Mike on a bike Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 With all the bad things from scamers to PP disputes getting much air time I thought I would tell this short story. Bought a 1680 of member whoopy12 no problem all good few days later he is selling parts, AH ! a 703 crown (need that) pm him pay all good sending right over Mike. Well few days later letter comes ripped open no crown (looks like from sorting machine no foul play), take some of my great pics send, hey whoop no crown! Well by that night money credited to my PP acct. done! Now this story tells me two things member whoopy12 is stand up guy and always ship with tracking and insurance. Keep in mind I didn't even ask for money back just sent the news w/pics, this how we should deal with each other. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbh Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I learned the hard way about those sorting machines when sending a rep crown out to a member. Same thing, he got the envelope ripped with no crown. And I had the crown between two pieces of cardboard. No money exchanged hands but I learned not to ship items in envelopes made for letters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike on a bike Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 I consider myself a bystander in this event reporting on it, Mr Whoopy showed the strength of character we all hope is on the other side of our transactions.

panerai153 Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Must be and epidemic of sorting machine problems.I sent mymanmatt a tritium pearl for a project he's working on for me. I sent everything else in a box last week, but I forgot the pearl. discovered it on my desk a couple of days ago. So, silly me, I put it inside it's little plastic bag, inside a regular envelope, and sent it to him. Damn if I didn't get an email from him today, "got your letter, envelope was ripped open, pearl was nowhere to be found"!! I should have known better. i generally over pack everything I mail, but I wasn't thinking, in a hurry, and now a genuine tritium pearl is lost forever. lucky I had another one, it's going out tomorrow, in a double plastic bag inside a regular envelope, inside a padded envelope, and it's going Priority with insurance this time!!. Sometimes we get a little too hurried, or we try to save a few bucks, and the consequences are far more expensive than the safer route.
