Friends,
This is just to caution you against ebay seller "jayashree01". His real name is Jayant Sur, hailing from West Bengal. His listings on ebay are mostly for bollywood LPs. I bought few LPs from him and finally lost my money.
As things turned out:
-> I ordered a few LPs from him through ebay. The first couple of them arrived as expected. Later he contacted me personally through email and whatsapp and offered to sell directly.
-> I ordered a bollywood LP "Dance Dance" in April 2017 and asked him to ship it to one of our forum members in Bangalore (since I stay at Singapore). The LP was not delivered and the seller tells me that probably its lost in shipping so he can send me a second copy. I agreed.
-> This time I wanted him to ship it to me directly to Singapore so I decided to buy couple of more LPs from him and do a combined shipping to Singapore. I bought "Baton Baton Mein" and "Khatta Meetha" LPs and asked him to send all of them to Singapore.
-> NONE OF THEM WERE DELIVERED.
-> It was now January 2018. I was quite worried. I asked him about it, he again said the same thing, "He had sent it but probably its lost in transit". I was too naive to believe him again on the same excuse.
-> He promised to send me yet another copy of all 3 LPs at the soonest. I told him to send via Speedpost and send me a tracking number asap.
-> Another one month goes, no delivery, no tracking number even after repeated reminders.
-> Finally I asked for a full refund and that is when he showed his true colors and started getting very abusive.
-> I filed a Paypal dispute. But Paypal only allows disputes for transaction up to 180 days old so they registered the dispute for the later 2 LPs. The first LP (Dance Dance was out of 180 days range already) so no dispute could be recorded.
-> I got back the money for the 2 LPs through paypal settlement. Jayant Sur aka "jayashree01" did not even contest the dispute, probably because he did not have any evidence of any shipment.
-> Basically, throughout he had been lying. He never intended to send me any LPs. Who knows if he even possessed any of those LPs that he tried to sell me.
-> Anyway, I lost the money on the Dance Dance LP after a very disgusting experience with this seller.
Lesson learnt! Beware of such sellers and their tactics.
