<p>[QUOTE="dctjr80, post: 1183756, member: 15915"]Since when is eBay and PayPal the final judge of moral and ethical business exchange? You guys are hilarious! They did everything in their power to protect the buyer (which I agree that they always should), but that doesn't mean in anyway that there is not anything else that you could do on your end to make the deal even. I won a coin from Latvia once and the dealer claimed they shipped it and three weeks later I opened a claim, so the dealer asked me if I wanted my money or another of the same coin and I asked for another of the same coin, because I wanted it for my collection, he claimed he would send another. Weeks passed and no coin came in so I let the claim run its course and was finally given a full refund, but it took weeks longer to end the case because of international shipping. The day they paid me my money, one of the coins showed in the mail later that after noon. eBay and PayPal were not going to force me to do anymore business with the seller, but I went right on after work and sent him his payment back again, explaining that one of the coins arrived. Laughing, I said to my wife, for karma sake what will I do if the original coin arrives next... Luckily it never did..(but I had already decided I would have paid an equal price if it arrived)... Moral of the story is that eBay and PayPal do not Guarantee a fair outcome to both parties every time, and I agree that if issued a refund you should return said item. If you really felt ownership of said item is unethical than you would have already submitted it to the feds or destroyed it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
