    ronin_ was the Seller on September 25, 2004 AMDMB

    Sold me a dead card, refused to give refund on the basis that i might have mounted the card wrong. video card was in obvious bad condition, heatsink was missing some mounting hardware which caused it to tilt on the core.

    heatsink had major dents, and even fungi was growning on the fins.

    Seller expects for sapphire to RMA the card in its condition, but knowing sapphire, they will definatly not.

    thanks for a waste of money


    Response from ronin_
    Ludicrous.

    Buyer is exaggerating on most counts. Over prolong use, dust balls accummulates in and around the heatsink, but buyer prefers to state fungi to insist neglect was the cause. Dents are the cause of 2 screw mounts from using a bigger fan. The card was not advertised to be in pristine, good-as-new shape, it was however stated to have been used 6 months.

    I suggested buyer try to RMA the card because I simply did not know what he meant by "major artifacts". Buyer vaguely explained how it is showing artifact that he cannot read anything. Could be a system conflict, could be user error, but the card was certainly shipped in working condition. I will certainly not absorb the financial burden on behalf of someone else's neglect or misuse.

  • Audigy2 w/Live Drive

    ronin_ was the Buyer on January 14, 2004 Other/Unknown

    ronin is probably the most patient person i know...

    we agreed to this deal way back around Xmas and he is just now receiving the drive...

    i had to ship his package twice b/c there was a problem in customs (he's in Canada) and the package was returned to me.

    the package arrived very fast after i shipped it a second time, but i would have probably pulled out on the deal a long time ago.

    not only was he patient but he never had a harsh word throughout the whole deal which is surely a credit to him as a person and a trader!

    although he only has 2 evals i would recommend a guy like this anytime! my apologies and thanx a bunch ronin!

    A+ trader!

    Awesome seller - I picked up the monitor from his house and he was incredibly kind. The monitor was in great shape and works better than advertised. I\'m loving the sharpness (and dealing with the slight darkness ;) ).
