Sales PAYPAL - IMPORTANT - ALL ORDERS CANCELLED


Dude that bites. I was going to do Paypal, but I'm glad I didn't now.

Noisome

Good luck to you all who did order Paypal. :(
 
That's horrible! I hope you can get it resolved, paypal has a history of sucking but this is pretty bad even for them.
 
If I were in the business of selling these things I wouldn't accept paypal anyhow... I suspect selling goods on a preorder basis is against their T&Cs or something.

Good luck sorting it out, but I suspect you would be better (and more protected) if you just took credit cards/cheques/... directly - although this doesn't help people who can only use paypal :(

As said, good luck. I don't envy you sorting this out, as they're awful to deal with!
 
I do not see how that can be ?? It is just a transfer of funds. Does not make sense to cancel the pre-orders. All you have to do is transf. out the money into your private bank account right away and there is nothing they can do in regards to the funds...

I have delt via my business for 5 years now with paypal and there has been zero issues.

It might be because someone reported you guys for credit card fraud or something. I would assume that would get the Paypal orders canceled.

I don't know if that's what happened, but my credit card got locked on suspicion of being stolen (couldn't order with it, didn't find out it was locked 'til the next day) and I got a call from my debit card company after ordering.

Or that.. <_<

My issues were probably just on my end then.
 
This really sucks.. I hope we can work this out. As I paid via Paypal, the money is officially out of my account as I have conformation that the transaction has been completed. I really do not mind as long as the following applies :

1) I get the money back
2) I still get one of the pre-orders as long as I can send payment via another method like
2a) Money Order
2b) Bank Draft
3) This really sucks....
3a) Did I mention that this really sucks...

D)

PS Craig :

Just move the date up so that you fall into the 20 day mark and then transf. all funds out of your account.
 
Now how would they have figured that out, unless someone maliciously told them...

I'm pretty sure that's illegal :ph34r:

Not sure what you can do.
 
Hmm.. that's not good.
So this applies to gp2x.de as well I guess? I think for pre-orders from gp2x.de that is pretty easy to solve, they could change their paypal to bank transfer.
 
Horrible, horrible. That's like a kick in the junk!!! I feel bad for the buyers and the makers. Bet it is associated with the DDoS not to be a conspirator...

How will this affect other orders and ship dates now? :(

Exactly. You can't make a product without capital.

Oh Bollocks.
 
Buff :( And when we will get the money refund? This is a bad thing :(
 
whoa I was gonna use paypal but I was too lazy to find that electronic key thing that gives you a number so you can login, so I just used the website instead :lol:

Glad I did I guess...

They can hold my cash for sure, I hope they would if a decision must be made....I wonder what % of orders came that way...I'm really grumbling inside and I'm not hungry :( maybe the extended buy period pushed above the 3k mark...
