I sold a boys clothing tiem last week. The buyer was down as being (for the sake of this thread) flower12. The paypal link came form flower12, syaing I will sned postage soon. I emailed her to say the postal order had arrived and that I would try and post the item on the Tuesday, but if not it would be Friday, (11th) as listed on my lisitng.
Then i started, on Wednesday getting ebay emails from someone with a completely different name (say Fred26 for the sake of the thread) asking where their item was. I forwarded the email to ebay, becasue as far as I was concerned, I'd done no transactions with anyone by that name. Today i find out that this "fred26" has
A) left me negative feedback
B) opened an ebay dispute
C) Opened a paypal dispute.

When i went back into my emails, and found the original one from flwer12, and clicked on her feedback link,(it said she had a feedback score of 14) it took me to this "fred26" feedback.
Now I am completely confused,how can someone who didn't even buy the item - as far as I am concrened - manage to get it,a nd the tosser has left me neg feedback and opened 2 disputes. His item was posted on Friday !st class recorded delivery. I have the tracking number

No icon or any mention that he has chnaged his name. There is definately a paypal dispute opened. I am getting worried now that he is someone who has hacked into my or someone else's account. Like you say, how could he open a paypal dispute?????

this is really odd, if postal order I don't see what paypal has to do with it!

Right have had communication with paypal, and as I thought, there is nothing they will do, as he didn't pay by paypal.
The item has definately arrived as I ahve seen the electronic proof of delivery.
He has left me a negative saying "paid by postal order, not received item or no reply to emails, beware this seller"

So what do is ay about him. I am tempted to say "I see your parcel has arrived as I knew it would. I am waiting for an apology
