Miqorz Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Yup.. it happened to me finally. I ordered a "NEW!!! FACTORY SEALED!!!" copy of Final Fantasy IV Advance. It FINALLY got here today after waiting around forever. And you know what it is? A bent in re-sealed box with a used copy of the game. I left him a neutral feedback because what I paid is about what the price of a used GBA game should be sold for, but he advertised it as NEW.

Albert Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Link to the auction? That's precisely the type of individual that deserves negative feedback. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a safe bid since his has a TON of feedback, even some from people who bought the SAME game I did. *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 That's precisely the type of individual that deserves negative feedback. What's the big deal? Lying and trickery do not upset me at all. In fact, I love it when I don't get what I expected. It's like a surprise party every time I open a package! Only babies expect to get what was promised. Anyone who believes what I just said above will receive a swift kick in the silly sack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm generally leery of these big-time eBay sellers unless they have remarkably good feedback. This seller has nearly 100 negatives and neutrals in the last six months alone, and who knows how many people weren't satisfied that did not leave feedback. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miqorz Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 I'll probably leave it as is. I'd pay that much to get it used and twice as much to get it new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophero Sly Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I'm sorry to hear about your bad experience. I recently had my first unpleasant experience in my 6 years on ebay. I purchased a used Gamecube described as being in great working condition. It was clearly and unequivocally defective. The seller refused to do anything about it, accused me of being a criminal, and even tried to extort positive feedback from me. It came as a big surprise to me considering the seller had 100% positive feedback, but a little research reveals that they have a nasty habit of leaving negative feedback AFTER they receive positive feedback--it appears that their efforts to extort positive feedback must have paid off for them in the past. I'm glad I didn't fall for it. Anyway, I'm just about to leave them negative feedback. It will be the first negative feedback I've ever left. No doubt I'll receive my first negative in retaliation.

+remowilliams Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Took 9 years for me to have the first ebay gone wrong experience. Guess I had a pretty good run. I did get a full refund from paypal on the issue though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marksowden Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I bought Crazy Climber from two separate people at two separate times, and neither carts ever arrived. One guy said it was returned by Customs, then he mailed it to me again at his cost, and now it's lost With the other more recent transaction, I have been completely ignored by the seller. Maybe Crazy Climber is illegal or packed full of cocaine - I don't think so. Dickheads mate, dickheads !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetset Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Someone that charges $7.00 for media mail on a small item like that should be avoided. Sorry, but you got what is to be expected from a skank like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miqorz Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 I thought that was a fuck up because in the description it says ALL packages are sent using UPS ground. I ALWAYS trust the description over eBay details. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
