Update 14.08.14:

After being told on the 11th that my seller doesn't get tracking numbers for his items until a few days after they're sent, I get this tracking number just a moment ago:

http://www.canadapost.ca/cpotools/apps/track/personal/findByTrackNumber?trackingNumber=7254877034988578

Now, it says the label was created today by my seller. Does this mean the system just didn't register it until today, or does that actually mean he didn't even make the label until today?

I'm getting really nervous, because I only have until Sunday night to escalate this case and tomorrow is the last shipping day before the weekend. If anyone can shed some light on this or how I should take things from here I'd really be grateful!

ETA: He's still only updating via email, he still hasn't added a tracking number or a second response to the PayPal case.

Update 05.08.14:

My parcel arrived today, but it only contained one set of dolls (I paid for two). I'm really nervous and confused because I explicitly asked about combined shipping when I bought them and he combined shipping on the invoice for me. Wow am I ever glad I opened that case! I don't think there's much chance that he shipped them separately :\ The guy has amazing feedback, but I'm not impressed in the least.


-------------------------------------

So yesterday I opened a case against an eBay re-seller of SDCC exclusives because his communication has been terrible and it was my 45th day for the PP window. I understand now it's because he's swamped himself with so many sales that he can't keep up with inquiries from his buyers. Here is what he had to say in response:

Hi there - i am extremely behind on my ebay messages because of comic-con and have not seen your message yet. I understand that you are nervous, but you have opened a case on an item that is not even scheduled to be delivered yet. When buyers do this, I find this incredibly suspicious and quite frankly, it is not fair to me. I have purchased these and shipped these and now all of the money is being with held. These items have shipped and I am incredibly busy and have not been able to get a tracking number up and at this point, it will take a day or two, as I am on the road. By opening a case, this leaves a negative mark on my account, so it is unfair to a buyer to open a case, especially since there is no way you would have received this by now.

I understand you are new to this, but I have excellent feedback and ship hundreds of presales a week. Again, these items are not even scheduled to be delivered. I have just been incredibly busy dealing with over 400 hundred items going out in the past 3 days. I appreciate your concern over the matter, but opening a case on an item that is not scheduled to be delivered yet unnecessarily harms my account. Please let me know, thank you.

I've had people open cases against me on eBay before and I know how much it sucks and all, but if I don't stand my ground on this I'm not covered if those items get damaged or lost in the shipping process. I'm really just regretting not waiting until closer to the con, I could have just avoided all of this. I don't like that he feels suspicious of me, and I'd hate to harm his account in anyway (if what's highlighted in bold is in fact true). Do you think I should close the case and cut the guy a break? Opinions would be greatly appreciated as I'm really torn on what choice to make here.

Hey folks, I'm looking for the following ponies in extremely good to mint condition (would prefer loose for shipping purposes, but will consider boxed). If you have any of them for sale please pm me with your price(s), thanks for reading

I found these gals on Kijiji today and was wondering their worth? There are plenty more photos in the spoiler to assess flaws etc (two spots of pearl coating loss on Glorys NDS for example). They don't appear to have hair cuts and have very minimal loss to their pearl coating ^^ any hints on value would be appreciated

If you do, mind showing yours off for me? I just discovered her available on Nici's website last night and ordered the 50 cm version I'm super excited! I would love to see in-hand photos of this girl, I found a couple on Google images but I'm dying for more!

Someone from Australia bought a plush from me in mid October off eBay and I had to send it via Surface (cheapest option with tracking). It still hasn't arrived and she opened up a case against me which leaves my Paypal in the negative over $70 ($25 of that was profit). I called Paypal and made sure they knew there was tracking, I added the tracking number to the Paypal case, and also linked the buyer to the tracking page in my response to the case. She's not budging and is not going to close this case. Now, Christmas is coming and I need my freaking Paypal ;__; I tried tracking it using Australia post, but it wont recognize the number. Now, this case has up until the 16th for her to make a full claim, so my question to you is- will Paypal find in my favour, even if the tracking number doesn't show the item as being delivered yet? I checked the number on a global site, and it tells me the number is expired I'm now worried it may not even update if the item does arrive in time. I really want to escalate and let Paypal take care of it, but I'm scared they'll find in her favour if the tracking number doesn't show the item as being delivered yet. Surface can take up to 6 weeks or more and I'm terrified to be out such a large amount for the little profit I made! I wont get those fee payments back, either. Can anyone put my mind at ease on this one?

Hey pony people~

I got a pm on Saturday from someone asking about a few of my ponies, I replied that I'd get back to them asap with a quote and they said no rush. I sent them the shipping quote last night; I didn't get a reply, so I sent another message to them this morning explaining that I'm looking to put a lot of ponies up on eBay and wanted to know if they still wanted the ones they asked about. I see that both PM's have been read and the user in question was last active 2 minutes ago. How long would be appropriate to wait for a reply after a PM has been read before going ahead with selling them elsewhere? I'll gladly sell her the ponies, but I'd like to get that lot posted as soon as possible ;^^ Thanks for reading!

The link to my eBay auctions is over in sales. Thanks to all who bought and traded!
