usps says epacket (small packet) is in queens NY......for 9/15 delivery

i can see this again

Wow.  Has that been a previous china scam.  Send a EPA let if silver coin,  but the silver is actual made from mercury or something toxic?

No seriously,  that makes senses though,  it's a real tracking number and shows delivered furthering delaying eBay/ PayPal ability to refund money!!!

Meanwhile in china,  they have already gotten away with our money and are long gone!

Glad I didn't go for this compressor, right now I think the best choice I could make would be the newest Carrette compressor that has the ringless high side cylinder in it, I know that with that compressor I could fill the big tanks for sure, plus the fact that it would probably have a much longer life than the small ones.

Looks like these maggots have been doing the Chinese coin scam since 2011

https://www.paypal-community.com/t5/Disputes-and-claims/Chinese-Coin-Scam/td-p/162212?profile.language=en-gb

They keep doing to bc PayPal refuses to recognize it is a scam.

How many people are still waiting for a refund bc PayPal wants to wait for time to be delivered?

To *(&^ with PayPal's  process,  I hope y'all have contacted your credit card company to file a dispute.  Most CC companies are more friendly to their customers

So far I think the compressor is good for the money...  we just choose a crappy vendor to order it from

That is definitely a nice unit... I just recommended it to a guy I work with (who has a much higher blow money budget!)

That $1400 barrier to entry though.... would it outlast 4 of the little compressors if you did your part? Better hurry, that carette is on sale right now $450 off, that sale ends this month, once it goes to regular price it would have to outlast almost 6 of the little compressors...

Mrodair has the same thing for just over a grand now, he recently lowered the price on them.  I was trying to get on Joe's website but my Firefox wouldn't let me, they said the signature was out of date or something like that.

I have it on bad authority that those are knock offs, aka "not the real deal", ATFS is the ONLY authorized dealer in the U.S. and the Chinese are always loyal to their dealer network.... (in all seriousness, you're preaching to choir, if I had $1025 I would have ordered one).

On the other hand, we're comparing a $1000 compressor to a $327 compressor. Much like comparing an off the shelf $327 rifle to an off the shelf $1000 rifle, these are not in the same league in my opinion. Also, I'm still not positive the Carette would outlast 3 properly used little compressors. If we're running a 24 stress test, then by all means, but topping off 500-800 PSI on my tanks doesn't take 24 hours.

From everything I've read, I would gladly put these little compressors up against any sub-$500 compressor anyone can find.

My "compressor" landed at the post office today, should have it when I get home from work. I'm guessing either the silver coin or a figurine of some sort.

well, whatcha got ??

[Rat Sniper (AKA: PaulT58)]

I called eBay again today and they refused to do anything until Sep 20th.  I guess they really think a compressor is going to magically appear on my door step.  I wish I shared their delusion, but I don't think I'll see any further movement between now and the 20th.  Just very frustrating because it's not like I'm the only eBy buyer dealing with a scam from this seller.  I know eBay could care less, but I'll be very reluctant to buy through eBay from now on after this experience!

[Sprungout]

Paul, I just got my coin today and EBay is refusing to refund until the 19th. I did it over the phone and I am perturbed off now, so I'm cooling down and then will get back on the phone --keep asking for higher supervisors until I get my money back. They want me to try to get a return label for the coin, and if I don't get one by the 19th they will refund me. Yeah, I don't think so...😡

[packard8]

Well, I got a notice today that my "compressor" arrived in an envelope to Chicago. I have filed complaints with eBay, PayPal and my CitiBank credit card. Not much help from eBay or PayPal, Citi has posted a conditional credit for $200 to my account. In the future, I will only purchase from eBay with my CC, and bypass PayPal completely.....they seem more sympathetic to the fraudster than to the victim of fraud.

[Norcal]

So, if I'm understanding what you guys are saying, instead of a Compressor, the Chinese Chiselers sent you some goofy coin in a envelope?

[Sprungout]

Yes David, I got a genuine steel(magnetic) 1871 USA trade dollar coin...420 grains 900 fine she says.

[Norcal]

Well, that really stinks. I knew eBay had gone downhill in regards to taking care of issues but for them to keep you guys hanging in the face of this blatant fraud is just unbelievable.

Is this what they sent you?  http://www.ebay.com/itm/1871-UNITED-STATES-OF-AMERICA-TRADE-DOLLAR-COINS-/152698098476

[Rat Sniper (AKA: PaulT58)]

I think I'm going to contact my credit card company tomorrow and see if they can help.  This schiester is long gone, he's not going to send a return label any more than he ever actually shipped anything!  I went to the China EMS website and ran my tracking number.  It said not found or overdue.  That tells me they submitted shipping information on-line, but never actually shipped anything, so nothing is going to ever be delivered!  I'm about done with EBay!  Sad because there are decent sellers on there, but if this is what you have to go through when you get a bad one, it's not worth my time or effort!

[Sprungout]

Yup, that's the coin I got. A whopping $.96 I see

[Airgundetectives]

I went through my Citi-Bank Visa and they issued me my $225 credit within days and said they would investigate the matter.  They were extremely helpful and friendly.  I wish I could say the same for EBay and PayPal.  They were much more apprehensive and wanted me to go through the waiting period.  I will only use my CC to make purchases on EBay in the future.  My coin is due to show up on Thursday (09/14).  I will photograph it and post it when it comes in.. I am still thinking about purchasing one of these compressor from a legit seller.  Has anyone purchased one and if so how did it work?
