Ebay Auction
Hey dudes,
Above is the auction I've completed. I bid on it Friday, got outbid, and then yesterday received a Second Chance auction. I checked out the BIN numbers for both the original auction, and the second chance auction. They were diffrent, like they're susposed to be. I clicked on the buy it now option, and completed the transaction. It showed up in "my ebay" like it's susposed to. I hopped on paypal after receiving my reciept, and paid the full amount. A few hours later I received this email:
So far so good right?
So I'm poking around the transaction details and I notice something.....beside his user name in ebay, it now reads "no longer a registered user".....hmmmmm..... ok. So thats one thing. The next thing was when I looked at my reciept for the transaction is was made out to rnikkel1@mts.net Then I hop onto Paypal and it's made out to djrazor2069@mts.net
I looked up both of the profiles on paypal and turns out they are identical.....like opened the same day, both canadian verified, everthing is the same....but diffrent addresses. wierd......
So I sent him this email:
I havent heard anything yet.
What do you guys think? The transaction seems to be going alright, but some of these things dont match up. It's got me pretty nervous.

Thanks again

Hey there,
Sorry to bug you, but one more question:
your e-mail address is rnikkel1@mts.net, my paypal reciept is for
rnikkel1@mts.net, but when I go into the details of this transaction, it
says the payment is going out to a Ramone Nikkel (djrazor2069@mts.net). both
of these e-mail address have the same status, and were opened on the same
day (july 07, 2005) Can you please explain this? I am confused.
I need you to get back to me tonight about this. There are some things with
this transaction that I am becoming uncomfortable with. Nothing at all
against you, but for one, there is the conflicting e-mail addresses, second
is the fact that you are now "not a registered user" of e-bay, and third,
the rediculously low price you are selling the laptop for (not that I have a
problem with the price, but the laptop is worth twice that amount).
Please don't take this personally, but I might have no choice but to cancel
the bank transfer as soon as tonight if this cannot be cleared up. I
apologise, but you have to understand my position. I can do one thing for
you though, if for some reason you don't get this email in time and I
cancell the transaction, if you can clear up these conflictions and also
send me a few more pics of the unit, I will be more than happy to re-do the
transaction (you'd have to send me another second chance offer).
So please, if you can, reply to this email a.s.a.p. and we can go ahead with
this transaction as planned.
Thanks very much and I'm truly sorry for any inconvienience.
Ryan.
