Before you read any more of the saga you probably need to go here.

Now, the person in question responded to my emails very apologetically stating that they’d just started a new job hence leaving eBay etc etc but not to worry things were being sent out recorded delivery – oh and btw would I be interested in buying all of their stock from them in bulk because it has to go.
I sent a return email wishing them luck and expressing regret that I couldn’t afford such a large purchase.
Yesterday I sent another email querying the whereabouts of my recorded delivery, this is the response:

hi sorry they have not arrived ill glady send you the tracking number…
please forward a s.a.e with £1.00 to ensure a copy of the receipt (terms & condtitions bexs ebay home page)please let me know if you would like to proceed
regards

Now please note that:

1. They are no longer registered on eBay so how can I check the terms and conditions
2. I have received no address to send said sae (and more money)
3. if the item was sent recorded delivery as previously stated why can’t they just send me a tracking number as I asked?

I’m being taken for a ride people, as if it’s not bad enough I’ve had money taken from me under false pretences I’m now being used as a source of amusement for this peice of work.

Anyhow, just because I could be wrong and maybe they are just that stupid and haven’t got a clue I clarified my request with this email:

All I need is the tracking reference number if you sent it recorded delivery as you stated in the last email, I just want to know where royal mail say it’s up to.

Let’s see what response I get to that (if any) should no response be forthcoming I’ll not only register an INR complaint with paypal I shall post the email address on here and on the ebay forums to warn off anyone else from having any financial doings with this person.

I’m NOT happy.
