I bought a photoshop Elements 2 CD on ebay that ended on the 13th of October. I paid it through paypal that same day. 2 weeks later, I still had not received it, so I wrote to the seller. He wrote back saying he was so sorry and that he had totally forgotten to mail it and would get it in the mail right away and I'd have it in 2, 3 days at the most. Anyway, I was nice and wrote that I'm understanding and know that lives can get hectic at times and mistakes happen. I should have had it last Monday or Tuesday if he had mailed it as he promised. I wrote him again on Wednesday or so to say I haven't received it and my patience is drawing thin. Never heard back from him so yesterday I went into pay pal resolution center and filed a complaint, which was three weeks after the payment for my item.

This is the email he sent me that I got today: Subject: Ebay Item

Ok this thing you did with paypal is rediculous...absolutely
rediculous...your item is IN the mail...it is going to your house, also take note to this...it is not my fault your project is past its deadline, you NEVER informed me you HAD to have it immediately, what you have to take into
consideration is other peopls lifes...possibly I have been incredibly busy and have had no time what so ever to go to the post office to mail 1 cd...im not about to jeopardize other things that I HAVE to do in my life to mail out 1 CD...I mailed it when I was able to mail it! Had you told me you had to have it immediately...then it would have been a completely different story! Now you have screwed up everything that I have going on with ebay and paypal...my hundreds of dollars in my paypal account supposed to be going to my bank to pay the bills at the end of the month, that has been stopped because of your completely uneeded behavor...this is truley remarkable...I told you awhile it was in the mail...IT IS IN THE MAIL this
is all I have time for, I have to go and take of business, this is absolutely aggrovating and frustating to no end...if im late on my bills by the middle of the month...you better believe im filing a law suite!!!!
unneeded behavior

This was my response to him...the nerve of that man!

What I think is ridiculous is your excuses and threatening me with a law suit! Nowhere in your description of this auction did you say you wouldn't be mailing this for 3 weeks or more. When I pay for something, I expect it to be mailed soon thereafter and that I receive it in a timely manner. I gave you the benefit of the doubt once I heard back from you apologizing for forgetting to mail it, and that you would mail it right away and I would have it by Monday or Tuesday, Nov 1st, at the latest. Those days came and gone with no CD. I also waited another 3 days to file with the resolution center of Paypal. If you cannot take out time to make a trip to the post office with the ebay items you have sold, then you should not be selling on ebay. Most sellers, including myself, go to the post office with what we have sold, the day we receive payment or the next day. Never would I think of just waiting until I had the time...like it is a big bother. It may seem like a bother, but it is common courtesy and I the responsibility of the seller!

You are a very rude person and I shall be forwarding your email to paypal. I am very slow to anger, but you have pissed me off. You lied to me when you said you'd mail it at the two week point. We are neighboring states and it shouldn't take more than 2 days, 3 days at the most to receive it. It was not my behavior that caused you your problems...it was YOUR behavior and you can't blame anyone but yourself.

While typing this email, I received the package. Finally! It was postmarked November 3rd...a week after you promised to mail it. I will resolve the matter with paypal, but you can count on negative feedback from me! I have never before dealt with a seller as rude as you! By the way...maybe you should consider using spellcheck in future emails! Also...want you to know your email was forwarded to friends and family who are all laughing their butts off.

I'm sorry I ever did business with you and you can rest assured it will never happen again.
