. Banning him from the forum really wouldn't serve much use. He could sign up with a new account, change his IP or whatever.

Have you called up your credit card company?

Excuse me if I missed something, I haven't read the middle pages.

Any updates? You'll probably win the paypal dispute if he doesn't have enough evidence to show.

I found it funny that the pics that is on his FS page have a "Do fish get thirsty? Take the dumb test now." link.

Just thought I'd keep everyone updated, still have not received anything. He has not been on since 03-11-2009 05:11 AM and has not contacted me. Visa won't let me file a case because it's a paypal transaction, but I could call the rcmp fraud office and see what they can do tomorrow.

Any other suggestions?

PS I don't think that is his ebay account because that account was opened on Aug-08-98 and he is only 20. That would have to mean he opened it when he was 9 which I highly doubt.

Also I have won the paypal dispute but they have only been able to recover $16.78 CAD which I think was still on his account. I doubt they would be able to get the rest because he probably already transferred it to his bank.

That does suck.. But many people jump the gun. Ebay f'ed up.. 2 people won the same item. I didn't think nothing of it. I shipped it to the first address.. Then I got a PM about, wheres my game.. Then I realized, there was a screw up.. I told him. He had a right to be angry. I offered him a choice of 2 other games, free shipping.. Next thing I know, he filed a dispute? All he had to do was ask for his MONEY BACK!! I was going there next anyways. I even proved to him that there were 2 winners.. C/P my pay pal billing.. Both won at the same exact time.. All ends good. He gave me positive feedback & thanked me for refunding his money.

Two winners!? How does that even happen? Nice to hear it ended well though.

Well I can see that happening as some people don't have verified addresses or paypal accounts. I'm still waiting on a $20 refund from Paypal for over 3 years since I won a case. Anything else I can do?

Congratulations. I am glad everything turned up OK. Could you again post the guys name and information? also, make sure to post your complaints in the feedback thread.

Yep. For anyone wandering, his user name is Hellacious D and I bought the headphones on 2/18/2009 and got them on 4/1/2009. It's ok though because I got $16.78 back from paypal and I think that's a shipping discount for the long wait.

They work perfect and sound great.
