- June 10th, 2008, 8:44 pm#51677He just sent a refund. Here are the messages as they were posted in the paypal dispute. Judge for yourself. Oh yeah the part where he said I would "threaten" him. I told him I would post a pic of his item here and let everyone know what they were getting. He must get the words reputation and threaten confused. Either way, I would steer clear.

I ordered an accurate to the movie machined aluminum(as my payment states) V-hook. I received a dixie cup holder half and a part that fits that. Significantly not what I ordered. I contacted the seller and asked about a refund, and was denied. I also asked about why the hook was not what I ordered. I was informed, "that what I make". I paid in the price range of a film accurate piece and got something not worth anything to me, and not as described. Then I was informed by the seller to not contact him anymore if I was filing with paypal. I dont know how else to resolve this. I just want to send it back and get my money back. Thank you.

I have already send you a refund for $50.00 from the $106.00 you sent for the shock mount. I'm going to go ahead to give you your little $56.00 which it's for the v-hook.
I have already contacted paypal and if you need to escalate this report you can go ahead and do it as I have all your emails including the one with the one you were threatening me. Paypal have been notified that you already received the refund for $50.00. I'm giving you this refund because I figure that you really need it, lol as well as I like for you to go on with your life and don't EVER email me again. Keep the part and do what ever you like with it.
You send payment via Paypal on Apr. 25, 2008 in the amount of $106.00
I refund you $50.00 via Paypal on May 14, 2008 for the Shock Mount
I'm refunding you the remaining $56.00 for the V-Hook
(His shock mount, aka ion knob, was horribly inaccurate and dull in color. I asked for a refund for that seconds after I paid. My fault on the whole deal)

you'll receive the $56.00 remaining today 6/10/08 and make sure you don't email me again.

I absolutely refuse to take a refund and keep the item. I will be sending the item back registered mail. I do need the refund. So I can buy an accurate part finally. Obviously you feel guilty or you would not have refunded the item and told me to keep it. So the desperation in your messages shows the kind of seller you are. You were caught trying to pull a fast one. I have no reason to make a claim with paypal, as long as you sign for the item when it is returned to you. I will not communicate with you again, other than through this message system.
Exoray said it best. READ THE DESCRIPTIONS AND LOOK AT THE PICS...Hope no one else gets hosed by this shit.
