Your experiences? and how did you long you waited before you decided that a dispute was necessary?

Looking to see posts from disputers and disputees.

Most of the time you only have 45 days to file a claim. Personally I have never had to do it, thankfully.

I haven't started a dispute yet, I'm giving the seller some time to explain himself and provide a resolution but communication has slowed rapidly since the initial sale/s (responses within minutes versus 5 days since a response)

Bought something on ebay, thing never arrived. This is at 3weeks later, from within the same country.
Seller never responded to 6 of my messages, disputed and got refunded.

why don't you answer my question?

if people get scammed but only file the claim until say 6 weeks later, will paypal still listen to them or will they just not give two ****s?

You cant do a damn thing after 45 days
unless they have some unforeseeable downside (like they're actually made of cream cheese cunningly disguised as ABS)

You should assume that they will not help you, because legally, they don't have to anymore.  I don't know if they've made exceptions--perhaps they have, if cases have been very convincing and serious.

he didn't really explain it. He just reworded spam's post but with the sarcastic tone, thus making it seem not so legitimate

that being the Netherlands, seller could just have hopped onto his bicycle and delivered it in an hour? :D

Most of the modding can be done on your own once you break through the psychological barriers.

44 days (just a bit early) before you file claim, once a claim has been made another 20 days to "try to work things out with the seller", another couple of days waiting for paypal to reopen the case for appeal because they don't read the tracking numbers posted. Asking them to use google translate if the tracking is in German is out of the option so all in all roughly 2 months and 1 week and I'm still waiting. The exact same thing happened a few months back when paypal closed my dispute for not "providing them documentation" (what documentation is a Buyer supposed to have exactly? A copy of the confirmation that I paid with.... you?). Last time they gave me money and all was well. I'm sure the same will happen now, it's just a long drawn out process for some of us.

Wow that sucks. If you even had placed the claim one day late, then you wouldn't have gotten anything...
