A very strong title, but I will attempt to justify it with all the evidence I have.
On the 03/12/2014 I ordered :
LZSK - Stick 532nm 400mW High Power DPSS Green Laser Pointer
Universal Charger for Rechargable Lithium Ion Battery
US to UK 3 Pins Power Plug Adaptor for Charger
for a total of 263$
5 days later the status changed to processing.
10 days after this I contacted max asking if it had been shipped, he said it was still processing.
on the 22/12/2014 the item was processed.
on the 28/12/2014 the item was shipped.
on the 19/1/2015 is when the item arrived im 99% sure based on my records. This was 47 days after I placed the order though paypal.
The laser arrived not working at all. The package was missing the adaptor. I sent max an email on the 21st of January telling him I would like to return it Eventually I found it was a connection problem and if I shook the laser this would temporarily fix the problem. Although the lase was still not in fully working condition.
I got no reply from max, so I attempted to email him again. After this got no reply I contacted paypal by phone any they agreed to open a dispute after 50 days.
The next day the dispute was closed by an automated paypal system because it was opened post 45 days.
I contacted max yet again through email, no reply.
Using a different email address I contacted max directly through his website. Still no reply.
I then contacted max through email, and through his return feature on his website. No reply to either of those.
Okay I have a little faith maybe my email had somehow ended up in his spam address even though I was only sending one email per 3 days or so.
So I set up a new email address and sent another email to him. No reply.
Okay I've never had a problem contacting max before he has always replied to my emails quickly. Clearly he is ignoring me because my purchase is 250$+ and paypal dispute time has expired.
I went to my bank and asked about fraud, they said they couldn't do anything because I received an item, even though it arrived broken and had a warranty.
While I can sometimes get the laser to work it's power has gone down a lot.
I ordered fresh new batteries and it made no difference the diode output power seems to have lost 70% of its output.
When contacting max I was always polite and never harassed or threatened him, just stated my problem and asked for help resolving it.
If anyone wants to alert max to this thread please do, he might have more concern if it has some community attention.
So what do I do? Am I just plain and simple out 260$?
