So I sold my like new steam deck OLED 1tb Version. It was in excellent condition and packed very well. The buyer who purchased bought for my listed price without sending an offer, I wasn't thrown off by that because that is up to them. What did throw me off was when the buyer messaged me later that day and requested that the item be sent no later than next day. I understand wanting something but it was odd because I always ship within two days regardless.
I went ahead and sent the item regardless and didn't think much of it. Well, three days go by, last night I receive a request to return the item. The reason was item is defective and the only comments added were "I am having a problem with the console". I immediately responded and asked what was wrong and never received a response. Something in me told me to look up this address because the buyer had very little feedback, I just had this weird gut feeling.
Everything about this console was in excellent condition and the only picture they sent back was a picture of the box, lol. Nothing stating the damage or defect. Buyer never responded and now doesn't even have an account for me to send a message to.
Ebay has stepped in and taken my side, thankfully. I am not trying to spam anyone, just warning of selling high dollar electronics without looking at the feedback beforehand and searching the address.
I will update as the process continues.
