Anyone worked with COINSHOP on Amazon?

[jasjoh]

Holy cow @ these revelations. Time to go cancel my order / file a claim

Just got a reply. Here's my original message.

Hi There, The USPS tracking number you provided shows that shipping info was received on Jan 28th but my items have still not been shipped. It's now over two weeks since I placed my order. Did it get lost?

Here's his reply.

Jason, We ship the Cardboard via media mail. The tracking number will not report along the way. Your package should just "show up" We are working with Amazon to have media mail utilize the tracking. Please let us know... Thanks, Kevin Coinshop

Hmm ...

Told you it was Kevin...

You want I should go break his legs??

Chris called it...it IS Kevin! What a twist, from a normal thread to a revelation of a scammer!
Sue him...get him off Amazon, for god sakes don't let this guy on the internet!

So can Chris and I get a high five or something for the enlightenment?

Sure thing Sean, you get 2 enlightenment points. Once you reach 17 points you get to redeem them for a prize...

Sounds like the newest weight loss fad...

Hey all, quick update.

My order arrived yesterday afternoon. Kevin mentioned he shipped it via USPS Media Mailer on Jan 29th, so that would mean shipping took 10 business days (12 included Saturday). I've never heard of any USPS shipments of any kind taking longer than 5 business days, even across country, so I think there is still something fishy.

Since I received the merchandise and he replied promptly to my questions, he gets a 4 out of 5.

Well I'm glad that you actually got the shipment...it certainly could have been worse. Even so, I think the seller should still be reported. You can't risk having other people getting ripped off.

[liveandievarieties]

Media mail and parcel post take quite a while, often more than 7 or 8 days.

I just wanted to repeat this. I may even quote it again. Now if I can just get ALL Ebay buyers to understand that if they don't pay for priority shipping, they may not get their item in two days.

[liveandievarieties]

Good luck with that Jody, they all want SAME DAY shipping, but only if it's free... Wal-Mart, er I mean eBay has really been pushingg the "instant delivery".

[jallengomez]

I know Chris; it's driving me crazy. If I consistently sold $1000 items, I'd throw in free priority shipping, but as it stands, I'd be upside down real quick if I started offering free shipping, and many of the items don't warrant the cost of priority shipping so the bidders wouldn't be willing to pay for it. I can usually tell when someone leaves me a low star-rating for shipping. Every single time someone has left me a low star-rating, they've gotten their item within Ebay's estimated delivery time for the given shipping they paid for.

That has happened to me before, but eBay goes in and changes it. EBay feels if you got it to them within the reasonable time eBay shows, your rating should reflect that. I think they have changed lower ratings about 12 times in the past 12 months.
