Several PPC cards on Amibench

[Cyberus]

Guys, has anyone actually received their card yet?

So if I were to ask why you put your trust in this guy and sent him your money, they answer would be, "He who dares wins Rodders, he who dares wins...."



sigh, aimlessly quoting sitcoms....:-)

ok... now will some one phone the guy?

Hmmph, I have a BlizzPPC 060@50/240 with SCSI kit and 256MB already installed. I'm willing to let it go at the bargain price of 200GBP/300Euro, as I'm going on holiday next week and need the cash.

This thread is like a soap opera, full of cliff hangers [no! I'm not trying to trivialise this problwm - I almost ordered a card myself, but was reluctant to send money, so I am very eager to find out what the outcome will be]

Although Binder makes me think of the character Milo Minderbinder (or whatever his name is) from Catch-22

I think you should forget giving him another week, or until the end of the month or whatever, and get on his case NOW!

Any suggestions?

How long ago did you send him money?

What's the maximum amount of time a parcel should take (according to Deutsche Post)?

Did he actually give you a guarantee that he would send the goods (like an email, saying "I'll send the goods next week")

Did any of you pay by credit card (if so, contact your credit card company and get them to chase him - I had to do the same thing a year ago over a laptop I paid for on ebay and never received) - I explained the process in great detail to xh6354 a couple of months back [and never got so much as a 'thank you', I might add] when that guy in the UK advertised  BPPC on Amibench and it was a fraud.

Do you have a solicitor? Have you been to the local CAB?

[Cyberus]

THE most important thing to have to send to your credit card company, is a copy of an email or some other statement by the seller where he indicates he will send the item in return for the amount agreed. I assume because this is evidence of fraud - if there's no promise by the seller to give you anything, then he cannot be found to have defrauded you.


I had to do something similar last year, I sent my CC company ALL correspondence I had with the person who defrauded me, which I had kept. They recovered everything in the end, and even refunded the interest accrued on my CC as a result.

Incidentally, this was a result of an eBay transaction. Despite frequent contact with both eBay and PayPal, eBay did nothing (inasmuch as the user's account remained active and eBay didn't compensate me) and PayPal refunded me something like 10% which equated to ~ 30GBP....

Good luck guys

i have had packages comming from usa that have taken over 4 months! and yes it was infact sent at the day the seller told me, why?...nah just protocols in the customs and this is normal , belive me thats why YOU ALWAYS GOTTA TELL SELLER TO USE AN EN22 OR EN23 package note where it states whats inside and value and the value shouldnt be higher than 20 uk pounds unless u want to pay alot of toll on it (doesnt count for EU country's , i mean from EU to EU its no prob but EU to UK = PROBLEM etc)

But most of the recipients are in the EU, therefore, apart from scanning the packages for prohibited substances etc, there should be no customs to deal with. Rememeber, no duty to import from one EU country to another....


Oh, and UK is part of the EU, despite what some people may think :lol:
