Trustworthy seller?
« on: May 02, 2007, 08:15:56 AM »
Hi folks.

I've won an auction on eBay and even paid for my item on the 15th of april, but have yet to see my stuff from the seller. Since there's such a huge amount of knowledge here, I thought I'd ask if you know about the seller 'retrohuncho' from Australia? He's had 1 bad comment out of almost 300, so it looks ok to me.

I've paid for the item and have only gotten one response from him via email. Computer problems was the reason he stated for being late. And he missed the delivery date he stated in his mail to me.

Link to my won item:
eBay item

Link to the sellers page:
retrohuncho

If anyone here knows something that could put me at ease or split my hairs on end, please let me know :-D

Thanks!

UPDATE: Seems the item has been sent, at least that's what I just received an email about from the seller.
Regards,

Thanks for the input. :)

After I posted I got an email from him where he apologized for now answering promptly and wanted to let me know it was sent on the 23rd of April with airmail, insured with tracking. I wanted to make sure it didn't get lost.

So now I soon have a nicely functioning A1200 with a 68030+FPU, 128 MB RAM, 60 GB HD  and PCMCIA NIC... Nice! :-D

@ shillard

Great to hear. :-)

I'm always a little nervous shelving out money to people on eBay that I have no knowledge of, but it has gone well so far.

Another source of being upbeat: My Adobe CS3 Web Premium package should arrive tomorrow. w00t! Can't use Amiga's for everything, even though I have a few + a C64 and a ZX-80 :-P
