    Has anyone had any problems with ebay seller "xtrememicro"?

    Who are you referring to with "we"? Clearly I (as extensively documented) had an unpleasant experience with that particular seller. And do did several others just weeks after I initially reported it (I am the one who started this thread). That we are not dealing with pastors and priests here is...

    Has anyone had any problems with ebay seller "xtrememicro"?

    I want to follow up and rectify couple points: The seller (xtrememicro) eventually shipped and the 2 CPUs (E5 2650 v4) were eventually delivered. I just tested them and they seem to be running fine and because they consume less energy and run way cooler than my current dual E5 2690 v3 chips I...

    Has anyone had any problems with ebay seller "xtrememicro"?

    I have no idea why this seller apparently worked out fine in the past but as of now this is con artist. Seller provided a tracking number which proved to be fake. Ebay and Paypal are investigating right now and promised a full charge-back in 10 days should my claims hold up. They are trying to...

    Has anyone had any problems with ebay seller "xtrememicro"?

    Thanks, I gave the seller another day before I instruct my credit card company to launch an investigation and apply for a charge back. Will keep the thread updated and will of course update the thread should the seller come around and refund the purchase on his own accord or send out the item as...

    Has anyone had any problems with ebay seller "xtrememicro"?

    what if paid by credit card and not via PayPal? Does a similar insurance exist or can I request a refund if it can be proven that the seller has not shipped anything after 10 days or so? I have to say I am very disappointed about my Ebay experience so far. I have way better experience with...

    Has anyone had any problems with ebay seller "xtrememicro"?

    From my experience I will next time communicate with several sellers beforehand and see how fast they respond and how they communicate. In this case the seller does not respond at all to multiple requests for an update.

    Has anyone had any problems with ebay seller "xtrememicro"?

    I reside in Hong Kong, and Ebay indicates the CPUs ship from HK, that I am not concerned about. I am concerned its the 7th day and nothing has even shipped yet and worse yet, the seller does not respond to any messages or requests for update for the 3rd day now.

    Has anyone had any problems with ebay seller "xtrememicro"?

    Hello, I have ordered 2x E5-2650V4 CPUs almost a week ago and made prompt payment on Ebay. The seller has held up shipment for three days and claimed he never received payment. Then he mentioned that he received payment. Since then he/she has not been forthcoming in any communication nor has...

    yes, why? Do you mind sharing your experience regarding this seller? And do you know sellers that sell QS of E5-2630 v4 or preferably E5-2650 v4 ?

    How do I know if the CPU's on Ebay are the correct CPU?

    Can anyone please recommend sellers that sell QS (not ES) of any of the E5 2630 v4 or 2650 v4 CPUs? By the way, I strongly recommend to be careful about one Japanese seller on Ebay. I purchased 2x E5 2650 v4 (ES) and the seller cancelled (and refunded) the transaction twice and wanted to force...
