Astron PSU Arrived..DENTED
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? http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=7518289578 Lucky |

Part of life on ebay.
Leave negative or neutral feedback (assuming it works) - but first try to get the person that sold it to allow you to return the item or adjust the price down for the dent. Power supplies are fairly resilient to dents. Test t with an oscilloscope if you have access to one. Trust me, someone with a 183 positive feedback clean record will want to do anything to keep it that way! "Lucky" wrote in message ... "Lucky" wrote in message ...

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, it's totally shot and will probably burn your high-rise condo down. And then the insurance won't pay off because you were foolish enough to buy a dented power supply. Toss it out the window. Wait... look out the window first and make sure no one is down there lest you be sued, and then a fire will be the least of your worries. "Lucky"... sure, you betcha. dxAce Michigan USA |

According to the description in the auction:
This was removed from a factory sealed box only to be photographed. 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 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. |

It's more than half of what you paid for the supply. I would only leave negative feedback if you are unable to reach an acceptable solution. If you leave a neg, don't expect anything from the guy. He may retaliate and leave you a neg too. |

He may retaliate and leave you a neg too. Mark, An used one went for $20 and I saw another one go for $21. And it's not just the dent. I find his story hard to accept. If it's from a factory new box, why should it be dented in the first place? It shouldn't. Now if you follow his story, his "helper" took it out of the "new factory sealed box"and didn't notice a thing. You'd have to blind not to see this. It's not a little dent. The side of the PSU is dented all the way in. So his helper didn't notice it and tell him about it? Come on? If that's true he should fire his helper cause he's not helping him. And he wants ME to spend my own money to ship it back to him? So I have to be out more money for a damaged item he stated was factory new in box? No I'm completely right. If he doesn't make good on a partial refund or replace the item at NO COST to me, I'll put in complaint with Ebay and Paypal about him,and I'll leave neg feedback like people have told me to do. They say he deserves it. That I shouldn't let him get off easy. I'm fully in my rights here and will not be taken advantage of. Simple as that. He stated "New in factory sealed box" but he sent me a damaged supply. I wonder if Ebay and Paypal will buy his "helper" excuse. Then in the future if he has another dispute with someone, they will see he had an incident once before. I will not spend one cent of my money to ship it back. I don't trust this guy. How could anyone here trust him? Let's see if he makes good as an Ebay seller. Lucky |

Lucky I doubt there is any damage to the circuit though you could rotate it in a few directions to see if you hear any rattling. If you don't hear anything and it works, odds are quite good the damage is just cosmetic. If the damage is worth $25 to you, it probably makes sense to return it for a refund. It's more than half of what you paid for the supply. I would only leave negative feedback if you are unable to reach an acceptable solution. If you leave a neg, don't expect anything from the guy. He may retaliate and leave you a neg too. Mark, An used one went for $20 and I saw another one go for $21. And it's not just the dent. I find his story hard to accept. If it's from a factory new box, why should it be dented in the first place? It shouldn't. Now if you follow his story, his "helper" took it out of the "new factory sealed box"and didn't notice a thing. You'd have to blind not to see this. It's not a little dent. The side of the PSU is dented all the way in. So his helper didn't notice it and tell him about it? Come on? If that's true he should fire his helper cause he's not helping him. And he wants ME to spend my own money to ship it back to him? So I have to be out more money for a damaged item he stated was factory new in box? No I'm completely right. If he doesn't make good on a partial refund or replace the item at NO COST to me, I'll put in complaint with Ebay and Paypal about him,and I'll leave neg feedback like people have told me to do. They say he deserves it. That I shouldn't let him get off easy. I'm fully in my rights here and will not be taken advantage of. Simple as that. He stated "New in factory sealed box" but he sent me a damaged supply. I wonder if Ebay and Paypal will buy his "helper" excuse. Then in the future if he has another dispute with someone, they will see he had an incident once before. I will not spend one cent of my money to ship it back. I don't trust this guy. How could anyone here trust him? Let's see if he makes good as an Ebay seller. "Lucky"? Sure makes one wonder. As much as he/she/it seems to fret perhaps it would have just been better to buy a new one? dxAce Michigan USA |

If it works, and the dent is the only blemish on the unit, and you got it for a good price, take it and enjoy the thing. Good grief! If you want "brand new in the box," buy from the manufacturer at full price. Caveat emptor! We all know that nothing on eBay is what it seems and to expect everything to match the description is to invite disappointment and disaster. If you really want to be a bull dog with the thing, be prepared to go through all sorts of hoops, including legal ones, and to generally spend most of your waking hours following up on stuff. It's not worth the effort unless you've paid thousands of dollars. Your best bet would have been to build your own PS. They are the easiest things to build and there are plenty of ready-made designs floating around the net that you could have easily used. Not trying to chew on your bones, but you're just going to make yourself crazy with this. Besides that, I get the feeling no one in this group cares about eBay too much with the exception of certain persons who post public moanings about prices they think are outrageous. They never buy...they just **** and moan for a hobby.

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. 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.

Whine about this just like you whinned about losing that other auction because the seller sold it to the highest bidder, a jap guy, instead of you. Is there anything you don't whine about? If things are so hard on you bidding on ebay why don't you find another avenue to buy stuff from? Guess you would whine about that as well. I bet if you were starving in the desert and someone offered you a glass of water you would bitch if it wasn't in the kind of glass you preferred. |
