I earned some amazon vouchers through my credit card, but really wanted to turn them into cash so I put them up on Ebay as e-vouchers with the intention of sending the code when paid.
As have other e-vouchers I have seen, these have gone for more than face value. One £20 one went for £27.59 even :shock:
Great. But.... now I read that some people pay then say they never received the code and then want money back and because there's no proof of posting they get a refund from paypal. I'm worried now. :roll:

I sent the codes via ebay messaging so at least there's proof there and if they can read emails to make a claim they can read email to get voucher... you'd hope that would make sense.
Anyway, not an issue at present as they've paid and all quiet on the western front. Buyers seemed to have reasonably good feedback and their addresses were supplied, so I could always send via snail mail if worst comes to the worst.
I understand also there are innocent reasons - people without credit cards for example.
Anybody any experience of this?

) you will always get those who will regularly make a claim that they 'never received' the item and then get a refund or insist on a refund. There is all too much reliance on the buyer being honest, which shouldn't be much to ask. I will use recorded delivery if I ever sell an item that is over £20-£30, just to be sure. Thankfully though, the vast majority are honest, its just those few that ruin it for others.
