Thread: Trademe defraud?

If someone is going to sell something (anything) online with a Buy Now option, they should have something in place to send it immediately payment is made.

If they know they're not going to be in the country when the auction is going to finish, they are simply being wankers if they haven't made arrangements to send it.

I got a red face on trademe from a guy I tried to buy a tool off. Needed it that week, he was relativity local and had a buy now and pick up options listed. Hit buy now, paid immediately and emailed for the collection address.

"Sorry. I'm on holiday for a fortnight. Be back after the school holidays"

Then he got snotty when I reversed the Visa transaction and cancelled the trade. Cunt.
