ecs + e2200 combo. Picked up for him.. he backed out costing me alot of money.
Prentice was the Seller on January 25, 2008 HardForum
I picked him up a combo from frys... I paid for shipping and everything. He ended up backing out after I got the items and had it packed. It ended up costing me about 30$ of my own money to do this FAVOR for him.. which he never said sorry for or showed any sign of it. You should not deal with him on a deal like this. Asks for a favor and after its done backs out. I was charged 15% restock, shipping, usps MO fee for payback and gas. Most was my TIME. I work 7/13s and it is hard to do stuff on these hours. Frys is 20 minutes each way.
Response from dyesanI did back out on the combo; that is a fact. However, that is the not the issue. The issue is that he never refunded me what we agreed upon in the end, which was $90.
Here are the series of events:
-He asks $100 for the combo
-I send him $100 for the combo
-I request to cancel the combo
-He claims he would have to drive all the way back to Fry\'s to return it and offers to refund $77 only.
-I exclaim at the loss of money and say no -- I\'d give him an extra $9 to send it to me instead (for his trouble)
-He agrees to send it to me, but never does
-Out of the blue, he sends me back $67.XX, but said he can\'t pay the rest with some excuse with paypal and wants to send me a Money Order
-I don\'t want to chance my money on a MO because he is already acting shady and there\'s a chance it might get lost.
-I ask him if he has a friend that can send me the rest of the money, he says yes.
-Hours later, he ends up paying me through his paypal account, $22.50 the rest of the money (somehow?)
-Then I find out the rest of the money never comes through and he had removed the payment in Paypal
-I ask what the situation is, and he says again he\'ll send me a Money Order
-It sounded shady even moreso, so I ask him to do delivery confirmation w/ the MO.
-He contemplates and ends up not refunding me at all and calling me a bad person.
-I file paypal dispute.
-He goes around [H] FS/T to post his sob story and to discredit me with lies.
I haven\'t heard many times that a buyer and this is certainly not an exception. Prentice wanted to profit by reselling combos and when he couldn\'t, he tried to cut his losses by baiting me.January 26, 2008

Bought a videocard from him.

He is a great seller. I was scammed before and was very scared to purchase something so expensive. He shipped to me first and let me verify that the product worked. I would highly recommend this guy to anyone! Would do business with him again.

E6400 from H for 85$
Prentice was the Buyer on January 28, 2008 HardForum
The seller has yet to tell me if he shipped the item. He has not gave me tracking and has already given me a bad heat... WTF IS THAT CRAP? You need to get with me and get this sorted out. You NEED to tell someone if you send something or atleast get tracking info.
