AB4XA - Gerald - Did NOT keep his part of the bargain
Posted: Sat Oct 22, 2011 11:03 pm
I bought an LDG 4:1 balun from Gerald. We agreed on a price, including shipping. Within a few hours, I sent my PayPal for the agreed upon amount. Next day, I receive an email from Gerald stating "I sold it locally" and my PayPal was returned.
Once a seller has accepted an offer and buyer sends a PayPal, seller is obligated to deliver the goods unless there are extraordinary circumstances. "Selling to a local buyer" just doesn't cut any ice. Anyone who pulls this on Ebay merits negative feedback and that should be true in this venue as well. There was not alot of money involved and you could say it's not that big of a deal. But a deal is a deal and both sides must honor their obligations for the system to work as intended.
