eBay non paying bidder alert: vanillex1984 / Saoirse on here. RESOLVED

[partypony566]

This matter is resolved as of now, she paid and her pony is on it's way to her.

I sold a pony to this person, she did a BIN 4 days ago and has ignored my messages and invoices and now today I have opened a case. She literally hit the best offer and then it seems she has disappeared.

I don't mind waiting even up to a week for payment if people let me know but by ignoring me it sets alarm bells ringing.

Just thought I would give a heads up. This is a uk buyer with 0% feedback.

Eta: Ok I have reason to believe that this person is a member on here, I recognise her real name and after a few enquiries I'm 99.9% certain who this person is.

I will give them a chance to come forward and respond to this thread  and if not I will be leaving appropriate feedback here also to warn others.

  Thanks for the heads up Party.

Is she a member here? "Vanillex" looks familiar...

[achab1984]

That sucks!!! I saw that 1984 and was like what! Oh wait that is not me, I would never do something like that!

Ugh thanks for the warning!

I know....I keep thinking I've seen that name before too.

I hate people like this. If they have buyer's remorse, they need to just communicate.

[Shiromisa]

Yeek! That double sucks, usually when a best offer of mine gets accepted, I'm just excited to get a deal. :c

[ponylady]

I am sorry Party. I hope that he/she comes forward with an explanation on why payment has not been made.

[partypony566]

Unfortunately I have received no payment or any contact and I have extremely reliable sources that tell me this is the member Saoirse on here and that they recognise her PO BOX address, and her real name is the same.

It's so annoying for me, because I have purchased my wedding dress and all proceeds from ponies are going towards it, so selling a pony for £50 and then not receiving payment sucks big time.

I had this problem with Saoirse last year at this time (it took me a bit to clue in because she changed her user name).  It was frustrating because it was a partial trade.  She sent her pony, but never sent the balance of payment, and wouldn't respond to PMs, so I couldn't even sell the one I had to someone else.  It was also around $50, and right before Christmas.  She did finally contact me after I started a Trader Support thread.  I ended up leaving neutral feedback, as it was worked out in the end, but communication was poor.

Ugh...what is with these people that don't pay...

[Siiri]

She wanted to buy a pony and a playset from me a while ago. Communication was poor and eventually I ended up sending her a message I will sell them elsewhere. Got tired of waiting

I have bought ponies from her before and it went smoothly, don't know what has happened..

Same here. I bought Baby Dancing Butterflies from her earlier in the year and I was really happy with how everything went. She was really nice and had great communication. That's why I'm so surprised to see this thread. I'm sorry this has happened partypony566. I hope it all gets sorted out soon!

Oh, that's weird.  That's exactly who she bought from me last January.  She never did let me know that she arrived, so I guess she did.
