Ebay Question

[frankbmd]

Typo in paypal address on Ebay makes it impossible to pay the seller. I guessed correctly which letter was omitted and now I am working with the seller to get things straightened out. Fortunately this does not appear to be a scam in any way. I think it will all work out to everyone's satisfaction.

The seller thinks working things out with Ebay will be a simple fix. I doubt making changes in a completed auction will be easy, but time will tell.

Not long ago, I got the same notice about a payment that hadn't been claimed. I emailed the seller, but never heard back. I had already received the item, for which I had paid $100. I cancelled the payment, as recommended by eBay, and don't know what else I can do. I wonder if something might have happened to the seller.

I only reached the seller because I guessed correctly what their email address was. Maybe I have a future as a psychic.

I once had this happen to me as a seller when I made a type-o inputting my paypal email id (in the eBay "sell an item" menu). I didn't catch the error until a day after the auctions had ended. One of the buyers was a bit psychotic about the error, but I've had worst days.

Lovely day...

Frank,
If that's the case, I could use a call before the Derby.

No problem. Call me Jeff, but I cannot remember my phone number.
