Extremely Disappointed & Frustrated. Buyee/YJ Scam RESULT!

Well, I thought it wouldn’t happen to me but it did :unamused:
This is what I received in the mail today from the latest big purchase of mine off of Buyee

The seller made a crude copy the original card and stuck a real card behind it in the case to make it look like the real thing. (my suggestion is invest in a better scanner/printer…) And they also made it nearly impossible to get it out the case somehow.

I will post up the auction link below.

I have already filed a paypal claim, but I was wondering if there is actually anything I could do to help get my payment back. Or if I’m just screwed.

Thanks for your time

Oh shit im sorry this happened to you. Best thing would be to go ahead with the paypal claim as buyee should have checked the goods atleast to make sure what you bought arrived. Thats one of the reasons I dont like them as the ship it out without checking. If the claim doesnt work out you can always do a chargeback through your bank if you funded the paypal paypal payment through a credit or debit card.

Thanks man, at least I will have the chargeback option to fall back on (hopefully)

The seller has a pretty high rating and I couldn’t believe it when I opened the box.

Oh wow, I’m so sorry potts…I know how much you had wanted that card, and how expensive it is. Best of luck with the PayPal claim. My heart goes out to ya man. Screw that seller, that’s a truly terrible thing to do.

The copy looks legit in pictures but it’s actually pretty terrible in person. Fuzzy and unreadable.

I don’t care if buyee blocks me, there are a lot of better services out there lol

Best of luck with getting your money back man, I feel super sorry for you… it’s terrible. And the seller has +2000 positive ratings, what the heck … It’s awful. I really hope you’ll get all money back! Keep us informed.

Will do! Thanks for the support

dam… what a loser… he is probably going to go back to his pillowcase girlfriend in japan in a dead end area of town, eating 25cent noodles. Never to amount to much in life.

Alright…yes the seller is a complete cock, but we do not need to resort to racism.

I don’t think any racism was intended man :blush: lol

everyone likes cheap noodles! :laughing:

with the money he made from me he probably was able to afford a pretty nice robot girlfriend actually… B-| lol…

Is there a small chance the seller bought this only to flip it quickly for profit and didn’t realise it was fake?

No not at all, from the pictures on the auction the card had been turned in the holder when I received it. And it was also very clear to see the holo greninja behind it and the fake non holo/fuzzy picture of the Rayquaza :confused:

So to me it was clearly a scam.

Brutal Jeremy.
Sending all the worst of luck to the thief who did this. He’ll get his…

Thanks man.

At least now I have a $2k holo greninja…

Yeah I think this was enough internet for me today. Some people simply don’t feel any shame ripping off other people, make sure you’ll get money back and don’t lose your sleep while waiting for it.
