weird problem with buyer,

sold a magazine, shipped it and he emails me I sent wrong one. no problem. I send right one next day WITH funds in the package to ship wrong mag back so all he had to do is switch them out and do a return to sender.

well - no mag, he hasn't sent the other one back and its been 4 weeks. no response to emails, etc.

now it ain't the mag or the principle but I have mixed up items about 3-4 times in 15 years and always fixed it right away w/o waiting on the wrong items return.

NOW because of this AH I will have to wait till I get the wrong item back before I ship the right item. if it happens again I will have to tell the customer that because of a previous buyer keeping both items I can't ship right item UNTILL the wrong item is returned.

there's no way he didn't have a clear legible address for me because I use address stickers so you don't have to try to read my writing.

now I had less than $10 in the wrong item I sent and the 1st class shipping so it ain't about the $ or principle.

I doubt CS can do anything but send a STEARN note so I just wanted to know what don would do.[:D] but I think I know[xx(] or [B)], maybe [:X][8D]

    I would never screw you out of money (Unless I thought I could get away with it)

    That is what a publisher jokingly told me but truth is some people will do just that.

    Now, I admit i would too if the amount were say a million plus so I am no better than the guy that stole 10 bucks from you.
    My honor happens to be for sale just at a higher price.
    I mean if I am going to be disreputable I need at least that much to compensate my ego for having to look in the mirror an feel I got something for what I feel is a big deal to give up.

    This guy felt has honor was worth 10 bucks
    Wow, what low self esteem [:D]

    I have had people go out of there way to cheat me out of less than 20.00 several times , once a fellow told me he never got all the item(s) he paid for the package arrived all in it. but he reported some how a sealed package had one of the items missing ( no way in Hades ) but flebay refunded all his money before he even returned the other parts end of that no way to get redemption or any think back .
    other similar stories saddly too many dis honest people willing to cheat and lie like every thing else a few ruin it for all

    Yep, I agree.

    If you give feedback, expect reciprocity.

    BTW, Government has been screwing us out of our money and getting away with it since the 16th Amendment

    Never understood the mindset....If it is not yours then why would you keep it. I would know every time I looked at it I got it by screwing someone else....that would bother me.

    Rebel, if it ain't the money it IS the principle. And that jerk probably wears pants with rubber pockets so he can steal soup from starving orphans.
    Deals like this really tick me off!

    Many people felt that way prior to 1964. Afterwards began "The Great Society". Today and under Barrack Hussein Obama, we have massive wealth redistribution and government that does all the dirty work.
