  • Donkey Kongo Video Game + Bongo for Gamecube/Wii

    TheGizmo was the Buyer on February 23, 2007 AnandTech

    I saw Simon\\\'s FS/FT thread and decided to buy this at the price he had listed in his thread.. I did not even bother to bargain. I paid him with paypal immediately, he told me he would ship on Monday.. he did not ship monday because apparently the Post Office parcel service was too expensive for him. So he doesn\\\'t PM me til Friday, to tell me this. Following this he tells me he will try UPS, he then PM\\\'s me again 3 or 4 days later saying my address did not work with UPS website (Bullshit I\\\'ve shipped with UPS a billion times before, and who takes this long to PM someone about the issue). He kept extremely poor communications and lame excuses like \\\"i had to wait for my wife because her office has certain pick up days\\\" why not just use any other UPS drop off location is that so hard!? And to say my address doesn\\\'t work in their system? I mean you can come up with something better than that at least. So I figure ok.. let me PM him and offer to create a UPS label myself and he can paypal me the cost of it, and I will email him the label to print and put on the box. So I PM him and in the meantime I check my email only to see that without my consent even, he has already refunded my money via paypal. He tells me its too much of a headache, and gives up in the middle of the transaction. That has VERY POOR trader writtten all over it. Now he won\\\'t even respond to my PM\\\'s. At least I got my money back, but I know I will never deal with him again. How can you just give up in the middle of a transaction. FFFFFF----. Worst experience I\\\'ve ever had. After much debate on the forums, It seemed that the right thing to do was to leave neutral feedback (advice from the community at Anandtech). I figured a negative was too much, because afterall I did get my money back, so essentially he just borrowed my money for a while then eventually gave it back. But still frustrated me a LOT.


    Response from sxlee
    What a petty person. I have fully refunded his payment w/o any prompting and in a timely fashion. I guess you see all kinds of people on the \'net.
