| My Hilarious Ebay Story |
[18 Dec 2006|02:55am] |
So I bought this video game joystick on ebay. It was very snazzy and excited me greatly.
I read this person's details and it said it would be for immediate sale because they would be going overseas. Great. I can do that. So I go to pay for the item but there is no bank details. So I pop them a message asking them for the details. I don't get a reply passed the date that they stated they would be going away. Upset, I thought I would just not receive the item.
Days later the joystick arrives. I was confused because usually when you use ebay you don't ship something without a payment. I get a message from Andrew saying 'Oh you got an email from that guy with the joystick.' Great. Deep down I really wanted to pay this guy. (Though I made a few jokes about getting it for free)
This is what it said:
Have you received your item? Good. What was the postage?
My program of departure was caught short by 2 days and I had to leave town early.
I asked a friend to post the item to you. He paid for it. I will compensate his expenses.
Did I quote you $20? or did I guess? I imagined that I only guessed because your item was hurriedly packed (great job hey?) on the back of a Jeep ute in the carpark of Target (where I got the boxes from) under a sweltering sun with less than 20minutes remaining before my train departed from Bundaberg station on wednesday morning, the 6th of December after a night on 3hrs sleep cramming 3 'preparation-to-leave' days work into 1. I would have preferred that circumstance be more relaxed than they were, but it happens, and it happened...
But, if I quoted you 20$, please pay only 20$, feel good at having scored a postal discount and have a happy life!
I am presently on the road and may not reply to your emails before monday at the earliest.
I assume that you will fix it up by paypal...
Best regards,
XXXXX
P.s. If you decide that you don't want the item, or want to sell it on, I have another buyer who missed the auction and is very unhappy about it. Can 4wd him on to you...
Now I admired their tenacity here. So I wrote them a message back thanking them and giving their situation a big 'holy shit get the fuck out' (not in those words) and told them that I wouldn't be able to pay for the joystick till Thursday. (I had spent the money I had for this on Christmas presents and some other ebay stuff)
More specifically:
Hi I just got your email.
It said it would come to $15 + 20 for shipping in the original
quote so I'll pay that to your account on Thursday when my pay
comes in.
Basically I received this and didn't expect it to come because I
didn't get any response. Then I came home one day and there was
this huge box. I had no Internet access so I couldn't get in
contact with you.
I appreciate the effort (it sounds like you had a hell of a rush)
and I hope you enjoy your new living arrangements. Hopefully, I can
get this joystick to work with a PC for MAME.
Cheers.
I saw Andrew yesterday at Chantelle's and he was like 'Uh that guy emailed again. I'm not sure if he is angry but he sounds angry' so I was like 'Oh.' I get online today and I found this:
Dear Andrew,
I am glad that you received your item in good order so promptly and am overjoyed that my administrative error has been helpful to your situation
I look forward to receiving my $10.80 (less eBay charges) profit promised in compensation for the labour of supplying, listing, packing, taping and posting this item to you.
Your promise to delay payment continues expresses your deep appreciation for my efforts and highlights our differences in opinion regarding honourability.
May you soon break free from the miserable cycle of living living hand to mouth and have great success with this and whatever project you undertake in future.
I trust that we have an understanding and I will expect your payment promptly on thursday.
I'm not sure how to react to this.
