1) Jean Sanon 1452 McKinley Street Philadelphia, PA 19149-2705
Purchased a chip via eBay, then claimed it did not work. Opened a claim with paypal and would not respond to our messages. Convinced paypal to refund their moeny if they sent back the item. They sent the original package, but the chip was not returned. Instead, they returned an old rotor button (see below). Obviously the chip worked well enough for them to keep it and trick ebay / the post office by putting in an object of similar weight. They received their refund and the 'defective' chip. Avoid these deadbeats.

Purchased a chip via eBay, then claimed they did not receive it only a few days after shipment. They were aware it can take weeks to deliver to Africa, and tracking does not work. They then opened a case saying the following:
The buyer didn't receive the item Buyer requested A refund Comments: I have not received the item.
They convinced paypal to refund their money, claiming they never received the chip. Needless to say, we no longer ship to Africa. Avoid these deadbeats.

Purchased a chip via eBay, then claimed they did not receive it only a few days after shipment. They were aware it can take weeks to deliver to Africa, and tracking does not work. They then opened a case saying the following:
Aug. 9 - The buyer didn't receive the item Comments: Please advise delivery date. Usps status not up to date
They convinced ebay the item was never recieved, knowing there is no way for them to tell. Of course, ebay requires a refund be sent. They have their money and the chip. We lost a chip, and had to pay shipping for free. Needless to say, we no longer ship to Africa. Avoid these scammers. Remember what you hear about Africa being the scam capital of the world? Well, it's true!
