rockpirat1973 on ebay from Austria


Recommended Posts

So basically, got my money back via my Paypal dispute and he is acting like he refunded it and is demanding me to remove the feedback. I'm curious to hear what others here would do?

 

I would NOT remove the negative feedback.

 

Did he still have items listed on eBay when he was supposedly on vacation for 3 weeks :unsure:

IMO, negative feedback should also be left if this was the case!!

Definitely a good point.

 

In any case, it sounds like he deserves the negative. If he persists in emailing you, report him to EBAY.

 

Hey, do you have a link to his feedback? I am curious as to what type of feedback he is getting now.

Yes, it is Christoph Baumgartner

 

Just got an email from him, he says he was on vacation for 3 weeks and apologized and sent me the tracking number. Good news is he shipped it and it has been delivered. Bad news is that I looked it up and he sent the CD to Alexandria, Virginia and I live in Lawrence, Kansas. So he sent it to the wrong address (or he sent me the wrong tracking number)....to be continued.....stay tuned.

 

OK, I sent him an email on Friday telling him the tracking number he sent was wrong or he mailed my CD to the wrong place. I wait all weekend, no reply. Finally I email on Monday again asking him if was on vacation again. I get an email back from him saying that he refunded my money so take back the negative feedback on ebay. Well, turns out he didn't just refund my money, I won my Paypal dispute so Paypal gave me my money back, he didn't just go and refund it like he tried to make it sound like he did. So maybe he would have and maybe he wouldn't have? Anyway, I got another email today basically demanding I take the bad feedback off because I got my money back now (all in bold red letters in the email even). I'm inclined to just ignore him for a while....then tell him no. I don't think I should have to remove it just because Paypal gave me my money back, its been a bitch getting him to reply to any messages (even if he did go on vacation, you mean to tell me he didn't check his email for 3 weeks?, I just have a hard time buying that).

I'd tell the guy to go fuck himself. This has sounded wrong from the beginning...first he ignores you forever...then he claims he's been on vacation (bet he finally got back when that paypal claim got filed, huh)...then he sends you the wrong tracking number. Here's what it sounds like he does...he charges for registered mail, only sends a few of his packages that way & pockets the rest. Then if somebody requests a tracking number he can at least give them something.

 

Heck, at least he went through the trouble to make up all these excuses with you...I never heard back from the guy when I dealt with him.

I think you are being too harsh on Christoph. There are a lot of people on this board, who never had any problems with him. Things do go wrong sometimes, you know, and it isn't always the seller's fault.

 

Also, you need to keep in mind that here in Germany and Austria people have a lot more holidays than in the US and that school kids over here have 6 weeks vacation in summer. So it is highly possible that Christoph was gone for 3 weeks recently.

 

Just my 2 cents ....

Sorry, but somebody not checking their email for 3 weeks is completely unbelieveable. Especially somebody who sells a lot on ebay.

 

Well, I agree that he shouldn't have been selling on ebay in the first place, if he was planning to go away for that long.

I just went to my inlaws in Northern Ontario and they don't have the net, so for 18 days I was cut off from the computer world. It's possible and very painful not to have access to the net. I came home to over 50 messages and spam. Most of the spam was trying to sell me viagra and penis enlargement products........so which one of you is sending me all this crap.

 

I made sure everything with my Ebay front was cleared up before going. So no auctions a month before leaving.....it was a long month.

My last auction just last week was so-so in results. I decided to open up an Ebay store to sell off most of my remaining things. One in a while I'll do an auction. So far I've only listed about 50 things. It's slow going and I'll have to be patient with it. If the store ends up being a bust, I'll go back to the auction format. So few people are still doing auctions, I'm not sure they'll (auctions) even be around on Eaby in a few years.

 

Speaking of my last auction, guess which person hasn't yet paid me or contacted me....rockpirat1973. :whistle:

Yes it seems so, I even emailed him to post here on HH for his auctions. Somehow I don't see that happening now.

Things must be real bad with him or he's gone on some freakin' loooooonnnnnnnnnggggggggg holidays. After patiently waiting since the end of the auction for payment or any sign on life from his side of things, I decided to open an unpaid item case for the items he hasn't paid for. I really don't care for Austrian bidders.

How long has it been since your auction, Dave?

So, you are having troubles with him too. Too bad, he seemed to be a great buyer/seller for a long time now. Well, I got my money back so I'm just grateful for that.

I guess I just want to reiterate my point...that I never thought the dude didn't send me my CD, he just was really crappy about replying back to any of my inquiries (including Paypal complaints). He blamed it on being on vacation, which my or may not have been legitimate, but it is certainly plausible (even though it seems weird somebody wouldn't check email for weeks on end, but I've already mentioned that in previous posts). I was just curious as to if anyone else had problems with dealing with him. So I've never said he was a scam artist or anything like that, I was just trying to feel out if I should be concerned about no CD after waiting over a month and no replies to my inquiries. And to date as of today, the CD still never has arrived, so I'm sure he sent it to the wrong address like I said before.

 

So even though I probably won't take back my negative feedback because I think it is important for others to know I had a bad experience as a buyer dealing with him, I just want to say that I'm probably the exception, not the rule with this seller. But he does seem to be having some type of issues as of late with other people besides me.

Does he do his business on his holidays too? I received a message this morning that he just listed some new auctions on ebay...
