Disboutiquers Part 12 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

[livndisney]

I bought an item on Ebay and paid for priority shipping.A week or so went by and I had not heard anything so I emailed the seller to ask if the item had been shipped. They replied that it had been shipped on the 25th and I should get it is a day or so. I received it on the 31st via regular mail. Postage on the package was dated the 30th. (So basically I paid almost 10.00 for fast shipping, they spent 2.00 on regular shipping and lied to me about it). But then they did not send all the parts!

SO, at the VERY least I want the money I paid in shipping back. I can "make it work" for the missing piece.

My question is this-if I return it, I am not going to get my shipping back am I? Has anyone filed a dispute? And I out the money?

Any suggestions?

Please give more info. Was it a custom that needed to be made custom to your size color or was it pre made? Does the auction state that the seller only ships on X,y, and z days? Does the auction state first class, priority, or just a flat rate shipping? What did the sellers feedbaack look like?
I would definatally contact the seller and le them know that your part is missing. Let them know that you are aware the item was shipped on the 30th and that it only cost X.XX to ship to you and you feel that the $10 fee was unfair due to the fact that you are less than satisfied. You need to think about what you would like for the seller to do for you, and don't be afraid to ask. If she is not willing to do SOMETHING to compensate you I would request a refund, leave negative feed back, and/or contact ebay. Good luck

This is what I have been working on so far. My daughter saw the Taylor Swift Romeo and Juliet song video and she told me she wanted her gold Juliet dress. Well she pretty much yelled and screamed "Oh, mommy I want that dress!!! I have to have that dress!!!" So, this is my version so far. We did a fitting today (LOL!) and this is the only picture that came out decent. When I finish it completely I will get some better pics up for you.

No-not a custom LOL. I have emailed the seller twice and not gotten a reply. I am just not sure if I request a refund if I would only get what I paid for the item. I want the shipping back LOL
The auction stated "should receive within 5-6 business days" and specifically said priority shipping and made no mention of only shipping on certain days.

That is too funny! Thank you! Your dresses and your daughter are beautiful too! I made this one last night in a couple of hours so I am sure that with your talent you would have no problem whipping one up!

Thanks so much! what pattern did you use? I just love that style. It would make a great "holiday" dress! I can't wait to see the final models pics!

It is just a corset top and a skirt with elastic in the waist (with a home-made pettiskirt underneath). So, the dress is two pieces right now. I am not sure if I want to make it one piece, add a underskirt or what to do with the bottom of the skirt yet. I guess it's a work in progress .

Oh, I added very stiff interfacing (usually used for hats I think) to the bodice pieces and shaped the center front into a point at the bottom.

Thank you! and yes, she keeps me busy! I give the ladies in Joann's a good laugh when I go in there and tell them that my daughter put in her latest "order" for something and I am there to pick up fabric for it. I have a couple of more things that I bought stuff for and have yet to make. She wants a couple of Sharpay (HSM) outfits and skirts. Julia just loves her style and especially her shoes! She is just too funny!

 

[twob4him]

WOW! That minnie and mickey on an anchor set is AWSOME! She is so adoreable.

Michelle.....how is Chianna??? I know you had that doctors appointment this week? I have been praying for you all!

 

[mom2prettyprincess]

First off that dress is amazing...and 2nd...I guess I haven't learned my lesson not to be on here when my daughter is within 5 feet...She instantly said "Mommy I want that dress" (of course you do) & "Oh my Gosh, that girl is a beautiful princess".

I am far far away from that kind of sewing...heck I have had a brand new Brother CS 6000i sitting in my newly converted sewing room for ummmm 2 weeks and I am afraid to use it!!!

WOW it totally looked like a dress. I love the tip for the stiff interfacing and how you added the point. You are very talented!

I have had to file a dispute more then once via paypal and I have NEVER won BUT I have had a couple filed against me and they have ALWAYS won! I don't get it!

The last one I was told to ship the item back (they charged $11 shipping on a $15 item and cost them $5, it was filthy when I received it but was supposed to be new in package) and then they would refund my PURCHASE PRICE ONLY so not only was I out the $11 the first shipping but the $5 it would cost me to send back. I ended up just keeping it.

Did I ever tell anyone I HATE paypal!

Hope something works out Cindee. I assume you contacted the seller and let her know that it was missing a part and about the shipping.

I emailed the seller and have not heard back, so I went ahead an filed a complaint. The item is not as stated in the ad, so I guess we will see. I am just bummed, it was something Morgan wanted, and I THOUGHT I was getting a good deal. I have been lucky I guess and have not really had any problems with Paypal-(knock on wood LOL) I have heard HORROR stories!

It really irks me when things like this happen. I used to sell on ebay all the time and now so many sellers have made it bad IMO. I have bought maybe 5 things in the past year (minus some fabric I bought recently) but had issues with 2-3 of them.

For as much I have used paypal I really haven't had that much trouble but it really is irritating. I have easily done over 10,000 transactions. When I am thinking I empty my account and pay with a credit card. It way easier to deal with a cc then paypal. Of course I am usually too lazy (like today) to go empty it before paying.

Oh no, that stinks! I don't know what you should do, sorry. I know it would make me angry.

That is too funny! Thank you! Your dresses and your daughter are beautiful too! I made this one last night in a couple of hours so I am sure that with your talent you would have no problem whipping one up!

Again WOW.....a couple hours. It takes me forever!!! LOL. I guess I multi-task too much. Hahaha. Yeah, yeah, that's it, that's my story and I am sticking to it.

This might be a stupid question but why do you hate Paypal..shouldn't you hate ebay instead?

Paypal because it is practically impossible to get a human to talk to if you can find the phone # in the first place. I like a human if there is an issue.

You can have a delivery confirmation # and can show delivered but if you didn't print your label through paypal (instead you went to the post office) then they automatically side with the other person (the buyer in this case). I have never understood some of their thoughts and this being the first one! I usually do print my labels through them but there has been more then once where my printer just would not print.

I shipped a stocking overseas one time on the slow boat (so takes about 4-6 weeks) and when it arrived the person filed a claim stating there was a dead spider in the box. I am not saying there wasn't but if there was it sure as heck wasn't that big or I would have seen it and I didn't put it in there on purpose. I don't want to touch a spider or send a spider somewhere! Anyways, they refunded the $15 for the stocking and the $12 shipping without making them send it back.

I could go on with the stories I have personally encountered but really overall it is hardly any compared to what I have shipped and usually something far off crazy or just that they said it didn't arrive. I know things get lost, it happens alot more then I would like to think and so that isn't so much paypal but more the postal service.

Years ago I never received 2 items (2 different transactions) but when I tried to file a dispute because it wasn't $25 they wouldn't do anything about it. They let you go through all the steps and then it just says it doesn't qualify due to amount spent. I do think that has changed since then but not positive.
