So, in February, I sold a set of cobra headlights and a pair of taillights to two seperate guys on the corral.
Guys paid me via paypal and I sent out the goods via USPS (no tracking numbers, apparently you had to pay extra for that unlike UPS/DHL, i assumed it was included, stupid me) the next day.
Dudes both email me like a week later, no stuff. Hm. Send email, tell them to wait a bit longer. Another week goes by, nothing. They email, I email back saying I'd get in contact with the Post Office. Dude at Post office gives me nothing.
More time passes, both guys get nothing in the mail, but neither one in a big hurry. Over a month goes by, they still havent seen hide nor hair of their stuff. Dude that bought the headlights says he sold his car and would rather just get refunded. Now mind you, I sent the stuff out so I was a bit hesitant to send the money right on back so I send him an email saying that I would like to check with the post office before I send the money back. The other guy hasnt sent me anything.
So that Monday, I call the post office, bound and determined to get an answer out of someone over there. I talk to a lady first that gives me the run around and transfers me to some other bonehead who transfers me again... etc. Make a long story shorter, apparently I screwed up the addresses on the two packages and they've been sitting at the post office for over a month. No attempts to return them to me, to contact me, nothing. I chew dude on the phone and gal at the counter a new asshole when I pick them up.
I drive straight to the UPS store where I drop off the taillight package, address corrected and be on my way. Sell the headlights on ebay, at a loss, and refund the first guy all his money back. Problem solved, right?
Apparently not. The guy with the taillights is now claiming, first today mind you, that he has yet again not received anything from me. The last correspondence I have from him was on 4-08. The dude gives me a shit rating on corral and posts up a smear thread saying I stole from him.
WHAT THE ****. What the hell should I do here?
