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?
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...😡
In summary, since you have not received the item and tracking information shows that it is still in transit. I have extended the timeframe of the case for 10 more days to allow for any possible shipping delays. If the item does not arrive in 10 days, we will then take appropriate action on your case. Additionally, if the item has been delivered to you kindly close the case through the Resolution Center.Thank you for your continued patience and willingness to work with eBay.Sincerely,Shanna D.eBay Customer Support
$140 for Shipping?
Quote from: Norcal on September 13, 2017, 12:19:42 PM$140 for Shipping? We have heavy items shipped from China on a regular basis, and Fedex IE (which is a 5 day or less service to the U.S.) starts at ~$10/pound before discounts. If you click on the shipping tab the $605 shipping is about right before it gets the Aliexpress discount down to $140. The nice thing is, it is usually a time guaranteed 5 day delivery once Fedex receives it from the forwarder.

This is definitely more messed up than the last time I had a problem like this (probably 10 years ago now).
Just got this email from Ebay....Hello Maxwell, Thank you for contacting us regarding the Pump Electric High Pressure 30MPa Air Compressor System Rifle PCP Air Gun (182678511464) that you recently purchased. I understand a coin was delivered to you instead of the actual item. We know these types of situations are frustrating, I'll be happy to look into this for you. After reviewing the case, I noticed the claim has been put on a hold for your seller to either refund you in full or provide a label for you to return the coin back. If you seller fails to do this by 9/19/2017, please contact us so we can action the case accordingly. We appreciate your continued patience and cooperation, Venice F.eBay Customer Support
This is what I received in the mail today....Don't be jealous, I received one (1) "Peso". Surprising EBay allows anyone like this to participate in selling on their site. I will never purchase anything on EBay unless it is on a CC. As I stated earlier the CC company was the only party that took immediate action. No luck with EBay or PayPal. Thank you for the link on the legit seller. I have seen a few more of these compressors being sold on EBay that were located in the US. I think the key is look for the has transaction rate and the good feedback. Not sure if the compressor is worth the low $300.00's. I get my tanks filled for $6.00 each so I would have to fill over 50 tanks to break even. With this compressor last that long? Please anyone that purchased these keep us posted on how they work. Thanks!!
