So Unlucky lately!

Been pretty unlucky lately.

20th Jan kena a negative feedback at ebay coz ive sent the wrong version of hide's earring to buyer. She's an italian girl with only 3o ratings. She didnt even email me to check prior leaving feedback. Thus, send her the correct pair of earrings immediately after viewing her negative remark. Informed her will send her the correct set. Her immediate reply was "Ok, i will wait." Silly rite? Didnt even bother to say sorry about the negative feedback (it cannot be removed) or offer to return the incorrect version!!!!~ Her rating smear our good record of 100% positive to a 99.3% feedback! I dont understand why she dont bother to check with us before leaving the negative feedback??

The worst one is this American girl. She bought from us since Oct and guess what? Since end of Dec till yesterday, Paypal send us "Chargeback" notices (4 altogether, more to come!) to say all her payments of S$500+ is UNAUTHORISED by the credit card holder! So, her credit card company took back this amount from Paypal.

Thus, paypal have to dock this amount from our Paypal account!!~ Until her parents pay up (we suspect she used her parent's credit card without permission), then Paypal will credit back this amount to us within next 75days! OMG!~

Had emailed her this morning to remind her to inform her parents to make whatever payments to the bank BECAUSE she is the ONE WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL HER PURCHASES!!~ Just cant imagine we were being made the scapegoat for her purchase and losing some S$500+ for nothing!~ Wah,,have to sell hw many items to make this S$500 profit??!!!~ Seems like an "Innocent" Fraud. Hard to imagine that this girl is so irresponsible! She said she had informed her parents to make these payments when we checked with her on the first Paypal's chargeback at the end of Dec. SICK and most Unfortunately, she is an A9 and Miyavi fan. Shame on you!

Hope she responses..if not, not sure what to do. You cant tell whether it is fraud immediately coz payment by credit card goes thru to our paypal account as per normal. It is only after 1 month or so, if the credit card holder refuses to make the payment after receiving the statement, they will tell their bank "UNAUTHORISED PAYMENT" and their bank would refer to paypal and take back their (the bank's) money coz their client DIDNT INITIATE THE PAYMENT! If all fans are like this girl, VS would ceased to exist!!~

Next, is the stock market. This one i dont have any control,,so i shan't rave about it...hope it recovers soon. My 4-digit sum has been evaporated so far.. one forum er lost a 6-digit!!~ So, my losses are very minimal already.

Ive read somewhere that those bankers who borrowed $ to mortgage lender who have little repayment ability should be jailed. They had caused the sub-prime crisis in America, and in turn, everyone around the world is being burdened! Well said!! They packaged/chopped up these risky mortgages into small investments products and sell them to clients and other overseas banks. Thus, when the borrowers were unable to pay, it results in the recent a worldwide financial meltdown.

These bankers always looks for ways to fatten their pockets, so they will repack these risky mortgages nicely and into complicated terms, so ppl would unsuspectedly purchase it. At the end of it, these bankers still get fat bonuses! These were wat ive heard over at bbc last nite where they interview some top financials. Sometimes, at night when i cant sleep, will listen to the bbc, coz it is daytime news in USA and Europe.

Sucks!! Maybe ive offended some "xiao ren?" Must go temple liao!~

Pray that my unluckiness ends immediately..i am very much hopeful about X-Japan's concert tickets. The results will be out on 30th Jan!!~ Today a friend told me hide's replacement might be Miyavi.. 0__O". I would prefer Sugizo... Had a total of 8 sets of tickets for both nights in the system. Kiasu rite??? Coz ive ambushed all my Japanese friends (3 actually) to apply the maximum they can. Each can apply up to 4 tickets for each nights. *kiasu is the best policy here*

If cant get the tickets, maybe will go to Tokyo Dome and evesdrop the concert...lolz!!~ XD

O_____________________O.

that is a lot of unfortunate luck chwa :(.

i'm reading this one and then reading backwards.

your buyer annoys me <.<

your ebayer pisses me off even more. yea, we had one negative feedback that we finally got back up to 99%. ebay sucks.

ummm you can both "mutually withdraw" feedback and just not get any feedback for that transaction.

i hope you get to see X-japan. i was going to e-mail you about it, but i figured you would know of course ^-^!

*sending you good thoughts*

oh go you!

they might add more seats for x-japan ;).

" Due to the unexpected sell out through Yoshiki Mobile alone, to accommodate as many fans as possible, plans to add to seat capacity are under consideration, with seats to be added to the back of the stage, making for a full 360 degree seat placement, and Premium seats, in front front center stage, to be auctioned off; part of the sales revenue will be donated to a Bone Marrow Donor's Bank."
