    PayPal Tells Buyer To Destroy Purchased Violin Instead Of Return For Refund

    That's not true at all. It's possible for a buyer to file a complaint without contacting the seller first, even though it's suggested.

    PayPal Tells Buyer To Destroy Purchased Violin Instead Of Return For Refund

    PayPal didn't destroy it - they had the buyer do it and take a picture.

    PayPal Tells Buyer To Destroy Purchased Violin Instead Of Return For Refund

    I wouldn't expect PayPal to front the expense to have it appraised, but I don't see how they could order the item destroyed since they haven't had it appraised and it doesn't even belong to them. I can see them ordering the buyer to have it appraised on their dime and then that amount deducted...

    PayPal Tells Buyer To Destroy Purchased Violin Instead Of Return For Refund

    I think it's outrageous for PayPal to order an item to be destroyed and not returned, because PAYPAL is determining it's counterfeit based upon a BUYER report, not a third-party professional appraiser, etc. There was no proof in this case that the item was "counterfeit" but even so, let's say...

    PayPal Tells Buyer To Destroy Purchased Violin Instead Of Return For Refund

    From Regretsy.com "mailbag": ...I sold an old French violin to a buyer in Canada, and the buyer disputed the label. This is not uncommon. In the violin market, labels often mean little and there is often disagreement over them. Some of the most expensive violins in the world have disputed...

    Sears to close more stores as holiday sales slump

    A big problem for me is that when they screwed up my order for a major appliance and I wanted to cancel the order which I had placed online, it took me dozens of phone calls to call centers I don't even know where. I kept getting bounced around and transferred...it was maddening. Finally after a...

    Sears to close more stores as holiday sales slump

    The economy affects spending, yes, but Macy's sales are up this year.

    Sears to close more stores as holiday sales slump

    (Obviously the new Kardashian Kollection [ew] for Sears couldn't save them.)

    Sears to close more stores as holiday sales slump

    They need to stop blaming the economy. A search of dozens of threads in the FL show just how much of their quality & service has declined over the years! Many of us have looked through old catalogs and recall the way they used to be so that we have a good comparison for how much they have...

    anyone wear grey hair?

    Thanks... From the products I've seen online, Henna isn't good for covering gray on dark hair.

    anyone wear grey hair?

    It did absolutely nothing to my gray strand. It wasn't even slightly darker; if it was I'd think it could be gradually stained. Maybe it will work on others hair but I'm glad I didn't waste my time doing a full head soak!

    anyone wear grey hair?

    DonW it's nice to hear from those who love gray! Also, love the story about the gray in back girl. :) So I poured cooled coffee into a small Tupperware container, placed a gray hair in it, covered it and shook it well. Will repeat shaking every five minutes for an hour...

    anyone wear grey hair?

    So I came up with the idea that to try it out I am going to simply pluck a gray hair and put it in a cup of coffee to see what happens! I will report back.

    A "Picker" just called...

    That's right. If you are serious about collecting, you "have" to seriously swallow your pride sometimes and buy from the people you swore you'd never do business with again (and swear at quietly as you hand them the money). This used to bother me a lot but I don't take it too seriously so that I...

    A "Picker" just called...

    Absolutely true. A "picker" would never throw or give something away for a pittance unless they had explored all possible avenues, and one of them is the playing naive to make you think they have a valuable possession. I know because I have many picker friends and have been suckered in before.

    Christmas without Christ? Huh?

    This is a lil bit off topic, but I'd like to see Kinkade (Thomas) left OUT of Christmas! Also, glitter cards. Bah.

    Christmas without Christ? Huh?

    I see I commented in 2006 but want to add: http://www.hulu.com/watch/4732/saturday-night-live-hanukkah-harry Lots of non-Christians love the spirit of Christmas, too. Also, we have many popular classic Christmas songs written by Jewish people...
