How come they don't make those e-mails that when the person receives it, and they open it, a fist comes out of the monitor and punches them in the face . . .
We just had an "Item Not Described" dispute opened on us earlier today on eBay. Why? Because the Buyer is a retard. . .
We purchased a 1GB stick of RAM off of eBay, the seller says it was pulled from a working system, no problems there, his auction states, "Not responsible for incompatibility issues." We receive it, our computer won't run it, it just beeps at us and that's it. Oh wonderful, our computer's not compatible (we know nothing about computers, and it's an older computer, we assumed it's a compatibility issue). We'll, that's our fault, instead of throwing a hissy fit, we'll just repost the RAM and hope it finds a new home.
In the meantime, we purchase another stick, a 512MB stick, brand new. We receive the RAM, computer does the same thing. It beeps and won't work. Oh cripes, what now? I e-mail the manufacture's website, I e-mail our computer's manufacturer's website and I have ask a question on Yahoo's! Ask - the websites say it should be compatible, Yahoo's! Ask said it was a bad stick of RAM (two bad sticks in a row? I think that's unlikely considering this one is new, and we were very careful with both) It should be compatible right? Wrong. I take our computer and the stick of 512 to work, to show to a co-worker who's a computer guru (whom I should have gone to first). It took him a few minutes to figure out the problem. . .
It's Registered! Our computer won't run registered, it's older. Registered RAM is mostly used for servers and newer computers. We'll, again, our fault, we'll resell on eBay, hoping the 512 will get a new home.
Meanwhile, the buyer of the 1GB e-mails us, very demanding, saying he was going to send the stick back and wants a refund. Wha? Refund? What's your computer doing? "It beeps, you sent me a bad stick of RAM." Not only was this buy DEMANDING and RUDE, he also took a long hell of a time getting back to us . . . 3-4 days in between e-mails (when we would respond to his e-mails immediately). We go back and forth, we're trying to tell the stick isn't bad, his computer simply won't run it. We also wrote on our auction, "Not responsible for incompatibility issues." Nope, he wouldn't accept that. Still demanding a refund. No. We refuse. (Plus, he's got like 1 feedback and is new member). If you were nicer about it, we would have been more accomodating, but since you're acting childish, we're not going to do it. We even wrote that the 1GB RAM was registered. So two weeks and about 4 e-mails later, he opens a dispute, well claim, in Paypal. Basically saying he wanted to resolve this issue like adults and he's "gotta do, what he's gotta do." Adults? The idiot would hardly communicate with us . . . I replied to the dispute, basically covering the fact that it was REGISTERED RAM and older computers won't normally run it and that we have had the same exact problems. There was nothing misrepresented about the RAM, we were just stating what we knew - when the auction was posted, however, we did not know about the whole Registered Ram thing - we just assumed our computer was too old to run a whole gig of RAM - we still wrote that it was Registered though in the auction. The case in review now.
Sorry about the long rant, but seriously, what percentage of the population is disrespectful and self-centered? Don't they ever stop to think about other people? I have a strong dislike for rude people.
