These pics are directly off my digital cam.. so whatever anyone this as being photoshop'ed is thinking way too much into it... when i sold it, i felt that this ipod was in great condition.... we might have different perceptions of what is considered as mint but my pics doesnt show any sratches.

btw, he insisted that I ship first before he sent payment, which i agreed to! I did ship before i got payment. He proabably shipped the MO before he recieved my ipod.
 
the "spiderman" is the back of a book... its a black with diagnoal stipes-- i will take a pic of the book.... anyone want to host this now?

You felt that it was in mint condition. That's perfectly fine. What's not fine is that you stated that there were absolutely no scratches on the ipod.

Then what is the circular thing that appears to be a camera lens?
 
Wow. This thread is becoming pretty big.
MaDDingo: Even if you felt that the item is in excellent condition, this situation does not justify your answer. You have obviously misrepresented the item I purchased the IPOD in January, and I barely used it. Its in MINT condition, absolutely no scratches, not even any marks on the sliver back. It is not a wise thing to risk your future trades here, just send the shipping costs+amount for the iPod and get your item back.

Nope--still don't see it. I took MadDingo's pic and enhanced it. Here is the result. It shows the seller's fingers and what appears to be a Kodak digicam.
 
I propose a compromise:

I will give you the cost to ship back the IPOD to me ($7.10)

I will not refund the shipping cost that you paid when shipping the MO to me nor the cost of the MO itself.

I will mail the original MO back and an additional $7.10 with Delivery Confirmation tomorrow.

Let me know if this works for you.

wow thas pretty good.. yea its a kodak digital cam...
 
I can accept your proposal. I cannot accept you sending me back the MO that I sent you. You need to send me a new MO. What am i supposed to do with the old one? It'd take me a few months to get a refund on the MO if you sent me the one that I sent you.

Shows it much more clearly. I guess I was smoking crack (!)
 
Fine MO of $177.10 will be shipped to you.

So this mattered is settled? And once payment is recieved, you will ship back the IPOD.
 
Here's how things should have gone (in my humble opinion):

1. Trader gets item
2. Trader doesn't immediately leave "great trader" heatware
3. Trader verifies that item is in acceptable condition.
4. If not, the traders confer via email and PM to attempt resolution.
5. If no resolution can be found, send a PM/email to the trollhunters and/or one of the more esteemed traders on the FS/FT board
6. Find resolution, being willing to take a small hit to make things go smoother.
7. Both traders leave appropriate heatware. This is one of the most important steps. You need to take the time to give an honest account of everything in the trade. Only by doing that will you maximize the value of the heatware system.

A few things about heatware:

- A negative is NOT the end of the world.
- Obvious retalitory evals can be dealt with and removed
- If you really had a poor experience (or even something you wouldn't want someone else to go through) BE HONEST. Slap them with a neutral or even a positive but give all relevant details: aspects of communication, condition of item(s), packaging method/care, shipping speed, etc.


The vast majority of these disputes can and will be dealt with smoothly and with as little pitchfork-in-the-air witchhunt as possible.

well at least they were both civil about the matter, good job in comming to a resolution guys
I'd agree that neither went buttwacky. Big thumbs up on that account.
 
Its in MINT condition, absolutely no scratches, not even any marks on the sliver back.


LMAO, WHAT A LOAD OF HORSE SH*T!!!! GOOD LAFF, THANKS.

If it's a postal money order, you can take it back to the post office and they'll give you a complete refund.
Why would you need to wait when you're the one that bought the money order, you have the money order receipt.

If the money order was lost, that would be a different story.
