Ebay / Paypal what does it mean?

The story continues.. I receive a letter from Paypal saying they reopened the case because a week after he receives it, he says there is a cue case but no cue. I love people, I don't know why, maybe I like to be challenged, who knows. Luckily for me, I took pictures of me putting the cue in the case, the case in the box, the box being shipped. All time and date stamped by my camera. Now as evidence goes, it could be construed as I removed the cue after the pictures were taken. But believe me, the cue was as crooked as I have seen in a titlist, plus the fact the ferrules were cracked and other problems....

Anyways I am so happy I shipped it USPS. They are really IMHO the only way to ship a cue. Insurance wise, delivery wise, and record wise. Plus my post office is always pleasant and very customer friendly. I went in today with the delivery confirmation receipt. The postmaster comes out with a print out of the whole transaction, weight and all. Now I know the cue was 26 oz (1lb 10 oz) I know the case was at least 1 1/2-2 lbs (Old Brunswick flip top case, if someone can verify the weight, thank you) So the box and packing makes up the rest. Hopefully this is enough to bury this piece of crap. This is the second dishonest person to reference our high dollar cues, and make the statement that because we are obviously rich beyond comprehension (yeah ok), it is OK to rip them off. I wouldn't rip off Bill Gates, even knowing I could get away with it, I couldn't sleep at night if I did.

Ebay is tied, although I will request a retraction to the negative feedback he left. Paypal has been ok and hopefully they see what kind of miscreant this guy is. I will supply the guys info if people want it, but I don't think he is a pool player, just some buy and flip guy. Since he is in Philly, I hope to see the cue next week. :)

I am going to file mail fraud based on all the evidence that I have and the whole story. I am really getting tired of these people constantly trying to use the system to beat other people. It happened to us once before, and that just proves that even if you're found to be in the right, don't expect the other person to comply. The second time this year already, once as a buyer and once as a seller.

Anyone else wanna be a cuedealer?
