By not mentioning the dent, I think he is hiding something. I wouldn't take
a chance. I would return the item to him and leave negative feedback. That
will teach him a lesson. I wouldn't accept a financial settlement, because
if the item is defective its useful life is reduced.

The minute he leaves a neg, he can forget returning it. Did you ever
stop to think that he might have another that he would be willing to
exchange? I'm going to forward the guy Lucky's post to the group. At
least that will allow the seller to see what kind of loon he is
dealing with.

You're a genius!

He is whinning and crying about nothing don't you think? I've
certainly added him to my blocked bidders list. I would suggest that
everyone else here do the same. I guess it does make for good
entertainment though.

It's just like radio itself, entertainment.

Hi Guys

Well my "brand new in Box" only taken out of box for pictures, arrived with
a dent in the bottom left hand side near the switch. It was double boxed and
had bubble wrap around it. The boxes arrived in Perfect condition. Not
crushed at all.

I wondered what the hell is going on here.
So I go back to the auction and take the picture he put up and enlarged it.
Sure enough you can see the dent in the picture if you look hard. I can't
believe this ****.

Take a look at the auction yourself. Take the picture and enlarge it. That's
the only way to see it. Look at the bottom left hand side and you can see
it's dented it on the side. What would you guys do? It looks like it might
have been dropped or something. Notice how he doesn't mention ONE word about
this dent. WTF is this world coming too?
Could the PSU be damaged inside?

Look along the left hand side and move down near the bottom. See it?

Odds are it's just cosmetic damage.

Power supplies aren't the sort of thing people normally buy for beauty.

The seller should have mentioned it - so you might ask for a price adjustment,
or to return it for a refund. But life is too short to get worked up over a
$5-10 problem.

The fact the damage can be seen in the picture if you look closely doesn't help
your case. He could reply that you should have looked closer before bidding.

Obviously if it's dead, he owes you a refund.

So you think I should return it then? He said , his "helper" took the
pictures. I think I should report him to Ebay and leave neg feedback if he
doesn't make good on it.

It's not dead, but I don't know to what extent the inside damage is done.
Like one poster said, how can he be trusted?
He basically lied. He should give me a $25 refund to make things right. I
think I should contact Ebay and leave negative feedback.

Yes he told me his "helper" took the pictures. So let's see, his helper
didn't notice the dent even though it was taken out of a "factory sealed
box" His "helper" said nothing to him about it and just packed it right back
up? Who the hell would buy that? Not me. And he needs a "helper" to take the
pictures for him?

You probably need a "helper" to go to the bathroom and wipe your "Lucky" ass.

Mark, I asked him for a $25 adjustment which is fair. The last SL-11a went
for $20.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...7899 447&rd=1

and I really trusted this guy too. He turned something easy and nice into an
uneeded hassle. If he was real proper seller, he should refund me the $25
and let me post it here for all to know. This world is turning into crap.

Sorry to hear of your misfortune, Lucky. I hope that the unit works
okay. Indeed, as Namikis observed, such occurances as this are "part
of life on eBay."
In the meantime, to vent your anger, try giving that Everlife
flashlight a good shake, okay?
By the way, did all 100 of the pipe screens arrive in acceptable
condition?


Yes the screens are fine. I gave up cigarettes and now smoke a pipe.
