Having purchased a large item on eBay I was hoping to pay for it via credit card but not Paypal so I could get airline miles through American Express, so I Buy It Nowed the thing and clicked “credit card” on check-out. Â I shortly got a note from the seller telling me to pay via credit card and I replied that I was waiting so he sent me an invoice. Â The invoice of course, simply contained the selling information. Â I replied that it didn’t contain the correct information, and in response got another invoice. Â I again asked how I could pay and sent, another invoice. Â All said and done I’ve received 5 invoices for the same item all containing the same information and am weighing just taking a point of negative feedback against trusting this man with my credit card number.

I wanted to offer a specific card, Chaos Orb as a prize for a tournament I’m holding today. Â After I won one on eBay on Tuesday I emailed the seller to see if I could picking it up directly from him after discovering his house was practically on the way to the tournament site. Â I received no response until Thursday whereas they stated they didn’t like pick-ups as they had a problem with one previously, he then states he can express mail it to me. Â Okay, how much I think, nothing… So, instead of me picking up the card and paying in cash, the fellow instead spend 23 dollars to have something overnighted a net distance of 16 miles plus the fact they now had to pay paypal fees. Â w00t efficiency!
