team flex Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 well hes been offline since the 2nd. I think he may have done a runner. How much did you pay him? and do you have any of his contact details?
Carrel Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 When in doubt pull your cash out. I would If I were you. You can always send it back to you when the RIF arrives, then explain that since he hadn't been in contact or reachable you felt it necessary. I'm sure everyone here would agree.
Moose87 Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 well which gun did you buy as hes got a few for sale??
Moose87 Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 seems like hes sold a few things recently i think just keep on at him, it could be a simple misunderstanding. if you dont here anything soon then contact admins to have his sales locked but i dont think hes a rip off bloke.
PurplePanda2123 Posted September 7, 2014 Author Posted September 7, 2014 Ok thanks it was £80 at least it wasnt £200 but he seemed like a good guy but we will soon find out.
Supporters Sitting Duck Posted September 7, 2014 Supporters Posted September 7, 2014 http://www.airsoft-forums.co.uk/index.php/topic/22926-willburnett/ took about a week to arrive - not exactly pronto, was gonna contact him but then it turned up as described, some on here like straffham ship stuff really bloomin' fast I myself have dragged my heels a bit a few times over the years see if anything turns up monday is all I can say
Dan88 Posted September 7, 2014 Posted September 7, 2014 I'm so impatient haha. I'd of probably already filed a complaint JamesAirsofterAgent 1

Cheeky vimto Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Raise a dispute. If it shows up you can always cancel it.
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted September 10, 2014 Supporters Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) Don't tell PayPal that it is for an RIF - guns and replica guns are not covered by their buyer protection policy - we have discussed this in the staff room before, but nobody has been able to ascertain whether airsoft guns are excluded due to being RIF's. If I were you I would just say "Sporting Equipment", which is not a lie, although this is not a forum policy simply my own opinion. But yeah, no word after this long is a problem. It matters not whether he is dodgy, lazy, or incapacitated, it's been too long to give anyone the benefit of the doubt. Raise a claim through PP.

Snakeeyes75 Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 When you paid did you send the funds as a gift? If you did then there's not a lot that can be done (Trust me, my other hobby is buying toys from all over the world). If you sent is as "For goods" then Paypal will be able to get the money back. Did the payment draw from a Visa card? if so you're also covered by Visa. I had an issue earlier in the year with an item than I pre-ordered & six months later I was still waiting, paypal wouldn't act as it had been more than 30 days (If I remember correctly) but Visa give you 6 months, they instantly gave me my money back then claimed it back against paypal!
