Beginning 03/10 - post updates here


While waiting for the member base to follow in, we can still make a difference by starting today to do any or all of the following:


Do not offer PayPal as a payment option


Email sellers who only offer PayPal and let them know you will NOT be buying from them (you can even send them the listing # of the item you DID buy)


Email sellers who take money orders/checks and THANK them


Please pick ONE (or more) of the above and act on it.  Please post follow ups here and give info so others can see what you are doing.  If you email a seller, please post the item number and let us know what you said to the seller.  Take 5 minutes a day and devote it to this project.  As CAPP grows, so will what we accomplish, but for now - we are small and we will start small....but we will not go unheard.


As always.....BE HONEST & ETHICAL IN ANY TRANSACTION THAT YOU ARE INVOLVED IN!  


Thanks!

I just emailed 7748152994 with the following:


Would love to have 2 pair of these boots, but I cannot support a seller who offers ONLY PayPal as a payment option.  PayPal's fraud has gone through the roof and does not protect the Seller anymore. I refuse to be a part of that.  As a buyer, I hope you consider accepting checks and money orders in the future.  Thanks!


I will be sure to post any responses I get as well and hope you do the same.

I sent this message to customer who paid with a money order before this mess, the ID is  1hapyman_04 


 


I would like to thank you so much for NOT using PayPal as a form of payment. PayPal is in the middle of ripping off 1000's of it's loyal long term users, sellers seem to be the target because they are the ones who keep the most cash in their PP accounts. I was robbed of almost $1900, they froze my account, after 4 years of NO problems. I have never been ripped off by a seller or buyer but, instead without warning or any reason PP stole my money & they waited till I had almost twice my normal, high end, balance to do it? I never knew they operated like this! There are many web sites dedicated to people who have been scammed by PP, type paypalsucks, aboutpaypal.org, consumers against PayPal policies or anti paypal into Google and start reading. It will blow you away! I will not endorse a company who commits fraud on its own customers, I will no longer offer PayPal even if they give me my $ back, which they won't. Again thanks a lot for not using their service! also check the PP forum!


I sent this after receiving positive feedback from them! I will continue to do this & I will also continue to contact sellers who do not accept PP to thank them!!


Check his feedback as I noted it in the feedback I left him as well as the email I sent!!!

Hotdog that is a great idea!!!  I never even thought about posting follow ups!!  I will definitely start mentioning it in my feedback to sellers (and buyers!).


Lots of people read feedback....so that is a great way to get the word around......and besides....eBay can't take your feedback off can they (unless its vulgar)?


Let me think on it and I'll see what I can come up with!!


Man....we've got some great minds thinking on this board!
