Don't you hate being stung or ripped off

    Bought a dodgy device from a member. He posted that it had stopped working but then put it up for sale. I'm the fool that bought it. He starts the thread below, then puts it up for sale the following day. My posts are no 29 and 42. Just a heads up for anybody thinking of buying second hand electronics - always test before parting with you money.

    I notice that the member you have bought it off has not posted in a while. They are also a member since 2008. Maybe they are away or something at the moment.

    Hopefully (s)he responds to you.

    Hate being ripped off.

    Quite partial to being tugged off though.

    He sent PMs up to last week demanding that I explain/remove my posts. I told him I would if I got my money back - not heard a thing since - but he is still active.

    And I bought it because he was a member since 2008 and had good feedback. Once bitten.

    He never clicked on Accept Offer so I can't. And I requested it from admin too - no joy.
