Hey guys! First off, I miss this place so much, and I'm happy to be back from moving in with the girlfriend, spenbding time and getting to know her, yada yada yada.
Sooo, last Friday I ordered a video projector, to watch movies of course . I almost bought it from Amazon for 70 more dollars and gotten it in two days, but I was greedy and saw the same one on Ebay from a seller, new-sealed, whom had a fairly good feedback rating, 99.6%, for 70ish dollars less. So I pulled the trigger. I forgot to change my Paypal address to my new apartment from my mothers, so I messaged the seller asking to simply change the address to my new one, Niko (as he calls himself), messaged me back, a day and a half later, and said he couldn't do that, and to either get it from that address, or have them deny it and he will get it back and resend it to me. The old address is my mothers so I told him it was fine, just send it. So, finally on Monday I got a tracking number, and followed as we all do, and today it arrived! BUT, I got something else instead. THIS:
So, I immediately messaged him again, asking why he never contacted me to tell me this had happened, or to ask me what I wanted to do i.e. cancel or continue with purchase, and asked him where the supposed tracking number is he said he was going to get me, and of course, 5 hours later, still nothing. I feel like this is a stall tactic, and he raised the price on the projector as well, so it could be he hopes I cancel so he can sell it for more money?
THIS in the exact projector I ordered, just for less money.
If anyone has any tips, pointers, or comments on how you would proceed, PLEASE post! Thank you guys for your time, have a good day, and I'm happy to be back in the saddle again! Take care!
