guys like this make me wanna send bags of poo to people in packages:
so far this seller, who has taken about 20 days to ship has done everything but admit responsibility for his actions. despite how he tried to get out of a negative, he's still getting one from me:
--reamed me for not following his "policies" which include the following-- up to 7 days to ship (fine) BUT won't respond to email until 18 freaking days after the auction has ended. I sent a barrage of inquiries because it had been 12 days and he responds "well well, another person who thinks the terms don't apply to them." He's in Indiana, I'm in IL, it should've been there by now, since it was supposedly shipped priority.
--3 days later, and a couple more emails from me inquiring about my missing games along with a nice long letter about why his policy makes no sense whatsoever, he finally says "the game shipped today." this was last monday.
--on friday I write saying the items hadn't arrived. it's an angry letter because I had been lied to and bitched at by this guy... I get this in return:
"my name is rob. justin is my cousin he was in a traffic accident this week and is in the hospital. Your games look to be boxed and ready to mail there is a tracking number sticker on the box. ********
i will mail it out today for you. hes not in very good shape right now. im not too famiiar with this ebay or computer stuff but im helping him as i can right now"
--I send something back saying sorry and pointed out that the tracking number didn't work and if he could check it again, and get this:
"you know im not too familiar with all this stuff but it does say that it may take some time for the number to work on that website there [--lies. when you print a DC number, it says the P.O. has been notified--] i just got back from the post office and it is mailed priority. that sticker was already on the box. anyway i hope it gets there safely and thanks for not taking it out on us or nothin.
my uncle- his dad- died in that wreck too so we're movin kinda slow on stuff right now"
--so I'm wondering why he even bothered to mention this now and not before. I should add that this guy "Rob" types EXACTLY like the account owner "Justin." i'm into psychology and notice these weird little things about people
he uses the same words, the same lack of capitalization or punctuation, all in the same places. he didn't even try to cover it.
--Lo and behold, the account gets a negative from someone, which is responded to immediately and there are a bunch of new items up for sale, the very next day. Pretty good for a guy who just lost his uncle, whose cousin is in critical condition, and who doesn't know computers, eh? he must grieve fast...
--I write back, pointing out that he's a liar. I mention how I was at my brother in law's dad's memorial service this morning and that I think he's a sick
for lying like that. he sends me an email with a DC number that works and tells me he's a fast learner. doesn't even try to defend himself or anything...
ing ebay.
