Everytime I buy something online, something goes absolutely wrong!!!

It could have been worse, from http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/...ead.php?t=1724 :

So recently I picked up Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance from a seller in New York called stylesandgames. It arrived today in the mail, and just to be sure I check the back and saw the dreaded NINTONDO on the cart.

At least my seller was sneaky about it, I couldn't tell the difference at first.

I win!



He didn't say anything about returning the bootleg game either, so I also got a bootleg game for free.

I was going to let it slide, I didn't think I'd actually get a refund. Thanks Peerzy.

tell ebay you got a refund, he is not a scammer, just dishonest

Actually, he is no longer a registered user at eBay...

yes
because of complaints that he was a sammer, let them know he returned your money

[Rip The Jacker]

But I don't get it. He sells defective bootleg games, isn't it better now that he lost his account? He returned my money yeah, but that doesn't mean what he did was right.

I don't know man, you didn;t get ripped off, in fact you have your money and a game, shouldn't you tell ebay that he refunded your money
I would....

But think about it. I ordered the game on the 7th, and got the refund on the 30th. I mean, yeah it's cool I got a half-assed game for free, but if I had known the game was going to be bootleg, I would have saved myself a month worth of trouble.

Not only is it illegal, but it just sucks.... to order a game, wait a friggin week only to find out it's fake, then have to file a complaint thru PayPal. I'd rather not have it happen to other people.

Also, I have a bad feeling this guy has more than one account. Look at the feedback he leaves for the buyers, I've found a bunch of other eBayers from Hong Kong who sell bootlegs, and leave people the same exact feedback. It looks like organized fraud to me... see lynx's post earlier in this thread...
