    I sold James an Asus EEE PC 4G w/ memory upgrade.

    hkklife was the Buyer on July 11, 2008 AnandTech

    It was good all around for everyrone but we had a few rough spots that thankfully got worked out.

    To make a long story short, we haggled out the price and he sent the payment on over promptly, so no worries there.

    Then I had 2 days in a row where I had some personal & work-related matters come up suddenly and could not ship the item out on Monday or Tuesday as initially planned. So the EEE instead went out Wed morning. I sent it out USPS Priority at no extra charge to make up for the delay and also gave James a partial refund totally voluntarily with no questions asked.

    While the delays in shipping out were totally my fault, I apologized at length and tried to stay in contact as much possible through what was admittedly a rough few days. I wish he had been a little more polite and less abrasive to me during out PM conversations, as I was definitely trying my best to work things out and had not given him any B.S. excuses or any run around, as I really had tried to fully explain my situation to him. Had he checked y Heat evals I think he would\'ve definitely seen my history as an upstanding trader. He also didn\'t appear appreciate the gesture of sending it out Priority, which in my years of trading is par for the course for a seller to do if they\'re trying to make up for lost time or get it there faster/more safely.

    Nevertheless, it all worked out fine in the end for both parties. I\'d gladly do another deal with him again, with the understanding that the everyone knows exactly what the other expect prior to consumating the next deal...occasionally real life stuff that\'s beyond our control unfortunately intervenes.
