Mike If you opened a dispute you should be fine..

Two things I'd like to know, what was the poster (not all quads are a full 30x40 ), and who is the seller?

bigmike · « **Reply #26 on:** June 29, 2015, 04:47:57 PM »

No luck with refund yet. Dispute is still opened.

Luck just gets better. Purchased an 8P French poster from another seller. And I receive 7/8 panels, with the 8th panel belonging to another poster.

No reply from that seller as of yet. But he has high feedback. I am hoping he makes it right too...

Mike. your refund dispute should be an open and shut case, I would think.

Good luck... and, re: the 7/8 of the other French 8P..I hope he finds the last section for you.

We'll see and I'll post the updates in this thread. Going to keep it my ebay negative experiences thread.

He hasn't responded to me as of yet. I hope he does, I would like that 8th Panel that is mising, I opened a case just to be sure he responds. I hope he gets back to me...

You didn't get what you ordered, case closed.

Seller pays for return postage.

Saying that, ebay are turning into such c*@!% these days. I could rant here but i'll hold back.

I am now less concerned about that trimmed poster, and more concerned about the French 8 Panel... At least, in the picture the seller had posted, you can see it's trimmed if analyzed closely in comparison with other ones. But the 8Panel, I am now more worried about as it cost a lot more than the trimmed poster and its pretty much worthless too without that 8th panel....

What's the 8 panel film/image, Mike?

bigmike · « **Reply #33 on:** June 30, 2015, 03:44:12 AM »

Star wars trilogy 8p

bigmike · « **Reply #34 on:** July 03, 2015, 02:22:13 PM »

Both transactions were dealt with.

Refunds given.

Good to hear, Mike!

Nice that it all worked out the way it should have.

when you have these issues, be a hard ass on the sellers. If all they understand is a gun to the head, pull it out & point it at him

I had instance where eBay seller sold me an "original" Star Wars Gone With the Wind style one sheet only to find upon delivery that it was a undersized reprint from the 1990's. After I contacted seller he eventually acknowledged that but still refused to accept return as in his mind eBay is "buyer beware". Ebay found in my favor of course and issued me a return label with the shipping costs deducted from the seller.

Should happen in your case as well. General rule on eBay/Paypal is that if not as described it is to be shipped back at seller's expense for full refund.

Great to hear!

You get that 8th panel or returned as part of the refund?

bigmike · « **Reply #39 on:** July 03, 2015, 06:53:31 PM »

Refund.

brude · « **Reply #40 on:** July 03, 2015, 08:27:04 PM »

Glad you got your money back but sorry about two disappointments in a row.
Especially the 7/8p SW Trilogy... that just sucks Jedi snot.

Glad you have your money and thank you for sharing this experience here. It is comforting to read you can get your money back if things don't go according to plan.

paul waines · « **Reply #42 on:** July 04, 2015, 03:23:37 AM »

As much as it's good to be refunded, I hate not getting what I wanted. I'd rather have the poster than the money any day.

Bad things should happen to people like that...

oldposterho · « **Reply #43 on:** July 04, 2015, 09:20:44 AM »

Totally agree, Paul. It's like when you get a poster damaged in shipping due to inept packing - I don't want the danged refund, I wanted the poster that I bought. Aggravatin', as old mountain men are want to say.

Totally with you on this sentiment, too, Paul. Big time!

Mike, did you end up keeping the French 8p for the SW Trilogy? Or did that seller ever happen to come up with the missing panel?

And same question with the quad... a keeper? Or did it go back?
