You should always use our billing system when selling products on our site.

Code
[bill=####]youremail@domain.com[/bill]


Replace youremail@domain.com with your email address.

Replace #### with the centwise value equal to the price you are charging.

If you used our billing system to send them a bill, you should have received an email notification after they paid. The notification will contain their mafia account name, paypal email address, and how much they paid. If you did not receive the email notification, then you should not have sent the product.

If you did not use our billing system or if you sent the product without first receiving the payment notification, that is your own fault. Customers think they sent a payment and really they didn't on a regular basis. That is the double edged sword of using technology to sell your goods. Sometimes customers do not know how to properly use the payment processor ... and mistakenly tell you they paid when really they did not. It is your duty as a seller to check your email inbox for money received notifications from our billing system. We set up our own billing system for all sellers to use for a reason, to prevent this type of mistake from happening.

You don't. You accidentally sent someone a free product. The issue is that you made a mistake. No one is responsible for that except for you. In business as sellers we make mistakes, we chalk it up to experience, and we do not make the mistake a second time. Make sure you use our billing system and make sure you check for email notifications from it ... you will not make the mistake again.
