I traded a video card for cash and a 7500 aiw. The AIW was to be in working condition all items there but the remote.
When I recieved the card and was taking everything out of the box it had a cap in a sandwich baggie and upon looking at the card saw where it would of gone.
I contaced the buyer right away of this issue. He said he was unaware of the cap missing and I provided him with pictures of the card and cap in the baggie. I explaied that I wasnt going to test the card for it was missing the cap and dint want to take the chance of it messing up my system I needed and was planning on selling at the time and had pics of everything.
Upon seeing them he right away sent the money to replace the cards value and sent me $5 to ship it back. It was all great and I was happy. He was going to be gone for a week and asked to hold it till he got back and then ship it which I did the day after he contacted me.
Now its been like 3 weeks and the card has not arrived but I have shipped it out and I have never had a package get lost before. Granted slow but never this long or slow to get to where it is coming. I also never had one come back to me because I wrote the wrong addy on it. So what would be right thing to do. If I am having to buy the card for what was advertised which was a non defective working card without missing a cap I would have to pay $40 but the card diod show up missing a cap and I refused to test it out of fear it would mes my system up and if I have to buy the card (because it got lost) then I dont see how $40 would be fair for a broken card that was advertised as perfectly working but did show up broken not as advertised or told.
I aslo want to work this out right because they guy did replace the value very quickly and everything went smothly but now that it is lost and I have to buy it it didnt exactly show up as advertised for $40.
Clifs:
traded card for money and "working" 7500 aiw
Card shows up not as advertised missing cap which was in baggie
Buyer replaced card value with money right away and paid $5 to have shipped back
Lost in mail or hasn't shown up yet in 3 weeks and will have to work something out
Buyer wanted $40 for a "working card" with no issues but not how it showed up
Dont think I should pay $40 for broken card that got lost when it wasnt advertised as such
What to do and what would be fair?
