DAMN.
I wish I’d seen this site a few weeks ago.
I bought a flash drive from 123456wowo123456 and it turned up, but never initialised properly in the computer. Also, it was supposed to be 16gb but only read as 8Gb when I tried to use it. Also, I could never transfer anything onto it as it just didn’t work.
I contacted the seller, and after apologising, he asked me to return it, saying he’d pay for my return postage, and he’d send me a new one.
I did that, but have not heard anything back from him. I’ve contacted him a number of times asking whether he’s received the item back, but alas, still no reply.
Just the other day, he left me positive feedback. I have not left feedback yet.
Is it worth waiting to see if he comes good? Or am I deluding myself…
I think I will do someone else the favour of listing this website in the feedback of this buyer, which is how I found the site. Thanks to someone else for listing the website in the feedback of another buyer.
I feel such a fool!
asy.
