I stated in the thread clearly that I will not wash my dishes in public.
But at least I owe you an answer. As your mail system seems defective and I am into it anyway, here is the answer which I first sent yesterday, but was bounced two times now.
Really, funny, the email I have from you says something very
different. You never asked me about the condition of the parcel? I advised you the board was dead and your response was, "Are you sure?
Did you make any mistakes in putting the things together?"
Quote from my email from 31.05.2007:
> I do not clearly know whether the boards worked here (and told you so)
> i do not know what happened to the boards on its lomg trip around the world (you did not mention, whether the package was damaged or opened)
> I do not knwo what you did with the boards and hown much experience you have in putting systems together
> I do not know if you are trying to trick me to get your money back
No question marks but clear open points, dont you think? In the paypal-procedure you told them of a damage on the outside and complained about shipping costs, but you did not answer my questions.
I replied no that I didn't make mistakes and your next reply was, "At first, I am sorry, that you have problems withe the two boards. But I cannot be of much help"
This is true., I have NOT TESTED the boards. What in this sentence dont you understand? They have been pulled working, but not tested prior shipping. That was stated in the acution text and repeated to you by mail as you are not a german native speaker. You accepted this condition of the cards happyly that you do not have to pay EUR 400,- for a mainboard.
I answered all your questions, the trouble I asked a lot more and got these responses!
See above.
You then went to rant about selling untested boards etc and paying a fraction etc. You never confirmed anything prior in fact I clearly asked you if they worked prior to paying and shipping to which you replied, "Both boards were pulled from working systems a few weeks ago"
That is right.
I have all the emails here.
Fine. Read them.
I notice you didn't comment about the claims of doctorq but thats your style isn't it. Avoid the hard questions. So whats with the dispute on eBay then?
I have discussed the topic with him extensively. In privat mails. Ask him for my comments on this.
I find your comments on eBay thou quite disturbing thou. You stated that I had committed a crime when the money was withdrawn out of your account by Paypal. I of course advised you that it was called fraud when you sold faulty goods as working and your response,
The first is right, it is not legal to withdraw the money via paypal, as you received what you paid for. And the second thing is right, it is fraud when I sell known defective cards as working.
"Fraud would be, if I sold the cards to you fully working. But I sold the cards as "not tested".
And that is true also.
So is this an admission the boards were not working? Couldn't you have tested in the A2000 you mentioned in this thread!

The board worked fine in my A2000 (Blizzard 060, CV64/3D,
VLabt-Motion, Toccata and X-Surf), so PSU seems no problem
Sure I could have (technically), but I do not have time and pleasue in doing so. I am trying to clear some things up her, so I have a severe lack of time. In fact I have lots of amiga systems here, but no time, as I have a very time-consuming life and job. This may be different as "police detective".
The A4000 board could not be tested in the A2000 of course.
At least now Amiga users will now know what you mean as "untested"
I leave this uncommented, is that ok?
Point in case thou, the Amiga 4000 mainboard was not won in an action, doctorq won that. You just offered it to me when he pulled out and we now know why. I clearly asked you if it was working.
Yes and got you the answer you quoted above. You had the auction number, you had the auction text, you even had the picture (and would have got some more, if you asked for it).
Anyway I will be sending both boards to Amiga France for them to check out. Now if they report they are faulty and tell me why then will you take them back minus postage?
We surely could have found a solution, but but do you really think we find a compromise after you miscredite me on several platforms? This is the wrong way of communication, sorry.
Anyway I offered a solution for the PIV and I offered help for the A4K-board, but you are not willing (or able) to communicate.
EDIT: also you told me you have them checked, but do not want to present any resuld, what should that be good for?
Yes or no? Am I being unreasonable?
Paypal does check the whole situation. They are maybe more objective than both of us. If you are right, you get your full money back, if you are wrong you should accept it and adjust your posting on amiga.org. The posting on amiga-news was cancelled due to legal causes I think. I even did answer you there (but I do not think you are reading my answers anyway).
Can you accept that?
