    Default paypal advice!

    heres the story..

    basically i sold virtual items (not habbo ) for $160 via paypal in whic after the trade (gave items and been paid) i noticed the name was different from paypal making me think it was stolen.

    i then ignored this and refreshed paypal to double check the cash to find that he had opened a case saying he never made the payment and wanted his money back!
    and i have been put into negative (went from £4.50 to £6.91 since 16th september) and paypal have the $160 on hold (never spent it).

    when i go to click to refund it it says i don't have funds etc which i am really confused about!

    basically all i want to know is *** am i supposed to do? i cant refund it, i been put in negative and the cash i never spent, paypal have it on hold!

    it also says on the case:
    Status Details:

    my 3 options:

    I have posted the item and I can provide proof that the item was posted through an approved postal service to the address on the Transaction Details page. - ASKS FOR POSTAGE DETAILS, CANT DO THIS DUE TO IT BEING AN MSN TRADE

    I have not posted the item and I will refund the payment.

    This happened to me, you need to reply on the dispute saying that he has recieved the items and it's an in-game item, so proof cannot be given. They then close the dispute.

    I'm gunna let others have their input because I'm not the most knowledgable with PayPal, but all I am saying is, if you stay in a negative balance, they WILL start sending you letters, court dates etc

    oh ****, what happens if i pay off negative?
    and does it sound like there wanting me to get another $160? because i still had $160 in my paypal balance (but convertered to GBP which was like 94.60 or something so is that maybe why im in negative? and once i paid off that i'll be fine? i dunnooo! )

    You're ******, I did this, sold like 2,000 habbo coins on Ebay for £80 about a year ago, (or something like that) ~ next day, the buyer disputed the payment, and I didn't have a leg to stand on, so I am sorry to say, but you won't be getting that money.

    As for the negative payment, I don't know on that one, just pay it back if you can, or close you're paypal account and whatnot if you can't?

    I really wish I could help you get your money back, but I can't, it's now impossible for you to get that money back, you have no proof of transaction, nothing, and even if you did, they wouldn't allow it, because they nor Habbo don't allow virtual online goods (owned by Sulake) to be sold.

    Sorry to break it to you.

    Re-read my post, I added some more information ; and yes, the person who send the cash, got it back, it's a well known scam, next time, to avoid this, get them to send you the money through the post, that's what I'd do if I ever sold virtual goods again.

    I don't know, you may need to pay off your debt first, but I haven't had that problem before so I cannot comment.

    You won't get a refund, because you will not get your stuff back, basically, he's took your ''items'' - and he's getting his money back too, and he's leaving you with the debt.
