AARRGGH!! Worst eBay seller EVER!!
« on: October 15, 2003, 01:02:11 AM »
 :-x
I bought this. The packaging was absolutely terrible. The boards are taped together with packing tape and put in a box loose :-x

Needless to say they arrived very heavily damaged on top of the fact they are not in the "excelent condition" as described in the auction.

[color=CC0000]DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER![/color][/b]

I am going to file a dispute with ebay against this guy, what a jerk :-x

check the pictures! , they got tape on em aswell!.

i shopped from this guy aswell and guess what...the gamebox (which he wrote was MINT) was taped with transparent tape ...the wide one...so if i ever want to take the tape off (to check the game out...of this very rare game) then i will ruin the box!

what a lamer!

beyond that ...he packed my item well! ..as in 3x the size of the gamebox and lots and lots of thoose squiggly things which looks like cheese doodles :D

he could have just put a stamp on the box and sent it for all i concern since the box is totally dead anyway ;(.

good luck with the dood , it wont last long until he starts to ask for a comment + he wont put a comment on you until u have written one on him...

my guess...u post a negative...he gives a negative back!.

cheers
Whats up with all the hate!

The package arrived today and I am bitterly disapointed.

1) The auction describes boards in excelent condition, these boards are incomplete and obviously have been worked on heavily. They are in very poor condition even before being shipped.
2) You taped these boards together losely with packing tape and placed losely in a box. They arrived very heavily damaged. Most of the motherboard pins are bent, capacitors are broken off etc.

I'm sorry, but you obviously do not know how to handle delicate electronic equipment and knowingly mistated the condition. Your auction description is entirely innacurate, therefore I demand a full refund including my shipping costs.

I look foward to your response.

Regards,
Jim Farley

Hell I figured he'd be smart enough to put some sort of insulation between the boards :-x

The one thing I have discovered so far in life is that people are dumb, he is obviously a ####. I hope you manage to get your money back though.

@ amigamad

I'm stripping down my A1200 if you are interested in the powerflyer.  Just let me get the tower gone first.

Well... at least you got them intact.
I made 2 purchases from someone and both were a problem.

I won the first item... it was readvertised 3 times before they actually realized I'd won the auction (5 emails later).

They didn't ship the monitor that was supposed to be included.  I send several emails... no reply.

At this point I won the 2nd auction.

After 4 emails and threatening not to pay for the 2nd item they finally claimed it was an oversight and it would ship the next day.

I wait a couple days and pay.

2nd item arrived 2 weeks later.  Looked nothing like the picture (nor did the first item) and it was missing parts.

10 more emails and a week pass and still no monitor.

I report them to ebay for fraud and suddenly I get a quick response and they claim they don't have my address or they would have shipped it.

The monitor shows up... more than a week later... the moron broke the monitor stand getting it off to pack it.  The face of the monitor was up against the side of the box and it was damaged.

And... they leave ME negative feedback.
