    okay, so here's what's happened.
    I win an auction for 2 objects.
    I feel like $6 is a steal for one, so I offer to pay more. I send, and then it ends up that the person in question doesn't have the thing that I paid for.
    So we try to work something out, but he either has nothing else I want/is unwilling to sell it.
    So I say okay, hell with it, just send back some of the money; I was even giving him some for your trouble, and then he refuses to send back the money, but he will send the One of the things that I won in the auction, which basically means He stole $8 from me.
    What should I do.

    maybe you should talk to the guy instead of complaining to the board

    remember, you're talking about 6 dollars here... hes willing to work with you, he just doesnt like your attitude

    just a scam there
    ditto why he offered the items in the first place

    just mark him with a negative and then flame him over aim/msn/pm all the time

    you shouldn't have sent more for the pen anyways
    an auction is a risk, you either go big or go broke (or somewhere in between)

    agreed.

    if it was a Bright Eyes type of deal, I'd be bitching. but 8 dollars? You cant buy much with 8 dollars, irl ,and in penspinning.

    i said MUCH, i didnt say anything.

    You're right. It does mean nothing to me. If I wanted eight dollars, I'd go beg and get it in five minutes. I'm not going to go out of my way for days arguing with some kid over the internet just to get it.

    One will never understand the concept of money until one has experienced a job.

    why are you guys against nation?

    you can't auction something you don't have... thats just wrong

    Date: Tue, Apr 27 2010 15:54:26

    its not that i didnt have it, its just that i sent out what people bought, and what he asked for, i had already sold

  20. Resonance
    Date: Tue, Apr 27 2010 16:10:52

    So why did you auction it?

  21. +Guitrum+
    Date: Tue, Apr 27 2010 16:16:06

    to sell it. someone else bought it then nation asked for it

    so either nation rightfully bought it and the other guy jipped him, or vis versa

    and i already said id give him something to pay him back but hes getting so frustrated its hard to talk to the guy

  22. Zombo
    Date: Tue, Apr 27 2010 16:23:34

    so shouldnt the auction have been canceled then?

  23. strat1227
    Date: Tue, Apr 27 2010 16:31:59

    well him sending money only to find out the pen is gone is one thing, but i'd be pissed as fuck too if the guy tried to sell me other shit i didn't want instead of just mailing my money back

  24. +Guitrum+
    Date: Wed, Apr 28 2010 02:41:26

    but he asked for other things, but the things he asked for i dont have so he got frustrated

    and he STILL has yet to contact me since the posting of this useless thread

    he bid in an auction for something, then changed his mind after the auction is over and asked for something else?
