I can provide transcripts of particular matter for this.
Don't let his outward "kind" demeanor fool you. Only reason
I did what I did is because he was trying treat me as if i am a crook
and he was doing me a favor by buying that board.

remember folks, I have no bad or neutral heatware feedbacks. I go out of my
way to make good.
Im sure that if i were the terrible trader that people make me out to be
I would be in the same hole as Logitechfreak.

the scale tipping message From Googly:

""Well, I went through the hoops trying to make that Biostar M7VIZ work. NO GO!
I tried everything, all manner of power supplies & CPUs etc etc.
Dead as a doornail.
You sold me a piece of rubbish. I have no recourse, since I should have figured that out ages ago.
I won't say anything in public about it, but I would like you to know that I am very disappointed.
What's really annoying is the way you treated me as the buyer, making me jump through hoops and all I got was a piece of junk.
I hope you consider that when you next make a trade with someone else.
For my part, I make sure I send out items that I KNOW are functional.
I *trusted* you, silly me.""

-----------------

If this isn't ceiling me a crook, how much clearer does it need to be?
it worked when i shipped it.

I posted board before putting it into the box.
I have video of it running XP ;)

All of his messages contained some sort of subtext that he was calling me
a crook or worst yet, seemed he had no intent of letting it work.
but remember, thats what I think.

IF he had jsut told me it did not work and mention anything about "trust"
or how I was wrong for verifying refs which was because of his negative mark,
I would have bought that board back for 35 shipped the price i sold it
maybe even kick in more for shipping.
(provided it has not been tampered with)

-Googly-
I am not a crook, there was no reason to question my "trust"
I honestly cant imagine who you think you are to interact with me
in the manner that you did when my requests were agreeable and reasonable.
If you had not got heatware revoked the heat i would have left your nick
private since then it would have been worth while taking your talking down
and your gold lined crap messages.
The goal of the situation would have simply been "should I consider honoring
a DOA after this long of sitting"

---------------
for people claiming that things cant die sitting, since none of us saw it sitting
we do not know under which condition it were sitting.
---------------

-Everyone -
For all you ppl no doubt going to berate me for calling him out,
I don't sit well being called a crook no matter how indirect and
have my trust questioned for perfectly reasonable expectations.
I would have handled the talking down if that was all it were.

Proofs of messages from both sides is available including the video of the board working
perfectly and solid I might add.
I dont sell junk DOA and then not offer a return.
(however this case has DOA exceptions)
I expect to be asked of no less than what I have asked of this guy
for any transaction I may want to do.

-More-
I am an a$$h0le but I stand by anything to the way I described.
be it buying or selling.

check my heat and you will see all the seemingly lofty deals i got pulled
in then went out of my way to make good ending in positive only feedbacks.

What is the matter with you? You already had your thread locked in FS/FT, and now you start this?

And you never even refunded the guy!!???

None of us are interested in personal conversations between you two. Have you stopped to consider the possibility that he's telling the truth? Because if he is, then he's out $35 for a dead board AND all the time it took to keep verifying it was dead, AND he has to see you keep bringing his name up in threads.

SHUT UP ABOUT THIS NOW. And frankly, if you REALLY care so much about your reputation, I'd strongly consider giving a refund. Defend your reputation with your ACTIONS, not by starting pointless threads about private conversations.

Consider this a warning. I am not taking action now, but if I see one more post about this, I'm going to take action.
