It's sad really that this could all have been much nicer for everyone involved on here. You could have advertised the items and taken any requests for parts on here for free ( l mean avoiding eBay and PayPal fees not giving away parts
), and built up trust that way. Instead you have come on here accusing one of our most liked and well respected forum members of lieing or having some agenda of harming your business, which I find frankly ludicrous. Then it turns out that another sale to another well liked and respected member of our forum has had a problem with a sale of an item from yourself and you are saying that you are requesting eBay and PayPal to send you records. You need only go into your PayPal archive online to see every payment to and from your account, and I believe you can filter dates too.
I'm not looking to pick a fight, but since we are the biggest group of panda owners in the UK and therefore probably your entire customer base it would have been a better idea on your part to come on here and have a nicer attitude is all. We have all been caught out by dodgy sellers on eBay, myself included, and since we are such a close knit helpful and friendly group we try to stop each other getting screwed over. I don't know if you have or havent been a dodgy seller, but you can't blame people for being cautious. Not trying to be harsh, just trying to stop you before you completely alienate your customer base, you can turn this thing around if its a misunderstanding I'm sure.
onemanmade,
All I have done within this thread is express my views based on the information available to me. As you know the other members of this forum, you are privy to more information than myself.
It has not been my intention to impugn the expressed views of any members of this forum, the problem that I faced was that
homeward was broadcasting views that I had done something wrong without saying what that something was. This left me in a position where I was unable to address these apparent issues.
All i've been trying to do is to get to the bottom of the issues in order to bring closure to both sides. Andy has now finally come out and into the open and expressed his problem, which I shall address later in this post.
I wasn't previously aware of the fiat forum until some on facebook brought this thread to my attention.
eBay like any other sales venue is less than perfect and contains a small minority of dodgy buyers and sellers, both of which I have lost out to on various occasions. I always remember my grandfathers wise words of "you win some and you loose some" and "life goes on"
Alixcompo the problem I had with the simple invoice search was I have only sent 97 invoices numbered from 2 and 98. I then searched my all transactions view, which only went back as far as january this year. So im currently in the process of obtaining records from paypal going back further than this.
AndyPanda4x4 Thank you for finally coming out into the open on this issue, it would have been nice if you could have done this earlier. I have run checks on my both my ebay and paypal accounts using your facebook ID of "Andy Berryman", please let me know if i've got this wrong. I've taken screen shots of the results which are posted as follows.
Regarding the issue of my previous account, I stopped using that account in around 2006 after loosing my internet access following injuries sustained from a car accident. I subsequently forgot the username and passwords, by this stage my email account had been closed due to loss of the internet account. My girlfriend set our current ebay account up in 2008.
The only records I have of dealing with an "Andy Berryman" are a friendship request, which I accepted, followed by a brief exchange of messages via facebook over fiat panda parts that I had available for sale (screenshot attached).
If Andy and my self have had any dealings through my previous email account then were now talking about things that happened 8 years ago. 8 years ago I was still running fiat pandas, so I certainly wasn't selling parts as I needed them for myself. I dont think it would be beneficial for any of us to be going back that far.
In conclusion, I hope that I have now addressed the issues, bar Alix's as im still in the process of acquiring full facts before making a decision.
