Title: ****Mtljohn's (100) about to take a hit****
Post by: johnmtl on October 15, 2012, 10:35 pm
So it looks like soon maybe within the next few hours my nice (100) rank will take a hit agian...

This time it wont be from someone who got his product and left a 3/5 because he "though it would be better"

Nope... This time a package with 1 gram got "lost" and the buyer wants a 50% refund... his stats are weak at best.

So... he/she orders a gram and takes the regular mail option..( I clearly state in my listing that there is no guarantee on regular mail options)

The package supposedly never arrives.... I offer the client to place a new order and I will send the "lost" gram to be a nice guy...I explained to the client that this is against my policy and that I would need him to take a track and trace option for any further purchases.

he declined and asked for a 50% refund...

I told him I cant do that and that I offered him the best I could under the circumstances...

I assume I will take a hit in my ranking soon... but for real.. I cant give back any money... Thats foolish.. if the client is scamming me and I give him back some money I have now became his/her bitch and i just cant have that... Cant have the flood gates open!!!!!

Anyways.. just thought I'd address it because I know its gonna come up...

BTW... this is not the first regular mail package to go missing, shit happens.. but the 2 others had no problem placing a new order and were totally satisfied.

I guess I'm just venting but this shit kinda sucks...

Try to stay positive Mtljohn, not all of us are bad!
I think you handled it properly and 90% of the people would be more than happy with your offer.
And although ratings are important, what's more important is your existing customer base - if they are happy, they will stick by you and will recommend you to more new clients.

Best of luck! (And I hope my package from you will arrive soon  ;) )

Mtljohn,
I would change it mate, if anybody with stats that are not near perfect,
and they use regular mail, --no fucking refund man. If they are too tight to
pay the extra bit for tracing or whatever option you have, they are deliberately
planning to get something for nothing, or they don't crae about the security of their package.
People like this you can do without, if it's happening in a certain country, insist that those
customers use tracking. No proof of mail going missing --no fucking refund dipshit.

That may have come across a bit strong, but i feel strongly about it man, its the few fuckwads
that do this that make vendors ask for FE, cos they are being ripped by the minority.
It's always the minority that fucks it up for everyone else.

Shalom manichma brotha, Thanks for your kind words... I know not all people out there are scammers but there sure are some and I'm not the type to be bent over if you get my drift  ;)

As for your package hopefully it will be there soon.. cant wait to see what you think about it..

yeah I totally agree... the client had the balls to say that I charged him $7 for shipping and assumed that because i charged him so much it shoudl go with thracking.. I think he thought i just put a gram in a white envelops and throw a stamp on it... its not that simple... anyways.. Theres not much I can do now.. Just wait and take the hit... I know my regulars wont be affected but i want new clients too...

What a loser... over 1 gram too!!! I even tried to have him place a new order and replace the "lost" gram... he tole me ha can not send me more money because I have not delevered on the first order... what a loser.. I have over 70 transactions in a month.. that surly shoudl count for something... I think the guy was just a poor broke fool who probably scammed the BTC he used to pay me with and now is trying to scam me...

Fuck that shit!
