I believe that is a requirement of law that issuers of credit cards must refund your money if you don't get what you pay for,it is not an option for them. As previously stated ,with a debit card the money is gone as soon as you make the transaction. I have gotten my money back probably about 15 times using a credit card by disputing a bad deal. As a side note I cancelled my Ebay account a couple of months ago because I just could not stomach any longer the ever increasing kneejerk policies that they come up with. I still have my Paypal account because it is so widely accepted online but would drop it in a heartbeat for an alternative. I see people on a different thread are advocating Google checkout. I notice this as an increasing commonly accepted way to pay and it has my attention.

Paypals latest reply.

Seems they now do not know what this whole dispute is about.

Dear Steve Jordanides,

Thank you for contacting PayPal.

PayPal understands your concern and desire to resolve the dispute in
question. However, once a Buyer Complaint claim has been canceled, it
is
considered resolved and cannot be reopened.

Should you have the need to file another claim in the future, we
suggest
that you do not cancel the claim until you have received the
merchandise
or a refund.

We encourage you to continue to work with the seller for a mutual
resolution. You may also wish to seek other avenues of resolution such
as an auction website if one was used to conduct this transaction. We
value your business and regret that you have had this experience. To
avoid similar experiences in the future, visit the PayPal Security
Center by clicking the "Security Center" link in the upper right-hand
corner of any PayPal webpage.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Hey Steve, I see you did quite a number on me there. I'm going to have to change my name.

Dear Santa,

I left something important off my list. Please wrap mushu1432 in a small box and mail his sorry ass to Steve.

Thanks,
Chuck

Sorry you had to go through that. That's horrible.

You owe me for the time I put into this piece of junk, the aggravation of dealing with this piece of crap (and you) and the supplies I had to buy. And it is STILL not useable yet.
You also owe Tracy for the piece of junk you sent her.
How many others have you taken money from for these crap cages?

Grow a pair of balls and post here. You won't because you are just scum.

Look what this scumbag wrote as a respone to what Dennis posted.



Making it better would be refunding what you stole from people.

I'm done with you. The credit card company will deal with you now.

Josh,

Hi again, I have my own user name now, yeah me... By the way thanx for backing me up. I wish you could have done more thru Paypal. Heck I did it the right way and I'm still out money. I had to ship the cage back, $50, and I "may" get a full refund minus shipping cost.

Basically I'll be out money and have no cage. I hope they at least give me my money back before Christmas. That is the buyer beware you always hear about. Paypal does get you coming and going. The kicker will be if they taske a fee out of the refund . I should know more after tomorrow that is when he is due to receive the shipment.

Thanx again
Tracy

I'm just cautious enough though that he would have to ship and allow me to inspect the product before I would pay for it.

Honestly, that sounds good and all but that would never happen. I don't think any seller in their right mind would ship something for a customer to inspect unless it wasn't worth anything to begin with. Even this jerk.

That said Josh seems disillusioned with his products, that they are better than his "competitor " Vision Cages. Maybe he would...

Tracy

New name.
Same cages.
You STILL owe me for the last POS Josh!!!!!!
