What happened to the original packaging?

Edit: Meaning the packaging you sent it to him in.

or maybe he just ripped something. Did you ever get undying?
I guess not. Why did you ship first? Who is the trader?

 

[crypticlogin]

<< ... and he tells me neither one works. >>



That's a pretty broad and vague statement. What exactly "didn't work?"

Sounds weird to me. How is the fact that the software doesn't work in his computer your fault??

It's either user error or the problem of whoever developed the software.

Edit: Was the CD scratched when you sent it to him?

 

[clarkmo]

If it's the fellow in your heatware info, you know, birdflier? I would not have trusted his heatware at all. That would have been a cross-ship at best. What is that email addy he uses.Is it legit?

Well, I haven't had your problem with software.

But when sell items on EBAY, the buyer always pays the price of shipping it back to me and I refund their shipping. I put that in my listing. I've only had one item returned, and they did not complain about this policy since it was on my auction.

As far as selling software (which I have also done), I guarantee it Non-DOA, and state that there are no returns. Mine is tested before I send it, adn if there are any problems, it goes to UPS insurance. The main problem with selling software is what's to keep someone from buying it, and copying it and then returning it saying it doesn't work.

In your case, based on how he's acting, I'd suspect he's done the same thing. The only suggestion I would have for you is to contact Safe Harbour and get tehm involved. You shouldn't have to pay for him shipping it back to you IMO. He's already left negative feedback, so you can only lose a "positive" response to his negative feedback.

Tell him to ah heck himself on the shipping. If something doesn't work he pays to ship it back. You aren't responsible for him shipping it back. Little shiznit probably copied the game and is just sending it back.

I don't know, man, I've had some pretty scratched game CDs that worked fine. He must have like a 1X CD-ROM or something.

 

[pulse8]

If he's already left a negative feedback, he's definitely not the greatest trader. Doing so BEFORE the trade is complete is not good practice, IMO.

I would say that he either sends it back on his dime or sends you Undying.

"Return to Sender" is supposed to only work if the original packaging is still intact, complete with cancelled postage, and was never opened by the receiver. At least, that's the legal and legitimate use of RTS. :|

Your heatware should be fine. The early issuance of his threat to leave neg. heat indicates where he is coming from. It's hard to give him too much credit. A bad neg. heat can be removed. Just like a credit rating!! This guy just has to be a newbie from all that I've read. Which begs the question. Why ship first?

:Q but I'm guessing he's an est. trader or else you wouldn't have dealt with him...

A golden member would usually have a little more sense than this, but maybe he's just a golden 12 yr old?:disgust:

Methinks da fella may be reading the thread. he he

 

[Renob]

Sounds like he burned his own cds and is trying to pull a fast one.

 

[spanky]

being a golden members really doesn't mean much (no offense golden members). anyone can run up a high post count and have a higher title. uhh...i better shut up now.. heheh

but u know... the way i see it, the shipping should be split. just my opinion. its like... what would u have to gain by purposely sending him a bad game? and if he left u neg heat... i'd leave him some too.
