@earlier poster

The reason why the address doesn't match with his name in the phone directory is because we sent the money to his secretary.

Blizzard PPC 240/060mhz
Paid £115 1st postage and paying £45 next (when recieved card! :-) ).

I really do think we should wait a bit longer.  It simply could be the s**t postage coming out of Germany that's causing the delays.  Someone also mentioned that he goes in and out of hospital regularly.  Maybe he's just in there at the moment as is unable to reply to emails.  I'd be interested in hearing the outcome of a phone call though...

I know it's frustrating because I really want my card too but lets hang on a bit. :)

There's no reason why a list cant be compiled though just in case it is fraud... Mine's a Blizzard 210/060 w. 64mb.

The point is though, for 11 euros he should have sent it via courier which would have been about 3 days delivery max.

:O

I wasn't all that worried about anything going wrong since I had only recently bought something from Bernd a few months ago but all this talk is starting to make me nervous.

I think this guy is ok.. have been surfing around for his name and amiga.. Look like he was a buyer for some type of amiga club. Think its only the german post office that have trashed all our packages..  :-P But he could start replaying on the mails
A1200.. More info on the project soon.

Hm, I just had a first hand experience with postal services mucking up. Ryu sent me a PCMCIA NIC on Feb. 26th. I only received it today :crazy:.

So there's hope for you all yet :-).

Can you people just knock it of and start acting your age!

The postal service can screw up things plenty so just wait before you start ruining this guy's live.

I also ordered a card and I'm not worried one bit. I'm sure it will show up and if not; tough luck.

@ PulsatingQuasar

You got a point. And he kind of made us a favour for selling the cards like that, if they're new.
I'll wait a bit longer. He deserves it.

What concerns me is, if it does go wrong we won't have Paypal to complain to anymore, so what will we do then?

@Jose

Absolutely nothing!! That's the way it works in every country. People that get it over their hart to scam and don't care have the entire world. And these things happen everywhere politics, companies. The law has never been written in such a way that police can do anything against it. And why is that...... Oh unless you steal a crate of beer. Then you are a BIG criminal.

In the Netherlands there is this site where you can jointly buy stuff to get it cheaper because you buy a lot in bulk. Recently such an action appeared where a lot of laptops and PC's where offered for a good price from a bankrupt company.
To make a long story short, this was a scam, I lost 350 euro's, and the total scam money was about 50000 euro. The police still have to start a real investigation but we allready know that the bank account this money was placed on is empty. Bye bye money and that's really the end of it.

Guys, I've just found out his eBay username. It's "kralle900", and you can check out his current auctions listed. There's plenty of them. He's been listing them for the past few days. Why hasn't he responded to our e-mails yet, if he's regulary on the computer?

On a positive note, his feedback is 100% good.

So has anyone called him yet? :-)

@sir_inferno:

Well I've decided to do a search for "Blizzard, Amiga, Phase" with Search in Descriptions option checked, in hope to find Bernd, that is if he existed on eBay, and luckily it worked. :-)
