I'm selling off some of my kits. I have too many and at 68, almost 69 years of age. I'll never build them all. But this is what irked me today.
I sold a kit to a guy. The buyer said the A pillars in the kit I sent were both bent inward. I said I'd refund them but I'd like to see a photo of the body and the bent pillars through the sealed bag. And then I sent him the photo of the kit. The photo I sent to him before he bought the kit showing they were fine. He said he'll work with it and I kept saying to send it back and I'd refund it. But I'd like to see a photo. No photo. He said it was all right and that he would work with it. That he just wanted to let me know. So scammer obviously trying to get their money back. Have to watch PayPal to see if they submit a claim.
And that is another scam to watch for. The PayPal scam. A person will buy an item. Then the next day submit a claim to PayPal saying they never received the item they paid for. Then PayPal takes the money out of the sellers account and refunds it back to the buyer. A day or 2 later they get the item for free. And it's not just happening with us model people. It's happening to all businesses. My sister told me she did it and I told her if I ever find out she did it again. I'd turn her in to police. Always a scammer somewhere. Even really close to home.
