...or Another Reason Why I Fricking Hate eBay
Sellam, you have to choose your sellers carefully. Last week, I bought an
Overland Data 9 track drive. It arrived with the tape door plastic broken.
I wrote the seller and was issued an IMMEDATE (and I do mean just that--it
was about 3 minutes after my email) refund of the item+shipping =
everything that I paid. Seller apologized for the problem and told me to
keep the drive. I'll repair the door and the drive will have cost me
nothing.
I don't buy from sellers wtih negative feedback. There's a neat tool for
Firefox that lets you see negative feedback for any seller with just a
mouse click.
Cheers,
Chuck
