my first e-bay burning!

[oldyak]

I had been looking and looking for a sunroof switch for my 1989.
Found a seller on e-bay that had just what I needed!
Now,3 weeks later no switch,no response from the seller and...to make matters worse,Paypal ..since you cant file a complaint through e-bay(what a racket)doesnt recognise my transaction I.D.
So,as of now I am out $69.00......
I have been buying things on e-bay for 10 years and this is the first time I have had a problem!
But with what I am going through to get this resolved,I will be VERY wary to continue to shop there.
by the way...anyone out there have a sunroof switch????

Exactly!! I use paypal for everything. I sent the deposit for my 91 Plus thru paypal. If you didnt receive the switch file a dispute with paypal. The seller will have to prove he sent it out. If not you will get your money back. Its very easy.

If your transaction cannot be recognized online, make a call and speak with a representive through PayPal.

FYI, PayPal is eBay...

Can't really add more than what the previous 2 members said, but you paid $69 for a sunroof switch? :|

That's where you got burned.
