I left bad feedback for this guy after he cashed my check over 1 month ago. He hasn't been communicating with me. I haven't received the ipod. He said he'd send "another one" because he already sent the first one. He sent me a fake confirmation number. Basically, I've been scammed and ebay is saying they may be able to refund up to $200 if this guy is a fake. I paid $350.
Not only that, but my "dead iPod" decided to work again. So I didn't need a new one. This guy's deal seemed too good to be true. He said it came with 1 yr. warranty. How in the world could he give a warranty? Usually it comes with the store.
Anyway, I should have known from the beginning that expensive items on ebay aren't worth it. Eight people have contacted me saying they have been scammed, since seeing my bad feedback. I am the only person to leave bad feedback, because he left bad feedback for
me saying he sent it with delivery confirmation so why am I complaining?
He is in OHIO. Anyone want his HOME ADDRESS (just kidding)? I am also thinking about contacting the police department up there or something. So multiply $350* 8. $2800 is the Minimum he has ripped off people. Less ebay fees. Ebay seems to be carefree about this, and is being very slow. Then I'll have to go to my bank and get the front and back of the check, which I'm assuming they'll charge $15-$30 for this. Even then, I won't be able to get the full amount I paid for it. Maybe if I could get his bank number I could get the charges reversed.
I really don't need this. I have been looking in the mail every day for a month and it's aggravating. I almost wish he had said "I stole your money" from the start...once he cashed it. Just the anticipation of finding the new iPod. I hope they get this sucker. There has to be something...
Update: I contacted Alan Miller of the
Dispatch, a newspaper in Ohio around the area where this seller lives and he said he'd "check it out". Either 1) he'll check it out or 2) is just trying to get me off his case. I contacted like 3 or 4 people in news. We'll see if anything comes of it.
