The guy seemed a little shady, but he was a Verified Paypal Member and I shipped the bumper to his Confirmed Address in FL. Hell, I even talked to him on the phone. Well, at least that's what I pay those totally exorbitant fees to Paypal for, right? WRONG. They found the loophole. I shipped it 8 days after he paid for it (my Grandma was in the hospital), and in order to qualify for Seller Protection you have to ship w/in 7 days of payment. The one #&%@-ing time I ship out an item in more than three or four days, I get blasted for $250. I'm fighting this all the way to wall w/ Paypal and if that doesn't work, I'm going to FL to get my bumper back. One way or another.

Sorry all...just needed to vent... And drop a friendly reminder that we all need to constantly cover our a$$es in this lovely world and to trust no one. Especially anything corporate.

Cheers,

Send Me His Address And I Will The Boys Down To Visit Him
