A good while back I bought an a2000 from domy and he didn't ship the machine. We got into the arbitration process, and he of course sent me many nasty, foul emails saying things about my mother and this and that. He finally shipped the machine, when I opened it up it appeared he had taken a hammer to it's insides. ICs shattered, pcb full of holes, etc. He even scratched "f*ck you" on the inner surface of the case. Dude must have jammed a screw driver in the floppy drive a few times, total whack-o

Every other ebay experience, flawless.

I think I would have notified authorities and sued him for that one.  It's not too late you know.


I just tossed it in the trash. Suing people of a few hundred dollars just makes lawyers money and wastes your time, and the authorities just don't have the time to spend on piddly things like this.

I dont understand why would he put an A2000 on auction if he would not want to ship it later on?


Probably procrastination. "I'll ship it tomorrow", day rolls around, "i'll ship it tomorrow". Why do people let the laundry pile up, let the fridge get nasty or put off mowing the lawn? I paid immediately, and waited weeks to get it in. He got ticked off when I went for arbitration. Some people just suck.
