Person paid after I relisted and sold item

Question:

I also said that instead of me sending the money order back, I could pay him his refund with PayPal or he could cancel the money order. it’s not all that easy to "cancel" a money order

I know that. I have not heard back form him yet and until I do,(at least another weekI will wait ) I will not be sending him back the money order. T

Response:

My recommendation was to endorse the MO back to the bidder, copy both sides for your records, and send it back to him. Do, however, consider any other alternatives proposed here. Void-and-return might have some benefits, depending on issuer refund policies.

postal (at least in my experience) will let the sender cash out a MO even with a payee filled in..(mine was sent back)   no charge (other than what I paid to buy the MO)

Response:

Chances are you both are still armed with single-shot feedback phasers. I thought this is something that eBay will remove. A NAHU’d coming back with negative feedbacl.

    Yes, they will, if he does (and if you ask). Kris

I thought this is something that eBay will remove. A NAHU’d coming back with negative feedbacl. I suggest you keep yours in handy storage for the moment.

I cannot do anything else, as you cannot give him any feedback as I said he is suspended. If NPB-NARU-now-undead bidder realizes that they have an FB shot at you, they may take it. If you don’t shoot first, this may escape their notice until the 90+day expiry occurs, after which they may think that they can’t leave FB (not true, but let them think that). When eBay restored the account,

Hasn’t yet. eBay may have issued a warning about leaving FB, particularly Negative FB on any pre-NARU auctions. I don’t know.

He might not get back on,as unless someone rescinds the credit? If they do Neg you, reportedly this sort of post-NARU FB is easy to get removed. It will be easier if you have not also posted negative on the non-deal. … which would mean three other people filed for a credit before me,as when I filed he was already gone. Yes, but the bidder doesn’t know who did what when. They may well consider you to be one of "nasty, we hates them" sellers that got them "unfairly" kicked off eBay.

If he gives me a negative this is not a problem as I do believe I can have it removed. My ID is not unblemished, as I have four negatives ,(350 )positives that have come form people that did not pay me and I negged them. So don’t discharge that FB weapon. Let the bidder ponder it. And don’t even bring up the topic of FB in any communications.

I haven’t as feedback really is not that important to me.

I was not able to give him feedback ,nor he me,as he was NARU’d before I even did my credit which would mean three other people filed for a credit before me,as when I filed he was already gone. I have already given and received feedback form the second buyer.

Don’t worry about "being small" (reminds me of the old Steve Martin thing).   You’re not. He’s really trying to get you to withdraw the FVF, so he can get reinstated.   You don’t want to do that, because it’s obvious he "stiffed" others, too. Send his money order back in a small box or padded envelope (at least 3/4" thick) and put a delivery confirmation on it….or even registered mail, if you want to pay for that. Don’t get into a lot of email conversations; just send him one short email telling him that his payment could not be accepted and is being returned. Kris

Does he have a PayPal account? … or he could cancel the money order.
