Boogiegail strikes again!!!

[amesie2]

I guess I should have known better than to try to purchase something from her on Ebay. I sent 260.00 for a 4000D motherboard with daughterboard, screws, and plastic shield. I sent the money and waited almost 4 weeks and still no motherboard, I did email a couple of times and did get a response that she was too busy and couldn't keep up with the orders. Hey this isn't my fault I always pay within hours of a completed auction and only expect fair service in return after I pay for it.

I did file a claim with Paypal and got a response right away from Boogiegail with a refund. I then left neutral feedback stating that item never shipped but did get a full refund.

I am just a little miffed since I was looking forward to getting my Mirage Pro up and running with this board since my little deal with the Belkin 'Y' adapter that burned up my original motherboard. I am certainly looking at either buying another 4000D complete or 4000D for parts. If I can't find one I will probably start selling off what I do have that is good yet since I am getting frustrated with trying to find replacement parts. I currently have 3 4000T's all standard and a Mirage Pro with 4000D motherboard shot. I also have a CSMKIII 060 50mhz with 128mb of ram, and Prometheus PCI board.

I also purchased from Elbox an eFlash 2mb, Cocolino PS/2 adapter, a fast ethernet 10/100, and a 5.25" to 3.5" adapter to put a floppy drive in a 4000T.

I know people have had both good and bad experience with Boggiegail, this was my first dealing with her and it wasn't very good she claimed that her shipping had gotten behind because she was busy with work, etc...

The point I am making is that if she doesn't have the time to ship something that is bid on she has no business putting it up for auction. I noticed several items go up for bid after my email from her which tells me she did have time to ship my item had she waited to post new items so I don't see that as a valid excuse. This has been my first negative experience with Ebay or anyone I have purchased from on the net.

Here is the link Belkin 'Y' adapter
this should explain things about the frying of my 2 4000's plus an Apollo 3040.

I had gone through paypal for the resolution claim which was taken care of the same day by boogiegail.
I wouldn't wait any longer file the claim with paypal if that is what you used and hopefully you will get resolution quickly.

I did some checking on Boogiegail just for my own purposes and found that her name is Thyra G. Runion. I also have a phone number and address for her but upon calling the phone number between 3-16-07 and today 3-21-07 it has been changed which I'm guessing she probably has moved.

I hope those of you that do have disputes against her get them resolved without too much hassle. I don't think she really has a place in the Amiga community regardless of what she has to offer since half the time it doesn't show up or it is very late.

I see she has a few electronic items offered at BIN for around 4,000.00 wow I would hate to fork out that kind of money and not get the merch.!

I maybe should have left negative feedback which I would have done but she did respond to my claim rather quickly of course I did have to file a claim against her first before action was taken.

@da9000

How come Boogiegail is still alowed to operate on Ebay and Paypal with the score she has?

I guess it will only be a matter of time before people will just decide she is a crook and no sales will happen until she opens a new account.

@drewz21

Wow, hope you get your $'s back man that really stinks that she continues to rip people off like that. I can't believe her, it's like shooting yourself in the foot I mean her reputation is going to continue to decline where nobody will deal with her at all.

I really think she did move like I posted earlier her phone number has changed in the last couple of days.

Anyhow I'm pullin' for ya.

@drewz21

Wow, hope you get something 435.00 is alot to lose when it isn't your fault at all.

I would think that Paypal could freeze her account until things are resolved with you kinda too bad that one would have to go that far.
