |

Let the universe handle this one. He'll get his
