I purchased a couple of items out right from an individual in China...on FEB 1st...even after telling him I was done and requesting invoice about 6 times now in various methods. (direct email, through the item page, AND through WHO the person is on this site) I have YET to have him even acknowledge my emails or purchases. This leaves me not feeling very trustworthy to even send this person money. As a buyer I feel I should at least be responded to before I send some stranger money. So what do I do? He has 100% feedback, I could pay immediately through Paypal but now I don't trust anything about this person. And I'm kinda annoyed that I wasted my time picking out anything from this persons shop when there's a lot of good people out there that DO appreciate business.


Please advise,
Christine

hi chris,
china is a ying/yang area. i have had good and bad experiences with buyers and sellers there. the first few buyers did not pay, then i finally got one good honest one who did and repeated his business with me. and i had very good luck with the taiwan chinese. i have had bad luck with the middle east and good luck, so you just never know. i have given up trying to judge the world by countries. it is only the individual you can make an opinion on. if you don't receive any communication from this individual, that isn't your fault. just report it to pascal, and let him handle it. you have done your best to resolve the situation. don't send any payment until this person has earned your trust. and don't worry about the negative feedback. you have the dispute resolution process you can utilize. perhaps his computer is down or there is a problem with the internet there, who knows in china. this is the storm season there too. take care and don't get so frustrated.
