    My ebay issues take a turn for the worse...
    I'm not a professional seller, so I don't care about what ebay wants me to do.
    I'll do what I can, considering my job's duties.
    If you want diligence more than the game, we can cancel the transaction
    So that you can seek for it elsewhere and I'll sleep tomorrow morning, instead of going to ship the game
    I don't need your money, so I can send it back
    Regards
    Antonio

    So, how do I teach this weasel that it's not ok to say you'll send something, then don't bother, then become nasty when I point out my justifiable concern and expectations?
    If I agree to cancel the transaction the frakker gets no negative feedback and that's that.
    I'd be happy to keep my money but I want the little sh1te to pay!
    Advice please!

    Try and complete the transaction so you can at least leave bad feedback and maybe report him.

    If this is an Italian auction try to avoid them in future. They are nearly as bad as buying from Nigeria most of the time.
    My girlfriend is Italian and she says the same.

    I'd just swallow my pride and complete the transaction, providing its a good deal, and at least get something for all the trouble then!

    I've noticed a lot of ebay auctions and websites now say that they will not ship to italy at all.

    Right, I have told the little sh1tehawk to send it in the morning.
    Once I receive it in the post I will leave negative feedback, he maintains he doesn't care but he has a score of over 600 so he'll care enough.
    I will then report him for his behaviour and hope that there is some sort of warning or ban that can be imposed on the cretin.
    Not going to do business with an italian auction again, and that's quite sad tbh.

    With very good reason. A very high percentage of post goes "missing" in Italy.

    For a first world country its like the wild west sometimes.
    I still love the place though :)

    Christ on a bike, don't say that!
    I wouldn't put it past him to now sabotage the item in some way.
    I'm telling you, I'd smack that fecker about if I could get my hands on him, he is probably the worst ebayer I have had the bad luck of meeting, and I had a problem with a french guy over Raiden 3 a whiles back...

    He's probably rubbing his hairy balls all over it right now as we speak!

    No sniffing this game upon receipt so!
    Once there isn't a dirty brown streak of sh1te on it I'll be ok.

    You see, sometimes Adverts is better than ebay, at least you can get a guy banned for being an arse there!

    hasn't happened yet :D

    Just finished watching King of Kong and I have t say it was an excellent viewing experience. In particular the credits suprize.
    Now it's way past my bedtime and I've to be up for work in around 4 hours.
    Suffice to say service tomorrow will not be at a high standard.

    I wish I was that good on a game. Im fairly decent at fzero or was.

    Jaysus Cidey sorry to hearabout the Italian ebay thing, you should have know, did all those mafia movies not teach you anything:pac::pac:

    Italy has started to become the dumping ground for immigration these days and a lot of criminal activity associated with this also happens including faking of all types of goods. I for one would buy nothing from Italy even though I love the place and know plenty of Italians (all of whom are up to no good) even they tell me it's not a place to do business.

    I have a very big problem..... get your minds out of the gutter sick sick people....

    I want a PS Vita badly but have no fundage for it:(.
    So I was thinking of either selling some stuff or trading in some stuff both of which make me sick to my stomach but the thought of not having a Vita is too much to handle.

    I was thinking of off loading my PSP and games as I could never part with gameboy stuff.

    What should I do?


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 34,811 CMod ✭✭✭✭CiDeRmAn


    Well, you know where we are! Pop a list up on adverts and let the cash roll in!
    That said, given to rather thin launch line up wouldn't you be better off hanging onto your stuff and get a PSVita when there's more to love about the machine?

    Went into a few shops earlier asking about trade ins, seems they'll give a whole €40 for my PSP, not worth the hassle of trading it in at all.

    Don't know what to do now cos I want a Vita really badly:(

    Have you got a PSP Go you'd be willing to sell?
    I'm after one of those....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,041 ✭✭✭pdbhp

    Ignore the stupid little analog thing and its actually great! Slightly sharper screen and 16gb built in makes it perfect for emulation and the likes.

    I've no doubt it's an amazing bit of hardware. But it just doesn't have any titles to entice me with yet.

    What Sony seems to think is cool is pretty much the exact opposite of what I like.

    What do they think they are doing creating a new piece of globally marketed hardware without tipping over to Artane and have a word about product design!
    So, anyhow, how did the meetings over the WiiU and Xbox Loop go? If we see a paycheck game involving dinosaurs in hats we'll recognise your handiwork!

    Absolutely, you can even mod it without flashing it so there's zero risk of bricking it.
