You should file PayPal claims or a chargeback with your bank if you receive something
that isn't as described or not what you paid for; you should also file NSS
complaints (non-shipping seller) if the seller does not make things right and
isn't responding, as that's the way stores get shut down (3 strikes and
they're banned)
Never pay for orders through methods that don't have payment protection to
ensure you'll get your money back
This does not work once you pass the length of time given by Paypal. JoanyBrick
canceled my order after 3 months of back and forth but it was too late to get
the funds back from Paypal and this seller never returned the funds or responded.
If you order was paid for then cancelled you are entitled to a refund, if you
let it go past PayPal's deadline that is on you. 3 months of back and forth
is way too long. NSS is for your protection, and NPB is for a seller's protection.
People don't want to get anyone in trouble, but sometimes it's the only
way to get things done.
It was canceled after 3 months of back and forth. Once that happened it was past
the paypal time frame. Since this was in a different country I was trying to
give the seller the benefit. Won't happen again. I've done hundreds of
buys on Brickowl without any issues and I've done 5 buys here with 2 issues.
I thought paypal's timeframe was 180 days? Unless that's only domestic
to domestic.
