CPAPAuction question
CPAPAuction question
I placed a bid on an item on CPAPAuction ( my first time to bid on anything on CPAP auctions ) and was advised on 11-2 that I had won the bid. The seller had a 100% track record at the time that i was bidding on the item. I sent an email to the seller on 11-2 and did send subsequent emails but have not had any response. Seller has had 3 negative postings early november & yes I did send payment via Paypal.
What are my options now -- if any ?

Re: CPAPAuction question
Off the top of my head, I'd say give the seller a few more days. It hasn't been all that long (4 days) and it may have been sent by now.
Sometimes something happens in the seller's life; this happened to one of my favorite eBay sellers. I was astounded to seek out her listings and find a number of negative ratings. When I wrote to her to ask if she was still selling items, she explained she had had a sudden illness resulting in hospitalization. This wreaked havoc with her selling rating (percentage), though.
PayPal has a dispute procedure. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?c ... de#dispute
This is the PayPal Buyer Complaint Policy (contained in the User Agreement for PayPal Service: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/websc ... nt-outside
Here is a website that has advice on disputes for many companies, including PayPal: http://getsatisfaction.com/paypal
I hope the easy thing happens for you and your item arrives within a couple of days.
Karen,
Who hopes the easy button works for you

Re: CPAPAuction question
Give the seller a week to see if they respond. If after a week you don't hear anything file a dispute with Paypal. Things do happen as Bird stated and it might be they have had an emergency of some sort.
Although a few weeks ago a couple of posters had problems with a particular seller. You might post the name and see if anyone else has dealt with them.

Re: CPAPAuction question
Howdy,
I'm sorry this transaction has not gone off smoothly. In addition to the comments on this thread, another thing to do is pay via paypal USING A CREDIT CARD. That way if Paypal doesn't do the right thing, you have a credit card charge back option.
Here's more on that and general best buyer practices:

Re: CPAPAuction question
I do use Card with Paypal rather than straight to bank account -- so that's a good thing. I did recieve an email back from CPAPAuctions giving me the seller's phone number but have been unable to get an answer so far. I have been wondering if something might have happened on seller's end because all of the comments were 100% up to 11-4 and then he hasn't answered anybody since then.
Thanks for all the helpful suggestions & I do hope that it works out -- really good price for the mask.

Perhaps his computer went down and he's having it repaired. Maybe he lives in one of the states that are having 3-4 feet of snow. Maybe his browser thinks your e-mails are spam. There are many things that could be going on. I hope it will work out for you. It's hard to have patience.
I just got my mask from an auction seller 10 minutes ago. Going to try it tonight.

Re: CPAPAuction question
Just received another email from CPAPAuction.com -- Stated that they had spoken with seller and he said that he would resolve the issue -- all may not be lost.
Don't know about the seller but CPAPAuctions is A+

-- Still can't get those silly smiley faces to work
