Argo, your logic resembles closely the morons who bet on my auctions. In plain view, I put No paypal accepted...only money orders and yet I get some schmuck who demands I accept paypal. :roll: Anyway learn to read better next time and you won't be such a idiot.

It's not the same thing at all unless you have a picture of a paypal icon and a link on your page to paypal.com in addition to stating that no paypal is accepted.
Your auctions do not somehow give the impression that paypal is accepted, then state that it is not.

I disagree...my auctions don't give the impression that I accept paypal at all. On the same note a disclaimer warning the unit does not come with an antenna should be more than enough to cover the seller. Its spelled in plain english that the antenna isn't included! What else do you guys want?? The main point here is that people look like retards because they fail to pay attention to what they are bidding on.

That's what I'm saying. It's not the same logic because you never do anything that would lead people to believe you accept paypal. The "morons" who bet on your auctions then demand you accept paypal had no reason to think you would. In the OP's case, he admittedly made a mistake by not reading clearly enough or understanding the Not Included statement. But everything else about that auction made it appear that you would get the unit that was pictured and was also linked to on a vendor's site.

So it's not the same logic at all.

Although when you put a picture up in an auction, you are statting that the item pictured it what you are selling... If you aren't selling the antenna, then you shoudl have taken an actual photo of the item you're selling (not copied one off the web) and used that as a picture.

It may be that he mislead you with the picture on purpose or it could be legit. Tell him you thought the picture was an accurate representation of what was being sold and since it actually is not, that you don't want the item and ask if he'll sell it ot the next highest bidder.

You should learn to READ in the first place.
