Paypal F&FHow were you paid for the fish?
Well since it's F&F (which is against forum rules, if it was a transaction on R2R) then AFAIK you have all of the power to handle it however you see fit. The buyer has no recourse that I know of.Paypal F&F
Paypal F&F
I might have misunderstood. And yes, F&F on PayPal a seller has no responsibility as they aren't a "seller".I dont know how you felt that with my comment, clearly 100% hit as mentioned in that comment is not right and does not mean 50/50 whatsoever.
But if the seller didn’t ask about DOA, or it wasn’t mentioned in the sale post, the OP isn’t responsible.If you look at people selling livestock it is almost always that the seller assumes responsibility for DOA whether the seller is a business or an individual.
But if the seller didn’t ask about DOA, or it wasn’t mentioned in the sale post, the OP isn’t responsible.
Alright, here is my opinion. The price you paid for the fish is irrelevant. You could have paid $5 or $5000, the second you agreed on $500 that became the new price/value of the fish. I don't think the shipping he paid should play a roll in this. No LFS in the world will cover DOA on a fish they shipped for someone else, its not their sale. They're making no money off it so they wont assume any responsibility beyond packing it as best they can.Paypal F&F
We will have to disagree on this. I don't feel as though because it wasn't mentioned it clears the seller of all responsibility. If the seller isn't responsible for it then they should at least share the liability.But if the seller didn’t ask about DOA, or it wasn’t mentioned in the sale post, the OP isn’t responsible.
The deal is not "fair" to you, but a lot of fault ends up being yours for not clarifying with LFS/shipper. They obviously cannot "deny any responsibility" since the packaging was done by the LFS who also chose the shipper and shipping method and the shipper handled the package until delivery, but, unless you are protected under some form of contract, this will be a nearly impossible battle to fight. You still should check into LFS policies and FedEx policies to find any protection possible for your costs, but it may likely be a case where you are out the money as a learning experience.Buyer asked me if I ever shipped before and I said Yes, but I would take the items to my LFS and they would pack it for me and ship.
Shipment was done and the fish was DOA, the buyer said the packaging was not good and the box was wet and damaged. I spoke to my LFS and they deny any responsibility, Fed ex denys damaging the box.
I told the guy I would ask my buddy and send him his black tang but its been 2 weeks since he is not able to catch it and today when I met him, he told me that this deal is not fair for me since I lost a pet.
What should I do?
