Complain about Record Village

Good luck with that. Most complaints fall on deaf ears I am afraid.

I would urge everyone who has been ripped off by this despicable scammer to complain as loudly and furiously as possible. He has ripped hundreds of honest ebayers off and the list grows daily.

If ebay refuse to stop him, then they are doing nothing more than facilitating theft!

Watchdog respond to volume of complaints. Every one makes a difference.

Good work. Will be doing that soon.

Hi Mate,

In the same boat as you having tried to buy a Cd from ripoff village - bought a 'buy it now' item in January and paid instantly (like I always do). Heard nothing for a week so I chased them only to be told the item was out of stock - 'buy it now'? The feedback did not look nearly so bad in Jan.

I have sent countless messages since and have had no response, does not answer his phone either. I now have put a claim into Pay Pal to get my money back but I would like to know the most effective way of raising the issue with E-Bay - not as easy as it sounds! I feel strongly that others should not get duped into dealing with this 'power seller'.

I have been in touch with trading standards but have had no response thus far.

Anything we can do to get this joker shut down will be worthwhile.

He is checking his account as I see he has left + feedback for the few lucky people who got a CD from him - I notice he does not have the balls to challenge any of the negs.

Any advice you can offer would be great.

Best regards

Derek

i would urge as many people as possible to not only report this con artist to bbc watchdog but also to include e bays total disregard for the protection of its customers. i have phoned them twice and sent 5 e mails still no action,and i know many of you out there have done the same. perhaps this would be good advertising for them when they are on bbc1 making excuses!! the more reports to watchdog the more likely this is to happen.i await this day with anticipation!! i am not sure whether there this e bay safety centre actually exists but their customer service system is a complete joke.how much evidence do they require,or is possible criminal activity simply not enough any more?
