Back in February, I sold a pair of Nordost Frey IC's to "Vleena2" on AudiogoN. He asked that I declare and insure them for $50, despite my warning him of the insurance consequences. Unfortunately, in my obsessive quest to please, I agreed. Never again.
Long story short:
The package was lost in the mail (USPS), and when I tried to refund Vleena2's money for the insurance and postage, he refused, claiming I defrauded him. Subsequently, he managed to defraud his credit card company into issuing a chargeback, and they found in his favor, despite my providing all of the shipping information--including the customs form, the USPS letter of final determination that the package was lost, and the USPS claims form.
Moral:
1) Don't under-declare;
2) Credit card companies apparently ignore evidence if it contradicts their customers; and
3) Don't sell to Vleena2 in Thailand. He absolutely refused to take any responsibility for the decision to under-declare, but instead decided to accuse me of fraud. He is the very definition of low-life scum.
Email me if you would like more details.
