I was JUST making a list of items I want to sell and was going to start listing them on ebay early next year - NOT ANYMORE, nor will I use paypal thru another channel. I have friend who intends to sell a saddle on Ebay - my next action is to forward this blog to her.

I brought it to two salons that said this is way too heavy to be used as a headband unless you don't plan on moving your head all day. I tried to return it and the seller denied the request because it had been longer than two weeks. I appealed with the implication that the item was described as a headband, but there wasEmily M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07445664152299987013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-2452372399118941412013-12-03T08:58:47.229-05:002013-12-03T08:58:47.229-05:00Wow.

If I can't find it elsewhere, I don't need it. Good luck with small claims. Where did the buyer live? Because you need to file in their jurisdiction, I believe, based on my business law class.

Ebay and Paypal refunded her money, PLUS let her rant and rave all over my Ebay ratings page with no way to refute her crazed drivel. First time I had EVER had any negative feedback. She also went the no communication route.<br /><RoadQueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02340136040929361717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6317822193674196694.post-69107035696924722352013-12-03T07:26:24.348-05:002013-12-03T07:26:24.348-05:00Gosh, I'm so sorry you have to deal with this ...Gosh, I'm so sorry you have to deal with this mess.
