scam artist on ebay...

http://www.ebay.com/itm/scrap-gold-568-grams-of-gold-filled-watches-and-junk-for-hobbie-or-refine-/271872001787?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2047675.l2557&nma=true&si=vTUqnJ%252FcczO9SB1mPRaqXIri5jc%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc

i was unfortunately the one that bought it on a whim hoping that just a few of those pieces really were gold filled got it and its all crap.

contacted her about it and she said

May 31:
You sent a message
Message:
no you advertised the items as "gold filled" gold filled is a specific gold content. i got a box full of stainless steel and a few pieces of gold toned plastics, and base metals scrap gold , 568 grams of gold filled watches... there was not a single piece of gold filled in the entire lot to even justify mentioning gold filled.
May 30:
The seller sent you a message
Message:
these items auctioned as none working scrap, i did explain i do not know the gold type or content, but do know most all have plateing or gold in the watches "filled" i do not accept returns exept if you got the wrong order, in wich case i would be happy to refund or exchange.
May 29:
You requested a return
Reason for return:
It doesn't match the listing
Comments:
items were sold as gold filled. items received were cheap gold plated items or stainless steel and base metal. no gold filled items present in the entire batch. lot was misrepresented in the listing and i wish for my money back. i will be shipping item out sat 5/30/15 to the seller

and she had the nerve to attack the forum right out

Dear edgarsikes,

wow gold feaver much. no this was described perfactly and sold for far less the worth , im sorry your a scrapper looking to get your riches from gold , but i did not sale over 500 grams of solid gold for 50 bucks it all has gold in it, i dont care much for what your lingo in the minning world is, my ad was clear that i did not know how much, or type, and that i dont take returns. this is ebay not gold forum, these watches are of value to others in a auction at this price. you scrappers think its just for you. and must all be solid gold. get a grip buddy, i will refuse your package and have it returned to you. this was described perfactly to everyone in the world. exept a gold hunter hmmm. i think you have gold fever.

so i politely informed her that she was more than welcome to refuse the package but ebay's customer satisfaction guarantee would still take the money from her and give it back to me for intentionally misleading with a false advertisement.

She's mad because people keep filing claims on the junk she's selling.

With a feedback of 8 i doubt ebay has even released your money to her yet.

yeah im pretty sure of it myself ralph! didnt look at her f/b score before i bid and the pics werent at all clear. and man she was childish i only posted a couple of the messages, she cant get it through her head that gold filled, is actually a definable term and that it has meaning. even after i sent her the complete wikipedia page defining what gold filled is. and had the audacity to call ME the liar... hope ebay kicks her off the site...

 

[shmandi]

It is o.k. if she refuses the package. You will get to keep item and get money back.

 

[edsikes]

yeah she keeps telling me she "might" give me a refund.

im seriously going to see if i can get ebay to ban her.

i have an impeccable feedback rating thats a whole lot higher than hers and she dares to call me the liar.

I have has several people do similar things .
One chap Called Antony sent me eight karat instead of eighteen.
And to add insult to injury he also went into a rant about me being greedy.
The fact I had payed him very close to spot as the lot was meant to be a mix of dental and placer nugget's,which I though would be interesting to work on.was irrelevant to him.I was a chump and deserved to be screwed to a board.
That is the problem when trying to find material by remote,you can not tell much form a photo and depend on the other person having a modicum of class to them self's.
Still on the bright side he has given me license to visit D.C. and hunt a little long pig .

 

[edsikes]

but like i said the thing that pissed me off the most is when she went after the forum and kept calling us "dumb scrappers" not remotely taking into account the collective knowledge found here on this board could probably equate a masters degree in about 2 minutes. between advanced chemistry refining and assaying not to mention recycling and other techniques all combined. she probably tried to get on here at one time to sell junk and got kicked off or boo'd out. ill bet she couldnt spell pyrometallurgy let alone know what it means.

Don't let these people get to you Ed. This is there way. Their only option when caught out is to scream, shout, and put down the people who caught them.

Laughing at them incenses them.

oh im absolutely laughing at her now... got my refund and im pretty sure after talking to ebay for the last half an hour she wont be selling much longer. and on top of everything she used a positive feedback to try and leave a negative comment about me. which i got ebay to delete the comment but they left the feedback as positive! want to talk about her being incensed! not to mention i sent her a message with her feedback comment and corrected her atrocious spelling

WARNING a true theaf, and lier, does not pay, horrable ebayer WARNING

Glad you got your cash back Ed. 8)

Ed you didn't really leave that spelling when you were criticising hers did you now? Come on, tell Uncle Jon that you didn't...... :shock: :shock:

 

[goldenchild]

Not for nothin' but... when you process GF for a long time you can tell just by those pics that they aren't gold filled. You start to be able to see the difference between GF and plated just from appearence.

Edit: the clown already has it back up http://www.ebay.com/itm/scrap-gold-568-grams-of-gold-scrap-watches-and-junk-for-hobbie-or-refine/271890575866?_trksid=p2052191.m2338#ht_63wt_1238

Too much money to be made for ebay to ban a seller :roll:

 

[patnor1011]

"scrap gold junk , selling as scrap or not working. for repair or refine.

I do not know the karet or type of any gold or how much in this lot, also do not know if any is solid."

Me too do not know about "the karet" but dude should know already none of that is solid. :twisted:

that was her comment on my ebay listing not mine on hers. i would never spell like that. my spelling is normally spot on. my punctuation sucks but if i misspell something its usually because i fat fingered the keyboard

 

[edsikes]

and yes i saw several pieces werent but sometimes you get some really nice pieces in the "junk" lots. so. sometimes its worth while to take a stab at it, but there was nothing to even call gold filled to justify the listing title

edsikes I have looked at some of your auctions on ebay. Before I would call anyone a scammer I would look at some of the prices that you have posted for some of your auctions. From what I have seen you are right up there with the gold drop sellers.

You look for a unknowledgeable buyer on your auctions same as the gold drop sellers.

Just saying

edit to change buyer to seller

and i NEVER try to take advantage of unknowledgable buyers. if i did i dont think i would have quite so high a feedback rate on ebay. if your going to come out and say something like that you had BETTER back it up... incredibly rude
