Tony Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 For some reason, I ordered a Mya QT from Salsmarketplace on Ebay. I don't know why I didn't just get it from some of the other dealers mentioned here. I purchased it 7 days ago and its still not here, not even sure if it shipped yet. Has anyone else had any difficulty with this fellow? The only reason I ordered from him was because he posted on this forum. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Just found out that my shipment was delayed because their shipment was incomplete. They had to wait for the cages before they could ship my QT. oh well... I guess i'll have to wait until next week... bummer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loumeer Posted May 19, 2006 Share Posted May 19, 2006 Should have ordered from Mya. I just put my order in and it shipped same day. Supposed to come Tuesday and I ordered on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted May 19, 2006 Author Share Posted May 19, 2006 Yeah, I sent him an email the same day about giving me a break on shipping because I ordered a bullet cover from him also on a different auction. Never got a reply. Figured he was probably too busy to reply... I know how it is but yeah, it would have been nice to know about the cage thing, at least I wouldn't have rode my bike home 85 MPH on the interstate without a helmet just to get home and find an empty porch.

mushrat Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 Hmm...the qt's come IN the cages as far as I know. I don't think you are being given the straight dope on this...could be wrong... Lesson to be learned here folks, and too many are learning it the hard way, we may pay a little more from reputable sources, but we GET what we order, and if there IS a problem, we have phone numbers to call and the names of people to talk to. Don't just buy from someone because THEY say they are great...see what OTHER's say. Didn't mean to preach, but.... How did you pay and can you cancel your order? Non-performing bidder perhaps? You can get their contact info like real phone number through e-bay and call this guy and get a real answer. Sorry to hear of your troubles...

Tony Posted May 20, 2006 Author Share Posted May 20, 2006 I used Paypal. I did get his number and call him and got his voicemail. He sent me an email not long after and told me the order was shipped this past week, but didn't say when or tell me when to expect it. I doubt i'll get screwed by the guy, he's got a really good feedback profile. I dunno though, we'll see. If I have too, i'll pay squaretrade to set everything right.

mushrat Posted May 20, 2006 Share Posted May 20, 2006 ask him for tracking/shipping info. As far as squaretrade, They mostly deal with seedback issues. PAY-PAL is who you have to deal with about your money and non-performing seller about the guy. I hate sellers who advertise something they don't have, expect immediate paym,ent, THEN tell you they don't actually have the item and would you mind waiting. He could tell you its in the mail for a long long time to come to keep you from filing. I strongly suggest beginning the process of NPS complaint. That will often get a sellers attention in a hurry. Save every e-mail you two exchange, including the one he's going to send about not leaving him bad feedback or else... That can often explain good feedback for crappy sellers.

Tony Posted May 20, 2006 Author Share Posted May 20, 2006 I was reading his feedback and someone ordered something from him, paid for it immediatley and then left negative feedback.If he didn't get an item after three weeks of paying for it, salsmarketplace deserved negative feedback. I read the complainees feedback report and sure enough, Salsmarketplace replied with negative feedback as retaliation. Squaretrade has pull with Ebay, and if you are in the right, they can almost guarentee that if you did everything you where supposed to, they can get ebay to scrub your negative feedback and leave the guy who didn't live up to his end of the bargain holding the crow. Its worth the $20 to keep your feedback profile squeaky clean. Hopefully, this thing is a genuine Mya QT though... that is my biggest concern. According to a post he made, he gets them wholesale and they are genuine Myas, we'll see..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 They can NOT remove your Negative while at the same time leaving his. If they told you this they are mis-representing thier services. What they CAN arrange is a MUTUAL removal of feedbacks. They will remove the -1 for the negative from your score, but they will do the same to his as well. Then it WILL leave whatever was actually written in the comment area. So your score will remain squeeky clean, but people will still read what he wrote in revenge. HIS score will also remain squeeky clean, so someone who continually screws people over and gets negatives, can blackmail them by also leaving a negative. This means they can have lots of unhappy people, blackmail them into having their negative feedback not counted, and still at a glance have a 100% positive feedback. And YOU get to pay an extra $20 for the privelage of getting crappy service and screwed over. Square deal is a scam run by Ebay to get even MORE of your money. Ebay LIKES when this kind of thing happens...more money for them. If you do not have the item, file non-performing seller. Enough of those WILL get the seller removed from Ebay and save the next SUCKER the trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve07 Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 This is why I don't use ebay to many shady people out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted May 21, 2006 Author Share Posted May 21, 2006 Mush, interesting.... I didn't understand the process. You're right, it does seem like a way to Ebay to suck more funds out of you. Not sure what to do other then complain to Ebay. If I leave the guy negative feedback, he's surely going to do the same to me, even though I paid on time.

steve07 Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Tony, I don't know if it is the same individal that was mention on the forum before, but it is ashame there are people that would resort to tactics like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted May 21, 2006 Share Posted May 21, 2006 Tony: do you REALLY think anyone cares about feedback? I mean really? Especially in a buyer? My feedback has more revenge negatives than you would believe. People still take my bids. I still send the money as soon as I win. And I still won't be blackmailed into saying something was a good transaction when it wasn't. There are ways to do follow up feedbacks to explain things if you really want. You leave him a negative he leave you a negative. You follow up his neative with "this is revenge negative.Have payment proof.email me" that sort of thing. He may replay the same to your negative, I believe, its been a while, you can then reply to HIS reply to that. I have things like that in my feedback and in the feedback I've left for others and not ONCE has anyone e-mailed me for details. If most people actually read the feedback of the people they were buying things from, there'd be a whole lot fewer probelms where someone has 10 negatives over a month all saying the same thing. once the first negatives started showing up peopole should have found out what was going on..but most don't, they just bid because they see something they want and go for it. unfortunately..like you did. If you'd look at my SELLING feedback...nothing but positives. Though I've had to leave negatives for people who bought from me. Its very simple. If you have not received your qt. go to Ebay's security area. Find the non-performing seller form and fill it out. the sooner you start the process, the sooner you get a resolution. If you paid with pay-pal, contact them as well. They have a process where they will ask the seller for proof they delivered the goods. If they can't provide that proof, Pay-pal can reverse the charges and credit you back your money. I've done this with a company who has posted here in the past.... Good luck..but don't just sit there while someone who has your money feeds you a line about why you don't have your product...waiting for the cages indeed...

He actually posted online and said he knows Mya or something like that ... anyway... I thought he was legit like some of the other dealers... I should have known better then to do business with someone who sells jewelry for your penis and/or vagina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted May 22, 2006 Author Share Posted May 22, 2006 Hi Mahmoud, I wish I would have ordered the Hookah directly from you. My mistake was ordering it from someone on Ebay who claimed to be "in close contact" with you, the price was right so I bit. I apologize if I made it seem as if your company was dragging its feet getting an order too me. It was a dealer on ebay. Take care, Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted May 22, 2006 Author Share Posted May 22, 2006 [quote name='myasaray.com']I am not sure why he did not send you the order yet but again we stand behind anyone who wants to invest in getting a Quality MYA.[/quote] Hi again, the only communication that took place between us was a voicemail left by me and then an email from him stating that he recieved the QT's without the cages and that he had to wait for them. He did state that the order shipped "this week" but didn't say when or when I could expect it. Take care, Tony p.s. Thanks for the generous offer. I'm sure i'll see this order if a few days, I was just bummed I didn't have it for the weekend... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djnick Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 jsut to let you know, ebay wont deal with anything unless its been 14 days after seller has shipped it. I would just wait it out, and then file a squaretrade/paypal/ebay dispute. should get teh sellers attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted May 25, 2006 Author Share Posted May 25, 2006 Well, my MYA QT got here from Sal and here is what I got: [img]http://photos.imageevent.com/phoenix/misc/all_i_got_from%20salsmarketplace.jpg[/img] As you can clearly see, the tray is missing. Not only that but the auction said it was available in several colors and I emailed him and asked for BLUE, which happens to be the same color as my truck and my motorcycle. So he sends me a Hookah that is not my color and is missing parts. Plus, the way he packed it was atrocious! He had over a dozen USPS Priority Mail envelopes rolled up into gobs and used that to take up the slack that was in the package. Too cheap for peanuts? I'm not leaving this guy negative feedback because it did come in, but I am not happy with the deal at all because I really can't use it until I get a fuqn tray for this god-damn thing, plus the color is not striking a chord with me... you know?

Loumeer Posted May 25, 2006 Share Posted May 25, 2006 Give a shout out to Mya I am sure that he wont mind sending you a new bowl that is blue and I am positive he will at least ship you a tray. Mya is a very nice respectable company. Can't hurt to try anyways.--Amichai Israeli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
