Just thought I'd share this.
I had an auction go and the person paid me about 2 minuites after the auction ended using PayPal. I packed the piece and sent it out next morning.
About 4 or 5 days later I got home and there was a PayPal payment for the painting .. same eBay ID .. different name, different address. [b]Strange[/]
I wrote the lady back and explained that the person already paid and the piece had been shipped to the gentleman. Explained that I had no idea how this could happen and that I could refund her the amoutn she paid through paypal but of course paypal would take their money from her and from me as they get a share of each transaction.
Being as the former auction went for a good price I offered her a choice form 9 different paintings of the same size. Her and her husband chose one and wrote me a very nice email thanking me for being so kind. Geepers, I was only too happy to get the sale for a good price and really happy that she was happy in the end too.
Everybody is :D
