Iwon a set of six simpsons figures off ebay from seller vvcw on the 7th of august. i waited for a bit and then i emailed david (the seller) on the morning of the 26th aug asking if he had recieved my payment because i didn't see any feedback from him and i wonder if it was lost or just not there yet. he replied that yes he did received my payment the week before but got so busy he forgotten to ship out my order, but he reasured me that he was going to take them to the post office that day and they should be here soon. well i waited till around the middle of sept and i emailed him again. this time he stated that they went out on the earlier date(26th) and that he would scan and email me the shipping info. i thought this was proper because i did pay extra for insurance and tracking. i waited around another week for them to arrive and on september 20th i emailed again. this time his response was that they just went out september 19th airmail and he would email me the shipping record. now i was alittle mad because what he said eairlier and emailed him back with some good questions but nothing mean. i asked why he told me that they went out on the 28th of august and why he stated just weeks later he would send me a shipping receipt showing that he shipped on that date. well i received no reply. again i emailed and still no reply. i did this for about couple more weeks and finally went to squaretrade. well he responded and filled in the spots on squaretrade stating he was going to check with his postal company and he would be there. well again i fell for it. after many more weeks and messages in which he made up excusses like its must be delayed in customs or the canadian postal workers were at fault. i again asked about the shipping record, my insurance that i paid for and the tracking number. well he never answered any of them and i did ask repeatively. on oct 14th he messaged that he went and got a package inquiery from his post office and would complete it and submit it and that he would scan and email me a copy. i still have yet to recieve that also. so this is about where i am now with this seller. i could use any help or at the least warn others about him. i thank you for your time.

i paid with a western union money order #06186051329 in the amount of $56. i sent it to

i won the auction on a sunday...i think august 30th or 31st. i paid paypal on september 1st, the next day. i won another auction a week later and received the item the next week and still i had nothing from david chow. i sent multiple emails, none that were answered. finally a month later the item was delivered and it was defected. i think it was originally a defected item that he sent out cuz there is no way a strap on the pad would rip off through delivery. also the throat gaurd was off the masked and that cannot be properly put back on. he finally replied to an email regarding the defected item and told me he had nothing to do with it, that since i purchased insurance through the post office that i should claim the item there.

I left him negative feedback because I bought a product from him and it took over a month to get here and in the meantime I was trying to email him to get some answers as to why i still hadnt received the product. He didn't reply back and I was getting upset so I sent him another email stating that I would give him negative feedback if he didn't give me an excuse for not replying or sending me the product. He finally responded but it was too little too late because I had already been more than a month and nothing. thnaks, javiandliz

The package (gorydeath2@hotmail.com) was sent out via Canada Parcel Post Air on September 19th, 2003. I have the mailing receipt which stated the date and custom form 2976-A number. I have provided this information to the buyer and asked the buyer to inquire and to obtain written formal repsonse from either her post office or Canadian custom in regarding to this situation. From the conversation records between the buyer and me, it is clear that the buyer had made little attempt trying to get in contact with her post office nor the Canadian custom.I have obtained the parcel inquiry form from the post office and am in the process of going through the necessary protocol in tracking this package and receiving formal response from the post office. I can provide all documentation and communication transcript if needed.  David Chow

I am currently going thru the same thing with him. He claims he has to check his records for the sale I told him I have the invoice with the proof of my purchase and I also sent him a copy of the money order stub it will have been 3 weeks now from date of purchase and one week since he last contacted me...any help from your mishaps with him would be greatly appreciated....thanks....
