But I had to reply to this.
The main reason I dont support buying ANYTHING off ebay is that you have NO WAY of knowing what they send you is what they avertised.
Example Given:
Friend of mine bought three jeweler rolls (For those of you who dont deal in diamonds, diamonds are kept in a "special" roll of fabric which has pockets that hold the diamonds. These are known as jewelers rolls and are to allow a jeweler easy selection of the gem they are going to use in whatever jewelry they are making.)
Anywho he didnt pay, he took them to a jeweler for a extament, he put them in a special machine which uses a lazer to determine clearity, measures the cuts, angle of the cuts, takes a profile image for insurance purposes and stone reconition should it be stolen..etc.
Turns out they were man made, in other words FAKES! I dont recall how much that ebay seller lost, but when it comes to somethin like that I totalie SUPPORT not paying. I know if I ever buy anything off ebay, I will NOT pay tell I have what I want in my hands, look over it closely to make sure..
A: It is what I wanted.
B: It is in the condition stated 100%
C: It works.
D: Everything listed is there.
If that criteria is not fallowed, then I would simply not pay, due to false advertising, and I would NOT ship it back either for the fact that..
A: I already paid shiping and handling for the junk to be sent to me.
B: I aint going to pay to have it shiped back.
C: The fault is not mine that what I recieve is junk.
The guy had the nerve to call him, I got on the phone told him they were fake. He CLAIMS he didnt know they were fake. But he registered the diamonds as GRADE:A flawless genuine pink diamonds. Claims they had a certificate (Like the one I stated above.) but they did not come with any such thing, furthermore I surmized this would be the case since he would have to have one for EVERY stone, there were quite a few "chips" (small stones made to set off a larger center stone in a ring.).
So when it comes to buying, if what you got wasnt what he offered then to bad for him, IF however it was what he offered, then shame on you.
And Sellers, if your going to sell something, SELL what you advertise, dont turn around and go. "Oh this action figure which goes to this I can sell seperatly for more so even thou I advertised it with that and the bid is closed, im just not going to ship it they wont notice." Cause if you do, and it some how (which is beyond me.) is me, you wont get paid.
I havnt bought anything from ebay nor plan to its to easy to get jiped.
Example Given:
Offering working NES
Recieves nes, hooks up dosnt work, calls seller
"Yea it dosnt work."
Seller: "OH must got damaged in shiping sorry to bad for you."
Theres nothing you can do if some one sells you something that isnt as advertised, sueing them will cost ten times more then what it is you bought. So there ya go, word to the wise.
