I recently sold this computer on Ebay.

A few days after I ship, I get this email

" was dissapointed when the computer arrived with no power cord"

WTF does he want? I never mentioned a power cord in the description, and there sure as hell isnt one in my pictures. Should I send this retard a power cord or tell him to eat my taint?


:roll:

A Power Cord is standard. You should have shipped one with the comp or stated that it isn't included in the auction.

How would you feel if you bought an xbox off of ebay and it didn't come with the cord?

They cost like 3 cents. I have at least, AT LEAST 100. Why didn't you put one in the box?

I wouldn't risk your 100% over a powercord so this is a touchy one. See what he says when you explain there was no mention of a power cord.

Have you ever shipped a computer? Last time I did, it was $31. $20 is cheap. No STFU and go away. We are bashing nick for not including a power cord, not because he undercharges for shipping. That makes him looks good. We can't have that.

Eh...I think anyone would've been pissed about not getting a power chord. 99% of people think that they are specially molded to fit that particular model so it's understandable.

Wtf, your computer sold for 11 bucks, what did he expect? Send him the power cord and tell him to shove it :)

shady. you didn't say that you included IDE cables either but one could reasonably expect that they would be included.
