Hello!
Very Cumbersome Process to Receive Payment from International Buyers.
We are a Power Seller on Ebay selling Jewelleries worldwide. PaisaPay having very cumbersome system of asking Xerox Copy of Credit Card after a Certain Limit. Though this has been done as a precaution, but it makes the International Buyers shaky about buying. They always prefer PayPal which donot require these process. All Int'l buyers are used to PayPal system, and PayPal is an Ebay company, why this gross discriminatory system is prevailing for the same set of buyers. We are forced to accept payment through PayPal, and it takes a very long time to receive actual payment and that too with a risk.
I would request to apply same payment acceptance process as PayPal as buyers are common.

Hello every one,
Don't believe what they are saying here.
If you bid or buy on a high valued item they are biggest fraud you are going to see in your life.
I already suffered and lost Rs 20300.00.
They transferred the money to the seller account and they are working on this one to find the seller. Greatest joke.
So be careful there is no guarantee, Warranty, Security, and Safe.
Thanks,
P.G.S.Manian,
Pune,

This is for the ebay manamgement...
ipod & ipod shuffle are registered trademarks of apple. just now my seller has replied that the item he was selling to me as ipod shuffle 512 mb is not an apple one. This is very unfare and misleading as such products should be advertised as flshdrive mp3 /pendrive mp3 /usb mp3 player etc if they are anything other than an apple one. I am sure ebay does not promote selling illegal products (ipod is a regd trademark of apple and hence other than apple is fake & illegal!!!!).
I wish my this alert will help better customer relationship for ebay & sellers as well.

I have made paisy pay online of Rs 12,190.00 to ebay on july
5th 2006. the item is 250003265501. I have made fax of my credit card as a proof july 6th 2006.
The paisapay ID is 17201071657.
I didn't recieved the item and seller flyfot2006 has made an request to
ebay for refund the amount. I got a mail from customer support that my
case has reached to paisapay dept and they are looking into this. I
request you to refund the amount soon as i have pay the amount o bank by
next tuesday. I have opened an dispute regarding this.
I can't contact seller as he is no longer a registered user with ebay
now. Pls help me to refund the amount.
I'm in great crisis.
I also had faxed the standard claim form to ebay day before yesterday. There is no response from customer support. They send the mails which will really not solve the issue.
What to do next?
File a case in cusomner court or local police station?

Beware there are chances that the seller never got the amount as he was suspended before Paisa Pay released payment and the money is still with paisa pay.
and then they hand youa claim of rs 9950 and pocket the rest of the money. A RARE possibility ... but better cross check with seller .. try to contact the seller !!
FIling a complaint with the POLICE will really help !!
