Guys, NEVER hesitate to leave negative feedback on Ebay. It is what other people go by to check if they're dealing with a jerk or not. Obviously this gal here is not a good seller. Even though she "makes it right in the end" because you keep on pushing, think of all the people with less balls that you that didn't complain loud enough and got screwed over by her.

Way back before ebay was even popular, I remember exchanging a old Moog synthesizer for a modern one to a guy from NY. We discussed over the internet quite a number of times, and it seemed legit enough. We agreed to ship out synths on the same date. Obviously he didn't. I asked for the tracking number for the package a number of times and he never replied. Since I had his address and NY is only an 8 hours drive from here, I decided to present my cute little adorable self at his place. Turns out the guy was like 14, and his dad didn't want to ship the synth until they received mine. I did get my synth in the end and I still own the thing and use it all the time.

I learned something that day... I learned that I trust people too easily. I'm as honest as they come and as a result, I tend to believe every one is the same. But they're not. For all the jerks like me out there who still believe there is good in the world, we need to have those negative comments.

I did not make them pay for the gas for two reasons. The first one is that I exchanged a used item I had paid 5$CDN for a brand spankin' new 2500$USD synth. And the second one is that I put the fear of god in them. I looked like some sort of psychotic killer at the time..shaved head..leather and spikes everywhere...boots up to your armpits (hence my 'cute adorable self' comment). And I looked *very* pissed at that particular moment. The guy's father was afraid, and it showed. That alone was worth the 25$ of gas (at the time.... today it would cost less to buy Yamaha and have them build me a custom synth).



@thread
Just an idea.. how about we all create bogus Ebay accounts and super-bid all her stuff? Stick it to her!
