GI JOE RISE OF COBRA NIGHT CREEPER WALMART 100% 2 PACK - eBay (item 390147733087 end time Feb-03-10 17:09:38 PST)

Clearly seen in the picture is the backpack in question. I now have two without a place to put their sword.

What really floors me is that he not only refunded me for the Missile set, but he refunded me the whole amount for the two figures as well, though they were only missing one accessory each. Win for me? I dunno.

I just recently dealt with this guy. He actually wasn't bad at all, and assured me that I'd have my Spc. Altitude real soon after it began to look like USPS wasn't updating my tracking number.

I defend Grock on this one based on the experience I had with him just a few days ago.

I would say that you were misconstrued in what you were saying, Prowl, and I think that both of you jumped the gun a little bit. He at least refunded your money, so he's not going out of his way to scam you. Sounds like he just has to get his shit together a bit.

I got some stuff from this guy and it all arrived quickly and in perfect condition. If you had sent me a message like you had sent him, it would have pissed me off also. Since you got your money back, why complain? Only a week passed since you called it to his attention and then started sending rude messages. Also, I believe it is uncalled for on your part to call him out for bad english, when half the posts on this very website are more unintelligible.

No offense to OP, but you sounded a bit dickish in your comments to him. I'm not saying they are unwarranted, I would have been a lot harsher. For the eBay seller, if someone pulled that on me, I would be filing a chargeback and leaving them a neg very rapidly. I don't care how busy your life is, or how much shit is going to hell in it, if you have a contract (Yes, an eBay sale is a legally binding contract) you need to fulfill it. I've shipped stuff during some of the WORST times, because that's how business works. It's really not that hard to keep track of this stuff either.

This bugs the hell out of me. Not just here, but everywhere on the internet. People could really spend the 30 seconds to run things through some sort of spellcheck, and add *SOME* punctuation. I don't want things to be perfect, just readable. I understand not everybody speaks English as their first language, I'm fine with that, but I've seen how much people who only speak English butcher the language anymore, and it's just out of laziness. It truly pisses me off.

I otherwise defend this guy, since I'm sure he's otherwise a great seller! BUT, let's face facts: fist package took almost three weeks to SEND. Not just receive! Second package took two weeks to send! Is it 'cause I'm Canada? Probably. I probably wasn't a priority. But the second package was missing items! PLURAL! I've never had more than one item go missing before, and this guy misplace three, and I received the package on Feb 23rd. We're in MARCH now! Can he not just take a moment to look? I think I'm entitled to be a bit pissed off! Regardless, I never once resorted to name calling, and never once made it personal. Never wrote him a nasty letter (though I did respond kindly twice to his).

As for his English, I never once said it's any better online, but I didn't want to have anyone here hold back their comments in case they felt they write the same. I understand I came off sounding 'dickish,' but all things considered I think I handled it like an adult. I don't know why he felt I had magically received or found the missile set if he never sent me one. I don't know how he gleaned that from my messages listed here!

maybe its just me, but i try to be nice to people on ebay. I really feel that if someone pissed me off bad engough or ripped me off for a large sum of money that i would go to there house and handle it.

[prowl]

Look, I think people are missing the point here: WHERE THE HELL DID I TELL HIM I 'FOUND" THE MISSING ITEMS!?! I'll give you a buck if you can find that in my correspondence with him. Why did he all of a sudden say he thought I found it after all? What is that based on?!?

YES! I'm frustrated that he took so long with everything and dragged his ass to do anything about it, and then somehow got confused as to what went missing in the first place! Capice!? MAYBE I GOT ANGRY FIRST! SURE, I accept that. But WHO WOULDN'T? It makes sense to ME, why is he hearing something totally different?!
