Whats Up NTFAM
I've recently been scammed over a pair of shoes and I'm calling all NT detectives for suggestions/advice as to what my options are at this point. Basically, I bought a pair of shoes. The seller sent me the wrong size shoes so I ask for an exchange. I send the shoes back and now the seller has the shoes and my money. Seller has since ignored my messages and attempts to contact them. Ebay member ID is Reimer415. DO NOT DEAL WITH HIM/HER
Here is a timeline of events
11/19- Paid invoice of $290 USD for pair of New Balance Salmon Soles
11/21- Shoes arrive, however the shoes inside are half a size too big. Seller apologizes, offers exchange or refund. I ship shoes back for an exchange
12/05- Seller says the other pair that he needs to exchange with mines was sold to another buyer and he needs to wait for the other buyer to receive their shoes and confirm the size before he can make the exchange. He also notes that he is out of town until the 16th, but he will ask his housemate to check the shoes
12/10- I decide I don't need the shoes anymore and ask for a refund, but seller won't give me the refund and now claims that I may have switched the shoe myself because the sizes matched the boxes when he purchased them from the store. So he has to wait for the other buyer who supposedly has my size to receive his pair and confirm the size on his shoe is the one that I was supposed to receive.

So what I do have is the seller's ebay name, paypal email, address, facebook page, and our entire conversation throughout this ordeal archived in my ebay messages folder and a copy of the usps tracking slip which proves that I shipped the shoes back to them.. What do I do? Any help is greatly appreciated!

12/20- I ask seller to just send me the shoes back even though they're the wrong size. I'll just resell them myself if I have to."I been talking to the post office custom held the package my other customer didn't receive the shoes yet I'm very sorry for the delay"

That was the last message I ever got from the seller. He has ignored all my messages since. I have contacted paypal, who wouldn't do anything. Ebay was only able to send them an email to remind them to send my shoes back. I then filed a claim with my bank and they couldn't do anything either. They sent me a letter saying the claim was denied and that I'd have to deal with the merchant, in this case, paypal. Didn't even bother to contact me for the evidence that I had to use in their decision making process smh. I should mention that we both live in SF and the only other thing I can think of at this point is to pay em a visit, but I was hoping to avoid anything illegal or anything that might provoke unnecessary repercussions as we are relatively close by to each other."No I'm not keeping your money as I said I'm just waiting to conform. I can give you back the shoes to hold till my other customer can conform then I can can just give you cash instead but as I said its up to you if you want to wait or sell the shoe it's all up too you thanks for understanding and sorry for the trouble"
