Morena Lakes, Ca.

I sent her a money order for 3 presale beanies on Dec 18th through her Ebay listings. They were expensive but decent prices. Had to keep asking about receipt? I have sent out 85 money orders for Ebay purchased and none have ever gone missing. After several attempts to get an answer I rec'd a nasty, verbally abusive phone call from Mr. Sawyer threatening me with non payment. I had already sent them the money order number. I had to hang up the phone and they tried again but I would not answer. They filed against me for non payment and I filed against them for harassment and threats. I have kept a file and it is full of lies and threats and a great deal of nastiness all on their part.

I checked on my money order and it has not been cashed but the beanies have since increased in price. I suspect that when they get a letter with an MO and the value of those beanies increase - how hard is it to say 'you never got it' - only I have been pressing so they are getting back at me with nasty threats of being thrown out of ebay. Yes, they do a lot of selling BUT I WON'T DEAL WITH THEM. These folks can't be trusted and by their language and behavior have proven to be predatory!.

Comments on Ty.com have uncovered some similar behavior that others have experienced with this seller. PS I have 100% + feedback as a purchaser and never have encountered this behavior before and hopefully never again.

It is now costing me 15 dollars to recover my funds (hopefully) which is $97.55 and they have also accused me of being crazy. Oh well whatever floats their boat. Ebay makes money from them so why rock it ---what a shame!

"Dear Mr. and Mrs. Smith:

I have already emailed you in regards to your refund please stop emailing me. Your future emails will be deleted and not read."

More lies from him since I have never received any e-mails reguarding my refund!

All I want is my $187.00 refunded ASAP!

I have filed suit with FBI Fraud department and plan on taking this as far as it will go!

This has been going on now since February 2004!

This is outragious!

I did get my money back but it was not because of any thing Estie Sawyer did. I had purchased the six Asian Beanies for about $85 and over the next several months, I got one excuse after another as to why I had not received the bears. Then the communication stopped. I complained to ebay, tried to get results with "Square Trade", even talked with my lawyer and the police in California, but Estie said the items had been shipped and she was not responsible. Of course, I had paid the insurance (like so many others seemed to have done) but she took no responsibility. I finally called my Discover card and, even though it had been over 8 months, they charged back her account and got my $85 for me. I was lucky it seems. She needs to be banned from ebay!

Good luck to everyone who has ever dealt with tweety78. She is con artist and a thief!

Yours truly,

PS... I have also sent a copy of this letter to ebay customer service.

JAMES GORHMAN
His email address is : jfelix43@hotmail.com
His EBAY user id is Buyer jfelix02818

This man not only lied to Paypal about the shipping time, he told them the item was never shipped. In the end Mr felix was refunded his money and still continues to harras me and run my name to the ground . He also stated i never contacted him, in which i have several e-mails to show otherwise. I think this person maliciously tried to destroy my rep on ebay. I would like him reported as he is a very horrible person to deal with. I am glad our dealings are done...As in the past he is one of 2 people that are very dificult to deal with on e-bay. He should read auction shipping times more closely...

THANKS

I don't know who the heck this "Edward Pierre" is but I certainly didn't get any refund. Here are the true details of the paypal transaction:

Oct. 22, 2004 Payment To wendy wisch-zwerschke
Completed Details -$129.99 USD $0.00 USD
-$129.99 USD $0.00 USD

Oct. 22, 2004 Transfer From Bank Account Completed Details $129.99

USD $0.00 USD $129.99 USD $129.99 USD

That is the only activity for my account under her name. If she sent out any refund (which I don't think she did, as she has lied every step of the way, so far) then she certainly didn't send it to me.

Note from Mediator, Pat.
Ms. Wisch-Zwerschke requested that her bad trader page be taken down. Because of this recent complaint, the page will remain up. Since her eBay feedback has been made private, all consumers should use caution. She is now threatening to sue Traderlist.
Her bad trader page is www.traderlist.com/WendyWisch-Zwerschke.html

Follow-up from Mediator, Pat

Ms. Wisch-Zwerschke has now sent a message to her victim telling him she is sending a refund.

Hi,

I just wanted to let you know that I have filed a fraud complaint against WendyWisch-Zwerschke, of Hinsdale, IL. I can see after searching via google that a previous complaint was listed for her on your site under the email address:

xfish4x@aol.com

Her new email address is:

thestarfish@comcast.net

I paid $129.99 via paypal for a portable fireplace on ebay. It has been almost 2 months and I have not received the item. When I confronted her on this, she called me a "psychopath" on her feedback and then lied, writing that it had been sent. She also refused any Square Trade service to resolve the situation.I would appreciate it if you could list her name on your site. Thanks!
Her ebay id is: ****starfish****

thanks
AGAIN I NEED MY NAME REMOVED AS IN AUGUST I WAS PROMISED OFF THE ENTIRE WEB.....

Nov. 15, 2004 Payment From edward pierre Held Details $129.99 USD -$4.07 USD $125.92 USD

Dec. 6, 2004 Temporary Hold For Buyer Dispute Placed Details -$129.99 USD $4.07 USD -$125.92 USD

refund completed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just like everyone here before me I ordered $180.00 worth of shirts in February 2004... and guess what...all I have received is a bunch of lies! Promised many refunds and shirt delivery stories, but there is nothing in my hand but hot air! My last email from Mark stated that he had closed my account because I had become abusive! If his definition of abusive is demanding something that you paid for 9 months ago, so be it. I am ready to get on board with eveyone here and see him in court.

FYI..just noticed that QVC is selling some of their merchandise....perhaps they need to be allerted to this companies wrong doings!

Fraudulent sellers information:
Name: Isreal Ramos
user ID: cd_worlds (on eBay)

Complaint:

I won and paid for an auction. 2 days later, eBay contacted me regarding this person, stating they had been suspended. I have emailed this person over and over with no response. I filed a complaint with Paypal, who sided with me. However, the seller has no funds available in the account to recover.

Please use caution dealing with this person. They have 2 email addresses.
